RDR really makes a big difference when it applies.I had both installed on my system a number of years ago. I actually performed a couple of bench marks between Acronis 2015 and Macrium Reflect 6 (Which didn't have RDR). It was performed on a 3rd Gen I5 system with USB 3.0 External units and Windows 7. On full backups, it was a dead heat. Both took the same amount of time (Note this included Verification). On Full Restores, Macrium was about 15% faster than Acronis (Note when I built a WinPE disk w/Acronis) the restore times were pretty equal. But Acronis never offered a WinPE environment only a Linux for restore functions.
When I first upgraded to Acronis 2015, after I tried my first test to restore my system, Acronis couldn't find any USB 3.0 drives. Their Linux kernel didn't have 3.0 support. Took them a few months to get that corrected. When I discovered this problem, I began looking for a replacement. I tested Aomei, Easus and Macrium vs Acronis. Macrium won hands down. Been a Registerd user since then.
The other big plus (imo) is Macrium Viboot.
