Acronis debuts innovative system utility software line that appeals to all computer users
South San Francisco, CA, August 29, 2002
Acronis today unveiled its new line of system utility software,
and announced new design and technology innovations that promise to
make system utilities much easier for PC users at all levels to
understand and use. The new Acronis system utilities include
one-click Windows XP-styled user interfaces that make program
operation and navigation simple. They also include easy-to-follow
wizards that ensure users complete their desired tasks
successfully. The new Acronis system utilities, five total, will be
available on September 5 in leading retail stores throughout North
American and online at www.acronis.com.
"Acronis is the new standard in system utility
products," said Dennis Burke, director of business development at
Acronis. "For years, there has been little innovation in this
category, especially in design and interfaces, thus the products
have been very difficult to understand and operate for most
computer users. For instance, some products still run on DOS and
other antiquated platforms, and only a handful of computer users
are going to pay good money for outdated technology. Acronis
products are developed using the most innovative technology
available, and they are far superior, and much easier to use, than
existing system utilities."
Acronis is known as a technology leader in areas
such as hard disk management, multi-boot technology, data
migration, system backup and other core system areas. But
with the release of the five new system utility titles today,
Acronis also becomes the leader in system utility performance,
usability and design.
The new Acronis system utilities are also
extremely flexible. They allow inexperienced and novice PC users to
operate in "automatic" mode and work with program wizards to
quickly and easily complete desired tasks. And more advanced PC
users, even professionals, can work in "manual" mode and have
greater control over their Acronis products.
The new Acronis line-up includes:
Acronis Privacy Expert 2003, a powerful
privacy utility that securely obliterates PC user's computing and
surfing traces. And unlike many products that merely delete files
and data, Privacy Expert completely wipes files clean, including
free disk space, thus guaranteeing the data can never be recovered
or accessed.
Acronis True Image 6.0 is the most
advanced disk-imaging application on the market. True Image creates
exact images of hard disk drives and/or separate partitions for
complete backup purposes, and it allows PC users to restore all
original contents, including operating systems, programs, personal
data, settings, etc. in case of emergency or when upgrading to a
new PC. Exclusive technology makes Acronis True Image 6.0 fully
operable within Windows and does not require re-boots down to DOS,
thus making it simple for all PC users to operate. For more

Acronis Migrate Easy 6.0 is the leading,
dedicated hard disk drive - to - hard disk drive
migration tool available. It's the number one solution for PC users
installing new hard drives, which according to industry reports is
about three million per year. And unlike traditional hard drive
migration methods, which are notoriously time-consuming, Acronis
Migrate Easy 6.0 allows PC users to upgrade to a new hard disk
drive in minutes, not days. For more information, please visit,

Acronis OS Selector 8.0 is the premiere
multi-boot utility available today. It allows PC users to run
multiple operating systems on a single PC, including all versions
of Windows and Linux. Acronis OS Selector 8.0 also
repartitions and reorganizes hard disks for seamless installation
of new operating systems. It's the perfect solution for PC users
who want a safety net when trying Windows XP or Linux. For more
