Hows it working? Reviews are quite negative about it and so are the comments.

acronis true image v2012 & later are very bad even if you simply use trial version & here is the reason:
Beware of Acronis "Leftovers" Issues - Wilders Security Forums

Many users of Acronis (and some other) backup software are unaware of the fact that merely installing it, even on a trial basis, completely changes the way in which your system handles ALL storage devices and volumes. In fact, due to Acronis' own current driver inadequacies, it may do so in ways that can sometimes cripple some types of devices completely (e.g., USB, SSD, NAS and some RAID configurations) and has even been reported as having totally trashed a RAID 5 controller setup, among others. Furthermore, and perhaps most frustrating of all, the Acronis application software installer itself provides no way of undoing its OS "takeover" changes. Thus, its adverse effects on system functionality and performance may carry foreward indefinitely to plague those who may subsequently decide to install something else.

^ I read today that it installs a custom Volume Shadow Copy driver and interferes with Windows' own VSS which is a criticl and sensitive part of the OS. Too many low level OS interferences.
