How many people out here have sucessully used B&R10 ?

Thread needs solution

I'm facing a serious issue with Acronis since I really don't understand their management and business. We are trying to kick out Symantec Backup Exec and use Acronis B&R 10.
So we started using the TRIAL but immediately we faced the same error (http://forum.acronis.com/forum/5227) for every recovery tried.

So we are asking ourselves if everyone could post a little comment here and telling if you are satisfied or not with Acronis within your company...?

Greetings,

Not really.

The response time from someone from the support here on the forum is some 4 days (the average I've noticed). Ok, the forum is for everyone, there is a lot ports, and only few supporters which i understand have something else to do. Most of errors so or so end with a case.

Sadly the support does not work any better. I had to wait 9 days to someone to respond to a case created, then it took another 11 days until the case was handled by a 2tier support specialist. After another 9 days of exchanging emails I finally got a live support session BUT he only setup the program to a cretin stage so I have at least some functionality. I'm still not able to use a lot of programs functions, and I think I should be happy with what I have because that was a month ago and nothing relay did change - because I'm not complaining no one seams to care.

There is no really case management, no one did inform me if the case has been closed, should I wait or...

Thanks for your post! Maybe this way we can push for some better support!!
I have installed B&R on 4 computers so far (Windows XP PRO SP3, Windows Vista Enterprise SP2, Windows 2003 SP2 x64 and Windows 7 Pro x64) and when restoring, i receive the same error as in my first post here above.... :-( others must be facing this issue also or i'm doing something really stupid....

i just hope others post here also their "complaint"...maybe then Acronis would help me...
I'm not buying software that doesn't work....obviously

 Hello Ivan,

Thank your for your notes. 

Due to Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 and Acronis True Image Home 2010 releases the amount of the requests to Acronis Customer Service Department increased distinctly. We are training new stuff, but this requires some time. Please accept our apologies for the inconvenience. We are doing the necessary work to decrease the delay in the responses and to make our customer service better. 

Ivan,

I have responded in this thread

Thank you.

ABR 10 is a piece of junk and Acronis has no support. Why do you think the amount of cases has increased dramatically? Because it is broke beyond repair.

They don't test their software. They release it and let end users test it for them.

I think the problem with ABR 10 is that the documentation for using it has no place for troubleshooting. It says install this, and then do this. It does not have, if you install this, and you receive this message, try this. There needs to be some kind of error log with fixes somewhere. I to am very frustrated with the response time for support.
