The Good
* Can do full, incremental, and differential backups.
* Has a built in scheduler to schedule automatic backups.
* Can create backups to local computer (different partition/hard disk), network location, or external media.
* Can split up backup images.
* Can create bootable/recovery disk (CD/DVD).
* Can create bootable/recovery USB/flash drive.
* Can restore image to different hard drive (?).
* Can mount and explore images to do selective file restore.
* Can verify image backup integrity.
* Does fairly good compression.

The Bad
* Uses up a lot of CPU while creating backup (95%+).
* Creates backups very slowly considering how much CPU it uses.
* No password protection feature for backup images.
* How to restore images can be a little confusing.
* Simplistic in terms of features when compared to rival commercial (image) backup software.

#1 Ashraf of course it uses alot of CPU when performing a backup... compression is CPU intensive and any compression worth doing slows down any backup process. A more useful indicator of how it will perform is if it is multi-core/multi-cpu aware and able to utilise all cores or at least two cores for the backup process... I cannot answer that question yet as I have work to go to, maybe someone else with a multi core/cpu system can?

As Ashraf noted, very limited features compared to the big-name backup utilities, and it would take a lot of testing before I would be confident in the reliability of off-brand backup utilities. Keriver Image has a normal price of $30. You can buy an upgrade to Acronis True Image Home 2010 for that, or the full version for $40 at current street prices. There are a couple of different versions of the True Image Home 2010 User's Guide, it looks like support for dynamic and GPT disks has been dropped. The biggest downside to Acronis is that it uses a Linux-based boot disk, although you can use a BartPE disk (still no WinPE support). True Image Home 2010 integrates with Windows Search. FYI, for ordinary files which I dump onto external hard disks, I assign a unique drive letter to each external disk and let Windows Search 4 index them, so their contents show up in search results and I know which drive to attach.
