Acronis True Image is een uitgebreid programma waarmee back-ups kunnen worden gemaakt. Dit kan van belangrijke bestanden op de harde schijf, maar ook als een image van een partitie of complete harde schijf. De 2017-versie werd al zeer vroeg uitgebracht, namelijk al in augustus 2016, maar dit jaar is versie 2017 New Generation uitgebracht. Het exacte versienummer is vastgezet op 21.0 build 6116 en voorzien van de volgende aankondiging en lijst met veranderingen:

- Acronis Active Protection (available with the Premium subscription only, on Windows only) - Advanced, active protection against data loss to ransomware. Ensures constant data availability, even when faced with a ransomware attack.
- Acronis Notary (available with the Premium subscription only) - Acronis Notary technology leverages Blockchain technology from our partner Ethereum to generate a unique certificate so that days, months, or even years from now you can be assured that a file is identical to the one originally backed up.
- Local Mobile Backup - In addition to mobile-to-cloud backup and cloud browsing of content, you can wirelessly back up mobile devices directly to a local Windows or Mac computer.

- Acronis ASign (available with the Premium subscription only) - Do you want to have one or more people electronically sign a document you have backed up? Use Acronis ASign to request an electronic signature. Digitally capture the signature, record an immutable record of it, and generate a unique certificate that can later authenticate the signature as real.
- Encryption for Mobile and Facebook backups - All mobile and Facebook backups are encrypted in transit and in storage, whether to local computers or the cloud.
