At a Glance

Expert's Rating

Pros

File backup, sync, and imaging in one program

Ransomware protection

Affordable online storage (for backup and restore only)

New friendlier Interface

Cons

Doesn’t support third-party online storage services

Doesn’t let you create new folders when defining a backup destination

Boot disk creation remains problematic

Our Verdict

With online storage and malware protection, Aomei Backupper 8.5 can now compete with the likes of Acronis True Image in the backup, sync, and disaster recovery category. If only it would fix a couple niggling issues.
