Advice Request Is Paragon Backup and Recovery is reliable?

[ItsReallyMe]

Anyone use Paragon Backup and Recovery or Paragon Hard Disk manager backup and recovery?
I used Acronis True Image in the past, but it failed to restore the backup? I just want to know if Paragon one is reliable?

I've tried using both in the past and wasn't very impressed, attempts at restoring didn't complete fully. I have an OEM version of True Image on this PC which I've been trying as an alternative to Macrium Reflect Free, I haven't managed to get it to restore well either, am still playing with it in case I've done something wrong. I've been a long time Reflect user, I like it, I'll probably end up buying it now that Macrium have announced they will withdraw support for the free version.

There is currently a free version of AOMEI Backupper here - Ending Soon - AOMEI Backupper Pro 7.1.2 Free Full Version License 1 Year

Yes it is. Easeus, Paragon, Acronis, Macrium, DiskGenius, TeraByte. They are all reliable, but not perfect. Just make sure you let the program verify the image after every backup

Yes, but you have to disable drive encryption before recovery.

For some reason, I just tried to use Paragon, and it failed at creating a recovery USB stick. I even disabled all Comodo Internet Security 2024 BETA protections. It says something like 'failed to create process'. I made sure that the program was not auto contained. Tried multiple times, eventually disabling every protection of CIS BETA. It could be just a BETA thing.
