Acronis True Image Home 2009 is intuitive backup software for home users, Numerous new and enhanced features in a Windows Vista look and feel can be used very easily; create a backup strategy in just a few clicks. System and data are effectively protected against loss. Other features such as backup consolidation, dual backup, and an enhanced task scheduler with a clearly arranged status display, combine to put the multiple award winning Acronis True Image Home ahead of other backup applications.

Was really impressed by the 15 day free trial available on the Acronis website so ordered two copies, one for use on a PC running XP and another for use on a machine running Vista. However, during the installation process you have to enter a 64-digit serial number that’s printed on the CD slip. Unfortunately the installation program reported the serial numbers on both copies as invalid. No reference to this problem on the Acronis website and no response from the e-mail sent to tech support after more than 48hrs. Eventually got to speak to someone on Acronis Livechat and they informed me that the products had been shipped with defective serial numbers. Simple solution was to go to the link, which they provide, and exchange the defective serial number for a new one. Problem solved.

Rather than purchase on-line from Acronis I purchased a discounted package from Amazon. Apart from saving some money this also provided me with a bootable CD and a handy quick start guide. (Full guide available from the Acronis website).
