Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Nothing.
  • Nothing. This program is total garbage. A backup program that leaves you with no backup and a damaged system. Unbelievable! A backup is suppose to be your protection, not a catastrophe in and of itself.
  • There are only cons, no pros, when you fail to restore the system from image created by this tool.. Stay Away from it.
  • This programme totally Trashed my Windows 10 Laptop. I installed - which was not straight forward and took a couple of tries. I started the programme, and when it Rebooted my system, It could not Boot. I tried everything to rescue my nice working system. In the end I had to admit defeat and load a previous Win 10 disk image from last summer. So Thanks, Minitool!

Cons

  • This program slows down performance significantly and interrupts WiFi constantly. MiniTool hides its treachery very well; it doesn't even show up in task manager processes or startup so you don't even know it's running. Overall, MiniTool is a malicious-virus like software that shouldn't have a place on anyone's PC.
  • Prepared my new system got everything the way I wanted it and was ready to clone system to SSD. The program had no disclosure of what it was going to do or how it was going to do it. Why did it need to WRITE to the source drive, at all?? The most idiotic thing I have ever heard of. This horrible program corrupted the SOURCE drive. The used space on the disk kept growing bigger and bigger, 4 times bigger. After 5 hours I had to kill the process. Chkdsk /f won't remove the many gigabytes it added to the drive. Also my restore points are now all gone. The clone was unsuccessful.
  • This software can make "system backup" of "drive c+system reserve" when your windows is running, from desktop, but when you try to restore it does not work, even i created "Add boot entry", but it failed, reason is hard disk is same, my Backup was saved in "drive d", but this tool failed.
  • Disaster.
