Burlington, MA, November 13, 2007 -
Starting today, users can backup and restore both physical and
virtual servers using a single application with the general
availability of Acronis
True Image Echo from Acronis, Inc. (www.acronis.com/en-us/), a provider of affordable,
scalable storage management and disaster recovery software.
Acronis
True Image Echo operates seamlessly with all Windows® and
Linux®-based servers or desktops, whether they are physical or
virtual. Acronis also supports major virtualization operating
systems such as VMware®, Microsoft®, and Parallels®.
"The need to deliver a single product that meets
the challenges associated with backup and disaster recovery as well
as system migration between the physical and virtual worlds is a
requirement of today's IT managers" said Walter Scott, CEO of
Acronis.
Utilizing the Acronis Virtual Live Data Format
to separate hard disk contents from the underlying file format and
platform dependency, Acronis True Image Echo creates a
transportable image, independent of the hardware platform that can
be restored directly to and from any virtual or physical machine.
This is accomplished by using Acronis Universal Restore.
Some of the new features in Acronis True Image
Echo include:
- Direct output of VMDK and VHD file formats
- Event-driven backups triggered by disk space changes
- Support for dynamic disks
- Wake on LAN
- VMware Consolidated Backup
- 256-bit archive encryption
The Acronis True Image enterprise product family

workstations and servers. All include capabilities designed to
improve IT disaster recovery, as well as facilitate system
migrations to and from virtual servers.
Pricing for the workstation offering is $79.99;
server for Windows or Linux is $699, and enterprise server is $999.
Acronis Universal Restore for the workstation is $29.99 and for the
