    Worked, got my serial.

    Great software, don't mind paying $10 for it, has saved my @$$ before. :)

    Why is it the best?

    Redo backup and clonezilla are free alternatives.

      Here's Clonezilla, and Redo Backup.

      Personally i've been using Norton Ghost for years - doesn't work though with TrueCrypt encrypted disks though - so i use Backup Maker for them. Not a recommendation - just sayin.

    • Shwayne on 19/07/2013 - 09:44

      It's not the 'best' but it's damn good, and stupidly easy to use.

    • eug on 19/07/2013 - 10:22

      The best feature of Acronis (with the plus pack) is being able to restore to dissimilar hardware, i.e. you can create an image on one computer and restore it to a completely different computer with different hardware, with their UniversalRestore feature. Works great for when you upgrade computers or laptops. Sometimes you can just move the hard drives over without cloning, but it doesn't always work.

    Cnet & Expert & pcmag reviews mostly seem pretty good.

    But note pcmag comment: "Includes potentially dangerous features that make non-standard modifications to disk structures.". Ooh.

      Bit sky falling in low tech journalist opinion acronis resizes the main partition to make an extra partition
      By no way a non standard dangerous or unusual feat.

      " I'm referring to Acronis Secure Zone and the Acronis Startup Recovery Manager, both of which make non-standard changes to the deepest and most crucial parts of your disk structure"

      How did you pickup the Plus Pack for $10 ? I can't find it !

      • Kaibosh on 19/07/2013 - 09:20

        It lists for $25, but after you add it to your cart it's $9.99 (so total 19.98 for both).

          i tried adding it to cart and it stays $29.99

    • Vladdo on 19/07/2013 - 09:28

      Still shows as $29.99 for me for the plus pack..

        • Vladdo on 19/07/2013 - 09:53

          Edit: you can get the plus pack for $9.99.. IF you add it first to your cart.. then open the discount link in a new window and it'll carry over.. shame coz I already bought it without the plus pack ;(

          You can't buy the plus pack for $9.99 without buying TI 2013.. :(

        • NimitzHarrington on 19/07/2013 - 10:01

          Works, thanks! :-)

        • saty1296 on 19/07/2013 - 10:12

          It still does not work for me. I requires me to add TI 2013 and TI 2013 Plus pack together at 40% off price and when I click on link here in this post, the price of Acronis pack does not go below $29.99.

          How did above Ozbargainer get it to work? I am surprised.

        • easternculture on 19/07/2013 - 10:14

          same, still not working

          incase my steps were not clear before…

          1. go to link above (true image will be added in cart)
          2. in other window open product page and add plus pack (right now its for 29$)
          3. now remove true image 2013 from cart .
          4. go to product page again and add true image 2013 again

          both will be for 9.99$ now

      • Vladdo on 19/07/2013 - 10:26
        +1

        Ok..

        1. go to http://www.acronis.com/buy/ti2013pp

        2. go to https://store.acronis.com/325/purl-july-promo-ti2013-deep_en…

        3. Both should be $19.98

        I made a purchase of just TI2013, and was a bit annoyed that I couldn't get the PP for $9.99, so I contacted support and they've allowed me to get a refund.. They weren't even aware that the PP was available for $9.99..

        • easternculture on 19/07/2013 - 10:34

          nope, still not working for me, even though ive deleted the cookies

        • Vladdo on 19/07/2013 - 10:39
          +2

          You're right.. i just tried it in Safari & Chrome and didn't work..

          Maybe you have to purchase TI2013 first.. then make a second order of TI2013 & PP (so that PP can see that you already have TI2013 and is available for the cheaper price).. and then just cancel the first order..

          Hey.. i'm an ozbargainer so not everyone is as ruthless as me :)

          Vladdo,

          See my comments below. Once both are in your cart, remove TI, and find it again using the 'Products' menu on the website (says $29.99 on page). Add to your basket and both products should be $19.98.

          Pax

  • Sarfari on 19/07/2013 - 09:29

    Thanks. Best price I ever seen for this program. Long time user of older version that is free to use with WD hard disk. Never had a problem. Even using it to backup Seagate drives. I tried adding plus pack but it didn't give it to me cheaper. Oh well prob never use it.

  • peter05 on 19/07/2013 - 09:37

    just be prepared for SH*Tloads of spam coming from them. I think I receive at least 3-4 emails a week whenever they have "specials"

    also there is nothing IMHO that the 2013 version does over any other previous version since 2008-2009.

    You'll also find that you aren't eligible for the next version's free upgrade as it will be outside the window of days that you're allowed.

    They are pushing hard for their cloud solutions and their marketing emails are extremely annoying

    • Vladdo on 19/07/2013 - 09:46

      To be fair, you can unsubscribe from their spam, and I'd really love to know how you managed to get TI 2008/2009 to work under Win 8..

          these have all been done, you will still get offers on your existing software

          have tried numerous times to unsubscribe, not sure if they have multiple lists for different versions of software, my comments were made despite having "unsubscribed" multiple times. now the emails just get sent automatically to junk

  • eddomak on 19/07/2013 - 09:45

    I have been a user of this since 2007 and it is very useful and has saved my bacon a couple of times. The cloud backup was very slow on uploads though - probably trying to push to servers in the USA. This is by far the cheapest it has been - as Peter05 says, they have been spamming me multiple times each time there is an upgrade, and the cheapest it gets is around $29.99. At this price I decided to get a copy (my current version is 2010) might need it for Windows 8 in the future. Thanks OP.

    • Cluster on 19/07/2013 - 10:18

      Just be aware that any cloud back up to the USA gets your data scanned and potentially copied by the USA government.

    I use Paragon Hard disk manager for backups. Now maybe I'll alternate Paragon and Acronis!

  • cashless on 19/07/2013 - 10:21

    bought this a while back thinking it might work with Win 8.
    I was wrong

  • Shwayne on 19/07/2013 - 10:26

    Can anyone confirm whether or not the ability to clone drives has been removed from the base product? (I.e. do I need the plus pack?)

    I need Achronis to back up an SSD in case it fails and be able to copy the contents to a new SSD. (That is what I used 2011 for.)

  • pax on 19/07/2013 - 10:36
    +3

    Took a while to get the add/remove process down pat, but got both for US$9.99 each.

    For anyone wondering, when you remove True Image and leave Plus Pack in your basket, don't click on the link here again. Find the product and manually add it to you basket.

    • easternculture on 19/07/2013 - 10:41

      yep that worked
      Updated OP with this method

      • eug on 19/07/2013 - 11:23

        Didn't work for me - the plus pack became $9.99 but True Image was $29.99.

        I then removed True Image from my cart and clicked on the original link (the photo) above, and both became $9.99.

  • eug on 19/07/2013 - 10:39

    I've been using 2010 since .. well.. around 2010. It works fine, although recovering to SSDs requires me to manually create an aligned partition first. I think 2013 takes care of that.

    Apart from that, are there any improvements that are worth the upgrade?

    Is the USB bootable rescue disk still the same? i.e. you can create full images and all that?

    I hear versions after 2010 also need activation. How strict is it?

    • Draxxx on 19/07/2013 - 13:54

      I'm in the same boat. I have 2012, and only see very marginal improvements in this new version.
      But as I use SSD's I'd be interested to know if they now handle alignment.

      (Regarding Activation, its a one off during install)

      • eug on 19/07/2013 - 17:10

        What if I want to install it on my desktop as well as my 'service PC', which is used for troubleshooting stuff? How strict is it with multiple activations?

        • peter05 on 19/07/2013 - 19:29

          very strict, you will not be able to run the software until one of them is "delicensed"

        • eug on 19/07/2013 - 19:36

          ahh that's a pity. Is it easy and instant though? Click something in the menus and it's immediately deactivated, then on the other pc, click something and it's immediately activated?

  • EightImmortals on 19/07/2013 - 10:41

    I already have acronis, If I buy this will add to my expiry time?

  • The Buyer on 19/07/2013 - 11:00

    If nothing else this is a good (cheap) way to crossgrade to ShadowProtect.

    • Vladdo on 19/07/2013 - 11:13

      Please explain..

    • theguru1 on 20/07/2013 - 08:40

      From what I could find the discount for a crossgrade to Shadowprotect is less than the cost of this discounted version of Acronis. Only a few dollars.

      Macrium Reflect is fast, however the free edition does not do scheduling of incremental backups. Fast on file browsing from backups. Bcked up 500GB on not that fast a computer in less than 2 hours. Acronis is not that fast.

      • eug on 20/07/2013 - 08:44

        I haven't timed it, but I'm quite sure you can speed up Acronis by turning off compression. I assume the compression level is why Macrium is faster for you.

    • peter05 on 19/07/2013 - 12:07

      IMHO the most important feature of the plus pack is the ability to do "universal restore". this means you can restore your image to a computer that is not physically the same as the old one, be it motherboard chipset changes, graphics drivers etc etc

      however this feature I think isn't affected if you just found the bootable ISO online and ran the universal restore there, there's no license checking

  • encoderboy on 19/07/2013 - 12:39

    Excellent backup software. I've been using the 2012 version for > 1 year now, and it's saved my ass a few times.

    This is a ridiculously good price!

  • stickyfingers on 19/07/2013 - 12:44

    Would buy if it supported Windows 8 :/

  • theguru1 on 19/07/2013 - 12:53

    I had no issue getting the Plus pack as an extra to ATI2013. Bought the ATI2013, then the next page came up offering more copies of ATI2013 and the PP, both $9.99USD each.

  • kasp on 19/07/2013 - 13:15

    To be honest I don't really like the newer versions of Acronis. Ever since they released version 10 it has been going downhill.

    Our backups never ran smoothly after 10 and needed a fairly frequent kick in the bum to start working again. This was on all of our servers and desktops. This is why we moved away from Acronis and went to shadow protect.

    Also restoring was painful.
