Some of you may remember my struggle to get support from Acronis for a program bug I found the beginning of November. I finally got a response from them that I thought I should share: We apologize for the delay in response. As you have mentioned, that you were taking the back up of your system directly on DVDs, but it was not able to burn the last DVD. We would recommend you take the back up of your computer on your hard drive and split that back up and then burn that back up on the DVDs. Please make sure that the compression level of the back up is none. This would resolve your issue. However, if the issue still persists, please feel free to contact us. So, they're saying "you can't back up to DVDs, even though we claim you can. Back up to your hard drive or a second one, then copy the files to DVDs." This has to be one of the dumbest things I've ever heard from any tech support. I ended up buying Paragon Drive Backup. Their user interface could be better, but the program does everything I want it to and does it well. And I've seen in the past that they actually provide tech support. I know Acronis used to be generally regarded as the best, but I'm afraid those days are long gone.

A month ago, based on recommendations here, I downloaded the Acronis evaluation. I quickly found an apparent program bug when backing up to DVDs. The system created files named MyBackup1.tib, MyBackup2.tib, etc. but after creating them it tried to open MyBackup.tib. I used the chat to report the problem, and also opened a ticket. A week ago, having heard nothing, I opened another ticket. Still no response. In the meantime I bought an external hard drive to use for backups, but of course the 15-day evaluation period was over by then. How long does it usually take them to respond? I have to say I'm not impressed. Steve ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
