April 19, 2007, Burlington, MA - For the third consecutive year, Readers of Redmond magazine named Acronis True Image as a preferred product for "Drive Imaging", according to results published in the January 2007 "Best of the Best" issue. For the first time, Acronis True Image also was named a preferred "Backup System" product, coming in a virtual dead heat with Computer Associates' BrightStor Enterprise Backup.
"Redmond readers put these products through their paces in real world environments," said Doug Barney, vice president and editorial director of Redmond Media Group. "Any product that wins a "Best of the Best" of the world has been proven in these grueling environments."
"Readers of Redmond magazine are on the front line of IT, maintaining mission-critical systems and keeping corporate data, a most precious commodity in the business world, flowing," said Walter Scott, CEO of Acronis. "They are among the industry's most demanding and certainly know the difference between quality products and hype. We're proud to be recognized by this august group."
