Driving Imaging Programs.

Previously used Acronis pretty much for all my drive copying and backups. Now I see the Acronis 2016 forces you to buy their cloud storage and you need to subscribe every year.

Any one use Paragon hard Disk Manager? Reading reviews and looks very good without the cloud garbage with subscription.

I've been using an Apricorn USB dongle. The hardware is the license key, so you can boot or run their EZ Gig cloning software on any computer.

What? I just bought an upgrade for a 2013 licence last month and it made no mention of a cloud subscription.

Edit-
Looks like there is a cloud (subscription based) and a non-cloud (perpetual) license:
