I searched and didn’t find this posted anywhere.

It’s only for Reflect X and I know a lot of folks are not interested in the subscription model. But maybe someone who is is not aware of this offer.

Also, if you are running a previous version of paid for Reflect and you are subscribed (ha!) to receive notifications from Macrium you should have received an email with an upgrade offer:

Upgrade Offer: 3 Years for the Price of 2

• Valid for existing Reflect license only
• Limited time offer
• Secure the price of Macrium Reflect X by paying up front

If you want to add new licenses you must use the Black Friday offer instead of the upgrade offer.

The offer expires on December 5.

Offering a small discount to lock you into a subscription doesn’t sound like much of a bargain!
Especially when you don’t need to update backup software, you only need to use it. (I am using MR V7.3 and it does exactly what I need.)

Paul,

Totally agree, I’m still using Version 6 and it still works perfectly!

May the Forces of good computing be with you!

Agree.

When I find software that is subscription based, I immediately lose all interest in using that software.

I use Macrium Reflect 8 with a perpetual license and 4 installs.

While I’m relived to have this, I have a family member who kicked the can on getting Reflect 8 over and over.  You guessed it, now, after a total MVMe C: drive failure (and new MVMe drive), they can only get the subscription model. Rats.

I’m checking out Easeus Todo as a possible choice for them.  Maybe Acroinis, but I switched from Acronis to Macrium.  Suggestions?

Doesn’t matter what they use, as long as they do it regularly and have a boot USB that works.

I’ve tried Aomei, MiniTool, MR etc. I use MR, but don’t recommend it for “ordinary” folk – very techie. Aomei or MiniTool are better for them.

cheers, Paul

Forgot about MiniTool.  Good catch.

For a single vX license at $25 and Half-fee Renewal forever (if vX inst’d by March, I think) … it’s a much easier decision. No better Forum than Macrium’s, but low-techies like me won’t care @ (current) $2/mo ave cost. Multi-units Licenses, I understand the $$.

Resurrecting an old thread, I was just curious about the current offerings for Reflect X. So, I downloaded a trial version and it looks and performs exactly the same as version 8. I did not spend much time with it since my initial reaction was that it would do NOTHING for me except, drain my wallet.

Logging in to my account, the deal is the same as previously reported for current Version 8 users. You can still get a 1 year sub for $25 (or 4 for $50) if you are willing to give up your current license(s). Or, you can keep your version 8 license(s) and get three years for the price of two. The annual price will keep the 50% off at renewal. (Not necessarily the same price.)

Just thought I’d share for anyone that may be interested.

Thanks for posting the Reflect X “deals”.

Assuming I understand the details correctly, the real “gotcha” is that there is no future price guarantee.

Only the discount deal remains for future renewals – but the price may increase (or decrease??).

As others have mentioned, my MR v8 (w/perpetual license) works fine on Win10/11 now and likely for the foreseeable future (at no additional cost) – so I’ll pass on the Reflect X “upgrade”.
