Is True Image suitable for restoring individual files from local backups?

Thread needs solution

I have about 330GB of data backed up to Acronis Cloud. If I select the Recovery tab, the "Loading backup content" message appears for a few seconds. After that I can search for a filename or keyword and results are returned pretty quickly. It works very well.

Doing the same using a local backup is incredibly slow. It takes quite a few minutes (perhaps 10) to load the content, and after that, searching is dramatically slower than the Cloud version (again, minutes). It's not practical if I quickly want to restore one or two files. I assumed this was a problem with the software and raised a ticket about it some time ago. Support were helpful but didn't resolve the issue. I had hoped the latest version (2019) might address this, but it doesn't.

Is True Image not the right solution for this or are there settings or options which would make this work? In the past I used Genie Timeline for local backups. It can recover individual files in a few seconds. I wanted to use one piece of software for all backups, but perhaps the solution is to use Acronis for remote backup only. I would be grateful for any advice.

Sorry about that.

After sending the post I received a welcome message saying I would now be able to post messages. As there was no sign of my message at that point, I resent it.
