I'd go with Acronis True Image, but I bought my copy in 2005, which
is about a century ago in computer years, so I don't know if the
current version is still as good.

I continue to use TI, but am careful about new versions.
Acronis tends IMHO to let loose beta versions loose on
the public for them to find the last few bugs, which can
be risky for the one program you have to be able to
rely on in a disaster. I wouldn't do anything irrevocable
to my system until after I'd created an image, verified it,
and made a recovery, which is a time-consuming
checkout. I'm currently using version 9, build 2337,
and have made a successful recovery during the last
12 months. "A century ago" indeed, but a byte is a byte
regardless of the versions of everything else on my
machine, and I continue to rely on that build.
