Cost of Upgrading from Acronis True Image 2014, And Questions ?

Thread needs solution

HI,

Anyone know how much the price to upgrade is from ATI 2014 to ATI 2016 ? Also , is their the same amount of bugs and or problems that have plagued ATI 2015 in ATI 2016 ? FYI i am using Windows 7 with ATI 2014 and i need to update to a version that is working with Windows 10 for the future, when i finally decide to upgrade to Windows 10, as ATI 2014 does not work with Windows 10, so i have read somewhere. I refused to upgrade to 2015 because of the major problems.

Any help in answering my questions would be welcome :)

You can find out the various upgrade options by logging in to you My Account (top far right of the Acronis home page) and there is a link for each pre-2016 version of ATI that you have registered giving the upgrade options (the price is the same for all versions back 2010).

At this stage I would not recommend installing 2016 as there are still many problems being reported. I had relatively few issues with ATI 2015 (but that may just be luck on my part).

When I make a decision on upgrading from ATI 2014 to ATI 2016, I have a number of full disk image backups of my Win 7 Pro OS. Will I be able to do the full image restores using the ATI 2016 recovery media or will I have to go back to the 2014 Acronis Linux recovery media? Also, I had a problem with 2014 in that the default, full image restore would take the un-partitioned, "Over Provisioning" space at the end of my Samsung SSD and add it to the Windows 7 OS partition [C: drive/partition in my case]. I then had to use my DD12 to restore my Over Provisioning at the end of the SSD. How will ATI 2016 handle this? [Thank You for your response]

According to Acronis ATI 2016 has full support for backups created with ATI 2014 and 2015. For ones created with earlier versions, some, but not all of the possible activities are supported. How far back this limited support goes is an unknown.

Thank You IanL-S. I suspect that I may have to try a trial version of it at some point to determine as to how it handles my SSD over provisioning.
