For mirroring and what not, Acronis is awesome, but for file backups I do not like it.

Why did you like SyncBack SE better?

It has tons of features, and will backup the files as is, not as one archive file. Incremental backups just overwrote files as necessary and didn't make additional archive files to go with the main archive file.

Was just really convenient to me... had a nice scheduler, tons of advanced options, and it did things with ftp.

ghost still exists...symantec ghost

acronis backups data to an image file...you can do specific files to one image. then you can run the program to restore files you want, or you can mount the image to a virtual drive and read/write to the image file.

syncback is great like BB says with it doing file backups and can tell if the file has been updated. syncback has a free edition as well.
