Also in the ‘very nice to see’ list, is the free version supports everything from MBR to GPT to hardware RAID to even Dynamic Disks (aka Windows software RAID).
The same is true of sector by sector backups which many usually hold back for the ‘paid’ version. You can however do a ‘hot backup’ in that the entire disk/partition can be backed up without first rebooting the system… a very nifty feature that few free applications allow for. will only be available in the paid version. you do not want to backup/restore say ‘.doc’ files), modifying NFTS permissions, advanced configuration of the backup scheme, real-time automated backup scheduling, encrypt the backup file, split the file to a set size (instead it will be one BIG file), or deploy an image to multiple systems via your LAN, etc. In basic terms you can use the free ‘standard’ version to backup and restore a disk (and even create a Windows PE or Linux based bootable rescue disk… which not many free versions allow) but the more advanced features such as filtering file types (e.g. Third, and most importantly, your backup and restore options will also be somewhat limited. Firstly, the Clone option is basically only a placeholder meant to entice you to pay-up, and the utilities will be somewhat hobbled (ie when you select some you will be asked to upgrade before you can use them). This layout and options are nearly exactly alike regardless if you are using the free trial version or the paid version. Obviously, if you want to start a cloning operation and clone one drive to another you would select the Clone button and when pressed the rest of the application’s screen would change to that section’s options.
Once again, very obvious and self-explanatory… just the way it should be. These are ‘Home’ (which is self-explanatory), Backup (ditto), Restore (ditto redux), clone (obvious), and Utilities. Running along the left side of the screen will be five major sections.
For those who have never used a backup & restore application before it will take you mere seconds to ‘get’ the underlying philosophy behind the UI. So much so anyone who has used older versions of Acronis will be right at home. When you open Aomei’s Backupper for the first time you will be greeted with a User Interface and layout that is very, very reminiscent of Acronis True Image.
