iPhone and Android smartphones are supported, in addition to iPad and Windows tablets. The Acronis True Image Cloud version allows cloud users to also back up their mobile devices. Acronis True Image can also create a copy of Acronis Rescue Media, a bootable DVD that contains a copy of Acronis True Image and can restore backups to a computer not bootable in the normal way, so long as a good boot drive (existing or new) is available. Acronis True Image can install Acronis Startup Recovery Manager (ASRM), a computer program that helps restore backups at boot time. It can also mount a disk backup as a virtual disk, readable in the same way as any disk drive.Īlthough backups can be restored when the system is running, a major purpose of backup is to restore the system when it fails to start. Acronis True Image can browse the contents of backups and restore them partially or entirely. The program can back up a system hard drive while the OS is running. OperationĪcronis True Image can make two types of backups: file backup, backing up user-specified files and directories, and full system images, which are exact snapshots of an entire disk partition. Later server backup software was renamed 'Acronis Backup'. Until release 9 there were versions of Acronis True Image for personal and business users, with business versions named Acronis True Image Server. Both editions are available at retail outlets. Successive versions of Acronis True Image are the local backup editions. Acronis True Image Cloud is a subscription-based software plus service offering that allows both local and online backup with unlimited cloud backup, and offers backup for a selection of mobile phones and tablets.

Several editions of Acronis True Image are available.
