Prime is the best, hands down. It does everything other water conditioners do PLUS it neutralizes ammonia and nitrites. However it isn't magic and isn't an excuse to not change the tank water! It neutralizes ammonia and nitrites for 24-48 hours only. It's best for those with traces of ammonia in their tap water but I recommend it to everyone.
Punishment is what it has always been, same old same old. For example, you are required to start by entering the Serial Code, nothing new. Except Acronis Code is 80, yes 80 characters. I tried it 3 times, carefully using the info on the package, even enlarging it on my copier to make reading easier to read. My computer tech tried another three times. We both entered and re-checked to make sure each entry was correct. Each time the entry ended by being highlighted in red, with the word "incorrect". I have used another version of Acronis in the past, with constant problems, which is why I switched to Macrium Reflect, which has worked perfectly for years. It is so much easier to use and full disk clone is always exact when restoring to a hard drive. The two criteria I like most about all tech is "simple" and "easy". Macrium was and is, Acronis was neither and never. There are other clone software, so I am not suggesting only Macrium. It was found and tested after so many Acronis frustrations. So, in my experience and others I know, who are more high-tech than me, avoid Acronis, there are alternatives just as good or better and definitely easier to use.. This is not to say that Acronis cannot do what it says, but why not make it easy to use. I remember back when Acronis didn't even have a toll free number, it took years before going to one, that's progress. How a vendor would continue to be difficult and problem prone, puzzles me. Finally, suggest before you buy, explore alternative software. Good luck.
