Having read some of the more shocking accounts of users experiences with both Norton Ghost and Acronis True Image, I thought I would plump for a relative outsider. What a mistake. This software does not allow bootable media to be created, instead relying on a certain Windows PE CD to boot the computer, this takes ages. If you are using a laptop, you only have the one optical drive available, which has the Windows PE disc in, so removeable media is out of the question anyway. Similarly, this would not access my external USB2 hard drive to read an image file off there either. In short, it will only work over a network (I presume, since I haven't tested this).This software cannot restore an image to the system drive, which I would have thought to be an essential feature! If you want to back up another drive, you can achieve the same result by simply sticking everything in a zip file, it would probably be smaller than the extremely poor compression options offered by O&O. This software gets one star because the interface looks pretty, but it does not do half of what one would expect at this price. Avoid.
Incidentally, I then bought a copy of Norton Ghost 9 (2003) from the Amazon marketplace sellers, which does create bootable media. Unfortunately having "successfully" completed the back-up process, I decided to test its restore function, at 26% of the way through, it ejected the DVD and asked politely for disc 2, which definately does not exist. Had to reformat it in the end.
