As of November, 2007, we have switched our backup system to Acronis True Image Workstation. This software is reasonably priced and very powerful. It is designed to create true image of your system by creating the actual partitions on your hard drive.
- The per-license price is very reasonable compared to the competition.
- Backups are simple to implement.
- The backup speed is fast.
- The backup files can be highly compressed.
- The backup files are actual disk images and can be used to restore a Windows computer from "bare metal."
- With the Universal Restore option, it is possible to restore to a completely different computer and hard-drive than the one backed-up.

This backup software was the right choice for us and I still highly recommend it. Every recovery works perfectly. We have made good use of the "Mount Image" feature which lets us boot into backup files as if they are actual drives. Being able to recover an earlier version of source has been our main use.
