    Comments about Duplicati as an Alternative to Acronis True Image
    Comment summary: Comments highlight that Duplicati is primarily a file backup program, whereas Acronis True Image is a disk imaging software. Several comments emphasize that Duplicati does not support disk cloning or imaging, which is a key differentiation between the two. One positive note mentions that, like Acronis, Duplicati supports incremental and online backups, indicating some overlap in backup functionalities, but disk imaging remains exclusive to Acronis.
