Acronis true Image vs. Norton Ghost

I have access to Acronis true Image 9.0 or Norton Ghost 12.0. Any preference by those of you that have used either or both?

Moved from reviews to general software, this does not qualify as a review, please read sticky threads in forums before posting. Thank you.

I have not tried to use Ghost in years, but I do use Acronis and like it a lot. I suppose this has a lot to do with my general displeasure with Symantec products, lousy support policies, and general attitude. I feel that they shot themselves in the foot about 5 years ago. Acronis is far from perfect, but the company seems to be trying hard.

Acronis

Although I have never used Acronis myself, I know that it is highly recommend among the tech staff at our store and we are constantly selling copies to our customers.

I also have a general distaste for Symantec though, so that alone would sway my decision in the direction of Acronis.

Haven't tried Ghost, but Acronis TI is very decent.
Even the freeware version (Seagate Discwizard based on ATI 8.0) is not bad at all.
