Anybody from pre-sales to talk to?

Thread needs solution

Hello everyone,

Does anybody here know how to get in touch with some kind of a pre-sales department? I have requested a contact via Private Message and I was promised somebody would get in touch with me, but no one ever did. It's been nearly two weeks now and still nothing.

I spoke to Oleg and Anton and haven't seen them on-line since. We have serious interest in purchasing one of Acronis products for system recovery (not deployment) over the network using Universal Restore, but it has to be tested first, as we cannot commit us to buy a cat in a bag.

Thank you for replying, Peter.
It would seem I am doing something wrong then, because I see no Universal Restore option in any of the trials. Can you advise?

Hello Marek,

Thank you for your post and we are sorry for not getting back to you sooner.

When we discussed your interest in the trial version for Acronis Universal Restore via a private message I forwarded your request to a regional sales manager. I followed-up with them to find out why they did not contact you and you can always get back in case you need additional help.

We are very sorry for any inconvenience and if you have additional questions please let me know.

Thank you.

I'm on the verge of NOT purchase an Acronis anything. Today, I downloaded the trial version for both my Mac Mini and my Windows 7 PC... on April 12th, 2016, I removed the complaining and whining that was here, yet left the description of the problem described in the following paragraph.

I have been trying to get ahold of a real human via chat and every time end up circling some black hole that does not produce any way to chat and get an answer. Frankly, if this is what support is like, I already have enough apps that suck my time on tech support lines.

So, does anyone know the answer to my question?

======================Added April 12, 2016

I've decided to extend Acronis another chance. I do intend to try making contact with a living human before buying, and I'm at least willing to go that far.

Why? I recieved a prompt response to my post here that answered my questions. The reply indcated Acronis might have been having system problems the day I had this issue and I certainly understand that, given the trouble this technology (PCs, Macs, iAnythings, Android Whatsits) give everyone.

I know several people who are long time users of Acronis backup (various versions) and swear by the product. That's why I decided to try it out. Perhaps you should do your own investigation of the products. I'm going to try and contact a live human in pre-sales before plunking down the money, and if I succeed, will purchase.
