The $100-yearly Premium version ups that to 1TB of online storage plus Active Protection, which checks images and the program itself to see if anything has been altered, to fend off ransomware. The $40-yearly Plus version offers 50GB of online storage as well as backup of your Facebook page, phone support, and updates. Those are just the features in the Essential version, which costs $50. There’s also a one-way (mirroring) function for syncing a folder to a destination, as well as client apps for your mobile devices to keep those backed up. There’s every conceivable backup option: incremental, differential, super flexible scheduling, pre/post operation commands, email notifications, just to name a few. In addition to imaging your system, whole disks, partitions, and groups of files, there’s a boot-time startup recovery option and an optional hidden partition for images.

Little time-wasters like this appear throughout the interface.ĭesign oddities or no, True Image 2017 is a titan when it comes to features.

It’s pretty, but don’t grab the dark portion of the slider-that’s the background. It’s light years better than it was before a re-design several years ago, but there are still little oddities, such as thin scroll bars with light-colored sliders on a dark background (the exact opposite of the Windows standard) that require more cognitive effort than they should. True Image 2017 has an attractive interface that’s relatively easy to use-once you’re familiar with it.
