I certainly love to try new software so I will try this and do my own comparison based on different needs. With discount pricing they are actually both about the same as Amazon sells Acronis for $19. Although I have not seen the reliability concerns you have, I certainly will try download and try this. Also you can find Backup and Restore Home version for around $20 depending on if you can find it on sale or not and "Restore to Dissimilar Equipment" is still included. They have a comparison on their web site that you can use to compare.
Hard Drive Manager Pro is kind of expensive, but they offer other products line Hard Drive Manager Suite that is about 1/2 the price, and does almost all the things that Pro does.
Also if you want all the extras that Arconis offeres that can double your cost. Paragon is cheaper than Acronis by a good margin. It can Clone from any size Drive to any size Drive, it doesn't have to be larger, it can be smaller as long as the data fits, Win PE recovery enviornment(Windows Pre-install Enviornment).Ħ.Trial Software proved its Superiority for me.ħ. Re-partition on the fly, Clone, Wipe the drive, Defrag, make VMDs (virtual Disks), as in Physical to Virtual, Virtual Adjust (so that it will make sure that it will work on the VM software that you are using). Hard Drive Manager can do many things with the hard drive. Options that Acronis offered for a price were included with Paragon, Like "Restore to Dissimilar Equipment", and RAID support, Win PE Recovery (Windows Pre-Install Enviornment).ĥ. Reasons Why I chose Paragon over Acronis:ģ. This being the case we proceeded to test Paragon to make sure that it was compatible with our software. I am not sure why, but Acronis was my first procuct of choice so I was really dissapointed that it failed so frequently. When doing the testing I found that Acronis failed at scheduled, and non-scheduled, network backups more frequently than it succeded. Our company produces equipment that are PC controlled and these systems with our own software have a very complicated configuration that requires a huge amount of time to set up properly (as in Weeks, not hours) so having a good backup solution is extremely important. I recently did a study for the company I work for about backup software products so I tried all that were not enterprise solutions. I just want to add my 2 cents worth here.įirst let me say that I do not work for or have any affiliation with Paragon, so I have no reason to perfer it over any other software.Īlthough Acronis is a good product I have had much better luck with the Paragon software. I Just listened to Podcast #68, where PCDoc talked about Acronis 2012.
