Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • There is nothing positive to say about the software. Installation was smooth and easy. But that is to be expected, isn't it?
  • Great for beginners Disk Imaging - Live OS Image creation, differential images Disk cloning Backup utility supporting scheduling Data security features Provides a decent Free Edition for home use

Cons

  • The clone was finished "successfully". Well, the SSD did not even boot. I wouldn't consider this a success. Even worse, the SSD was kind of bricked and couldn't be re-formatted in Windows.
  • It should provide a portable version to run on the target drive. No cloud backup feature , which is essential today.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Easy to understand and use. Reliable backups and restores. Very good and accessible support.
  • Easy to use software whether it is for File restoration or a complete VM. Back-up checks and reporting tools give me detailed information about any possible concerns. The software saves me a lot of time and is well worth a try if you are looking for a new back-up software for your VM's.
  • Simple to use Reasonable Price Reliable Excellent Support

Cons

  • Error messages could be a bit clearer maybe. The support handles them so it's not that important though.
  • Loading big images from olders dates takes some time to load.. coffee time!
  • I don't have any cons that i can think of.
