I’ve had some issues with iDrive. I don’t have an updated version of Windows, so that might have something to do with it. I’m running a 2018 version of Windows 10, and I haven’t had any issues with Acronis. But I have had issues with iDrive, though they do seem to fix issues, but more slowly. It would be nice if iDrive could do what Acronis does and be able to do local disk images. Instead, the only local backup they do is a file backup. I’ve had issues like the scheduler mysteriously erasing my settings. I have to babysit it and make sure it’s doing the backups regularly because sometimes when they do updates, it scrambles my backup settings. I found out later that it hasn’t been doing backups for a few days, which is annoying. The email updates were another issue I had. It was giving me email updates for successful backups, and I don’t need my inbox full of those messages. And now I told them, I need an email message when the thing’s not running. But it doesn’t work that way.
The disadvantage of using real-time backup in iDrive is that it significantly impacts server performance, causing considerable speed issues. The archiving process needs improvement along with the management of bandwidth and CPU. There should also be more options for creating conditions to manage the workload of the environment, making the system easier to balance.
