Does the recovery media for Premium have advantages over regular 2014?

Thread needs solution

I rarely create recovery disc. I always use the one offered by Acronis. If I upgrade to Premium...does the disc have any advantages over the regular version?

Thanks in advance

With the very rare exception of the 2013 version, the user created CD is the exact same as offered as an ISO from the download. The 2013 is the only iso which is currently different and has a couple fixes.

As for the premium, the premium offers the ability to restore to dissimilar hardware (new motherboard) whereas the standard does not.
The premium also offers the capabilty to c reate an WinPE recovery disk which has Windows drivers iinstead of Linux drivers.
The WINPE is slightly faster but it is mostly to offer another choice if the Linux version does not work for you.

So the WinPE still needs to be created...not part of the disc supplied by Acronis...

I am really not sure I need Premium. The version I have already works perfectly for me!

Thanks
