I prefer Acronis backup solution, because it's much more convenient for me. And what do you think about these two products? I'd like to see your comparisons.

True Image Server Edition is the best I have used, just load the boot disc and away you go!

Never used either one of them, so I wouldn't know.

i choose acronis cause that's what i use. but is not a fair poll only with 2 choices.... u should add also norton ghost, paragon software I think is also making some.....etc....

depends on which type of backups you are talking about.

i use veritas for databackups and ghost for image backps.

I am with Him too.

R-Drive Image 3.0??

you mean 'symantec livestate recovery' don't you?

however i've tried both and now i'm using symantec one cause it's faster and works much better on my opinion.

just load the boot disc and away you go!

it's not the only one with boot disc. livestate recovery has its own boot disc

have a nice day

Ate those 2 open source? 1 paid one that has worked well for me is from a company I used to not liek. Iomega backup pro.

True Image .

I using Acronis Image 8.0 and 8.0 Server,

Acronis is No.1 for me, taste is a different...make your choice

I am reading post about backup software. Some back up the whole partition and some just backup the data. Which one would be best to back up the OS along with drivers and programs to make it easy to restore these in case of a castrophy?

Use Norton Ghost. Not familiar with the other 2. Is there a functional difference?

I recently started using Acronis solution, and i have to admit: IT IS GREAT.

Sorry, but I've never heard of R-tools before.
