None better 
I have used Paragon for almost two years. I haven't found a backup that is as fast at restoring my whole system as Paragon. 15-20 min tops, my whole system is back. Really, it can't get any easier, can it? You back up the drive, you restore it after creating a media disk, it's that simple and fast. Create numerous back ups limited to your drive space of course. It's the best back up and restore in my opinion. Can't beat the price either.

Excellent software, confusing support 
My company has used this product since version 7.0 and we always buy the upgrades. The one complaint we have is that when it comes time to upgrade, their web site is extremely confusing. Login>my account> ummm? upgrade button, says buy now, shows full price, ummm. Contact support, wait til tomorrow.

Best choice 
This is the best choice for drive back-up/imaging on Win+Linux platforms. The closest equivalent is Acronis but Paragon offers something more : resizing of partitions while for Acronis you must buy another product for that. Paragon support HPFS that Acronis doesn't, but Acronis support ReiserFS that Paragon doesn't. Beside Paragon being superior IMHO, I had to go to Acronis for Paragon didn't detect my external case USB 2.0 HD, despite the documentation listing USB 2.0 as supported. Maybe it is just me, something wrong on my hardware. Anyway, both paragon and Acronis offers a full-functional try-out, so there is no reason for you to choose the wrong one. They are very close and only in specific situation may you feel the difference.
