To wrap this up (maybe) Imaging should be just one part of your backup strategy. Consider the possibility that your backups may not work, you...
@darkroomevil If you want to test on production machines (because you have no other options) get yourself some spare harddisks and use those...
I agree that this forum has a better all around discussion as compared to many forums that typically discuss issues. That said, read reviews here...
Depends on how much you want to rely on the imaging software to rescue you from disk failure, OS corruption or other hardware failure. Also, what...
In my testing, V3 beta left me wondering if its solid enough to rely on. 1) I tried to convert a few images to VHD virtual machines, but they...
Based on my experience they did a good job hiding a real phone number that a human answers. UK Company records have a phone number that is...

Would appreciate some help scheduling a FULL job using encryption. I create the job using the IFW GUI and schedule it at the last step. The...
Interesting. Are there any other imaging apps that do true sector level backups? Also thanks for all the replies. Helpful group here.
Brian Thx for the reply. If your Differentials take 3 minutes, how long do your Full backups take? My Differentials seems to take nearly as...
Why do differential images takes just as long as a full image when using IFW 2.64? Yes, the filesize for the -diff is way smaller, but the time...
Well, after my experience with Macrium's support department, this is not the best solution if you EVER need their help. They tend to be very...
Thanks for the advice. I am testing IFW now. Yes, very manual configuration as compared to Reflect, SP or BESR. I have heard nothing but good...
Thought I would share my experience with Macrium. I may post more details in another thread, but the gist is that V5 *may* be a half decent app,...
Did you forget to take your happy pills?
I saw this program but who is Kervier? They have no address or phone number on their website. I did a WHOIS and was not surprised with what I...
So, building boot media with V5 is easy. They did it right this time. No idea if it will work after 30 days. I suppose you could either ask...
"hide knowledge"? Not sure what you mean. I'm not hiding anything. I provided links to Wikipedia so you could form your own conclusion....
Thank you for the link. Could prove to be helpful. I will investigate further. Still waiting on EFI support...
Reflect V5 Hot imaging definitely restores at least some restore points. I just restored an XP test system and there's at least 10 restore points...

I cannot argue the value of IFW, however I view backups as insurance. Since IFW does not include proper scheduling of differentials, I would have...
I hear you. At some point Terabyte will upgrade to V3 and users will have to $ to upgrade. I'm hopeful V3 will being some usability improvements...
Its actually $38.94 (wherever did they come up with that figure?) for IFW which includes licenses for Windows, Linux and DOS. Aside from the...
