# Macrium Interview UViON

Uvion is a Belgium reseller who has been recommending and selling Macrium Reflect to their customers for over 4 years now. Macrium speak to Bert Coppens, General Manager at Uvion.

**Q: What made you choose to resell Macrium to your customers?**

We really like the product. It is very stable to use. We feel confident that when we install and configure backups, that there won’t be any issues, especially for our customers doing daily backups.

Before using Macrium, we were using one of their competitors. The early versions were good, but in later versions we found significant issues with their functionality. We’ve found that on the other hand, Macrium has gone from strength to strength. We know that when we take an image or set up incrementals that it will be stable and effective.

Also of importance was the price, which benefits both ourselves and our customers.

**Q: Tell us a bit more about the type of customers you serve?**

Most of our customers are based in Belgium and are small businesses. Around 80% of our customers have 1–25 users with 20% having 30–200 users. We are an IT partner for our customers and have developed a relationship where they trust the software we recommend. For the majority of our customers, we install and manage their backups for them.

**Q: What do you find are Macrium’s best features?**

The most important feature is certainly the simplicity of the product. It ensures that we can backup multiple sites with no fuss and be confident that there are reliable backups in place. We also like the extra tools such as ViBoot which has been an excellent feature for our customers. As most of our customers are on Hyper-V for extra reliability, Macrium really helps.

# Welcome to viBoot!

As our latest version of Macrium Reflect continues to get rave reviews in the marketplace, we’re excited to add a new tool to the family, with Macrium viBoot. Here’s a great video to show you how it works.

viBoot enables you to instantly create, start and manage Microsoft Hyper-V virtual machines using one or more Macrium Reflect image files as the basis of the virtual machine sub-system. viBoot allows you to boot into the images you have made using Macrium Reflect for recovery validation purposes, or as a DR tool to instantly recover vital systems. If you’re working at an enterprise level, you could recover your vital Exchange or SQL systems in mere minutes! This will ensure no down time and no lengthy virtual disk conversion or restore. We’re here to make your lives easier!

We have built Macrium viBoot on a new device driver that presents a virtual Windows drive contained within a Macrium Reflect image file as a physical hard drive to the Windows storage sub-system. This allows any Windows based virtualization software that can boot from a physical drive, to boot from Macrium Reflect image files.

There are a number of ways that viBoot could be utilised. Use it to create a copy of your live environment to test new software, or use it as a performance test platform as part of your Physical to Virtual rollout strategy. Most importantly it enables IT administrators to quickly recover and make available critical systems for business continuity purposes.
