Feature REQUESTS

[admin]

1. I'd like to see the images be named exactly what I name them. Like "Image.DBI" vs "Image_20250305-v1-xx.DBI".

You should know that the same task can generate multiple versions (delta and differential) of image files, so we had to add a suffix to the file name to distinguish them. Do you have any good suggestions to solve this problem?

2. I'd like the "Image.DBI" to be exactly where I tell it to go, and not in a new folder like "D:\Image.DBI" vs "D:\Image\Image.DBI".

We will improve it in future releases. What we don't understand, however, is why we would want to put image files for multiple tasks in the same folder, which can lead to confusion, and wouldn't it be more intuitive to create a separate folder for each task?

Future pricing suggestions:

1. NO SUBSCRIPTION nonsense (at least for home/personal users)! You have a great opportunity to take a lot of ex-Macrium customers right now because they got greedy like that! I will never pay for software with a "self destruct timer", especially "mission critical" stuff like backup software.
2. A decent "Home user" price, like $19.99 - $39.99 and instead of a subscription to generate continued revenue, maybe a discounted price on the next major versions? Say $30 for version 5.x, then a 25-50% discount to upgrade to version 6.x, or version 7.x (can skip one or more versions) for $15 - $20? Support for old home versions is completely un-needed in my opinion, so no need to support or update/patch old versions once a newer major one is released.
3. NEVER bloat it up with extra nonsense like Acronis did. We don't need Facebook integration, malware protection, cloud services, driver updaters, download managers, shopping coupons, etc. etc. etc. Just a solid, lightweight imaging software. Period!

Thank you very much for all your suggestions.
