to the entire line of Acronis products

Woburn, Mass., May 19, 2010 - Acronis, (http://www.acronis.com), a provider of affordable, scalable onsite and offsite backup, disaster recovery and security solutions, today announced the release of a new special discounted pricing program for qualified educational institutions.

Beginning immediately, public and private educational institutions will be able to purchase Acronis products at a specially discounted rate - 30% off of suggested retail pricing for qualified customers located in North and South America.

Acronis has been a preferred vendor for educational institutions for many years, offering solutions for imaging and deploying systems. School districts and higher education institutions rely on Acronis software to move, manage and maintain vital information.

"Acronis has a history of providing disaster recovery and system deployment solutions to the academic world," said Jason Coville, director of sales operations for North America. "By introducing a special pricing program for educational institutions, we hope to expand our solution offerings to a greater audience of academic institutions."

Acronis offers comprehensive, reliable, and cost-effective backup and recovery, and system-building products for IT infrastructures using image-based technology. Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 Advanced Server works with both physical and virtual servers, as well as workstations, in either Windows® or Linux® environments.

Configuring PCs and servers for deployment, handling routine system failures and responding to natural and human disasters are just some of the challenges educational IT teams face to secure information technology systems and keep them operational. Acronis Snap Deploy® 3 is a tool that academic institutions can leverage to deploy or restore servers quickly using a standard configuration for a new machine.

Beginning immediately, public and private educational institutions may purchase the entire line of Acronis products at the discounted price through authorized Acronis resellers.
