I have used Acronis True image 11, and it worked great, easy interface too, but it didnt work well with windows 7. Used the Acronis true image home 2010 which is the newer version, and it worked fine although Ive only used it for a few win 7 images. If you use the 2010 version, update it right away, the first version had tons of issues at first, I updated right away, and no issues. As fas as I know, I don't see a tech version for acronis though.
