Great - but don’t upgrade
Works great, won’t upgrade because of new license policy
Pros
Seems very reliable. Have been using it for a couple of years now.
Cons
New license policy. This makes you not own you software any longer.
Response from Paramount Software
We have also introduced an LTSC license for customers who purchase regularly or in volume. This offers a one-time purchase license, stable product version with critical security updates, a choice of 3 or 5 year support.

No support for free trial
If you offer a “Free Trial” to entice a potential buyer to purchase your product, it would be prudent to offer support if the potential buyer has a problem. It’s like a car dealer offering a test drive of a new car, but ignoring you if the car breaks down.
I will not be buying the software, and I’ll post negative reviews for a less than satisfactory experience.
Pros
It was easy to setup and set up an image backup
Cons
I couldn’t get restore to work. When I requested assistance they responded that there was no support for the free trial and directed me to their knowledge base. I couldn’t find a resolution to my problem there.
Response from Paramount Software
Larry,
I'm really disappointed that you got this response. We all know that 100% of people who can't get a trial to work don't buy the product, so we *do* support free trials and I'd encourage anyone who is told otherwise to contact us. NB: To be clear, we don't support users of our former free product, which has been discontinued - a free trial is supported.

Nice lean product
It does the things that it supposed to do. A nice lean product with no additional (useless) "stuff". Just a product that does what it is bought for to do.
Pros
That we can buy a perpetual license, was the prime reason. The units we work with are after shipment off-line, so a annual subscription is not possible. In the past we used Acronis, as they went to a subscription version, we selected your product. (so please keep this feature, otherwise we need to look for something different )
Cons
None, it works fine. I never had an issue with your product.
Response from Paramount Software
Hi Bertin,
I just want to draw your attention to our LTSC licences for regular purchases or large volumes, which provide a one-time purchase/perpetual license, a stable version of Macrium Reflect (v8.1) with a focus on critical security updates only, and a choice of 3 or 5 years of support. The LTSC license can also be offline activated and allows the machine to never need to go online - from activation to backup. Contact us if you would like to learn more.

Macrium Reflect: Excellent for Music Professionals
Marcum Reflect always works when I create a backup image of over 3 Terabytes of my music studio laptop for my business. Macrium Reflect X is able to do this in a little over 1 hour to my external SSD. This can be done even quicker using faster drives. Macrium Reflect gives me the peace of mind I need in case my Laptop ever ceases to function. I can rely on the fact that I can always restore my image to different to a different machine using the bare metal restore feature. This saves a ton of time having to reinstall over 3 Terabytes of music creation software & sounds, as well as having to reconfiguring everything. With Reflect I can rest assured I will always be able to re-open project files as the system will remain exactly the same if restore is ever necessary. Reflect is probable the most important software that I use to ensure my business will always remain in operation as long as I have my data in-tact. I recommend Reflect to anyone that needs their data safe.
Pros
It includes a bare metal restore image feature.
Cons
The UI design, but I understand the minimal approach for better performance.
