I couldn’t resist.Ĭlicking on the New Sync button brings up the following box where you can specify a folder to synchronize. The obvious choice was to click on the New Sync button as shown here. Clicking on the Synchronization tab told me that I did not have any syncs yet. The option is available to Sync files with friends, family or co-workers over the Web, or simply sync with local folders, including USB flash drives or external hard drive devices. The next tab is the synchronization screen where you can sync data between one or several computers. This is what you will see under the Backup and Recovery tab. This screen is also where you will find tools like Disk and Partition backup, Online Backup, Create a Bootable Media, Browse backups and recover from your choice of older backups. Acronis True Image Home is obviously backwards compatible with older versions. I was shocked to see that it had found backups and drive images that had been done years ago with older versions of the program. There are tabs on top that give you access to the Backup and Recovery tools, the Synchronization utility and other tools and utilities that are available. This slide shows how you can sync data on your computer with your other computers, computers of your friends, local devices and online backup. If you want to learn about the new sync feature, click the page and it shows you a little slide show of how it works. Here is a screen shot of the new True Image Interface.Įach of the pages gives you a tour of the backup subject in a cartoonish, easy to understand kind of way. You can take a short tour about how to back up your computer, learn how to recover your system and files and check out a simple slide show about the new file sync module. It shows little page diagrams giving you the option to learn more about the different aspects of the program. The first impressive thing to note about the new version is the new interface. The installation of Acronis True Image was uneventful. There looks to be many improvements to True Image that makes this backup software even more robust than ever. New to this version is the ability to sync files and folders with multiple computers, improved network backup capabilities and a way to take advantage of an excess of 2 terabyte drives that some OS’s do not allow. This review of Acronis True Image Home will mostly focus on the new features of the already renowned computer backup and recovery software. True image allows you to take an image of your hard drive to the cloud and do full incremental backups directly to the online storage service.
