By this time, nearly everyone should know the name Acronis. In a short time, it’s managed to build itself into a real force in the data safety field. I say data safety, because the whole focus of drive imaging and databackup software is to keep your system and its data up and safe. The news part of this is that Acronis has just released True Image version 9.

The last version of its True Image product has been hailed as a real rival to Norton’s Ghost product and the new version looks beyond the bounds of traditional drive imaging to include real data backup as well. All this is wrapped in a blanket of new and improved features that can make it the most pwerful tool for data safety that you own.

Acronis, Inc., the technological leader in storage management solutions, launched Acronis True Image 9.0, a consumer retail version of the most advanced offering in its expanding family of award-winning workstation and server disk imaging, backup, and disaster recovery software. The software now offers file-based backup capability to the industry-leading disk-imaging and disaster recovery capabilities, giving the user the option to back up individual files or folders in addition to the complete system backup.
