I the next section I will open up the software itself and look at getting an initial backup running with Reflect 8 Home. With all of the above options set, the install is quickly on its way to completing and the software was installed in just a few moments on my test system. With the additional downloading of data complete, the installation can continue, next we are asked to input various information pertaining to the configuration of the software including (when applicable) a licence key, any additional features to be installed and whether or not to optionally register for Macrium support whilst using the trial version.
Once registered, downloading is quick thanks to the installer being just over 5MB in size, although another 162MB is downloaded as a part of the installation process which does go on to delay things somewhat further. Installing Reflect 8 begins by visiting the Macrium Reflect 8 homepage where a 30 day free trial version of the application can be downloaded (a valid email address must be registered in order to access the trial download). With an already renowned disk imaging and cloning tool at its core, plus plenty of new backup features added on top, I am excited to see what Macrium Reflect 8 Home can do, let’s go!
This includes facilitating both file and image level backups, the ability to schedule and password protect backups, create rescue media and make images suitable for use with virtual machines amongst many other features included right out of the box. The popular Macrium Reflect free version ( previously reviewed here) has for a long time been a “go to” application for many when it comes to imaging an existing Windows system either for backup purposes or during the process of migrating to a new hard disk drive or even to an entirely new PC.Īs the premium version, Reflect 8 Home takes things a step further and brings in much more backup related functionality to the core application making for a fully functional backup tool. Reflect 8 Home is the latest premium backup software offering from disk imaging experts, Macrium.
