Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Its support perfectly Windows operating system but don't know about Mac. Interface is arranged in proper manner so it's easy to understand. You can perform disk wipe, disk partition, change labels, split or merge partition and many others features. MiniTool Partition also help you move you os from HHD to SSD without losing any data Which is best thing.
  • Great interface with frequent updates Format or re-partition hard disk drives Convert between disk filesystems SSD performance analytics and tools Disk Benchmark feature Free version
  • Even the free version gets a lot of work done for the average user. You can extend, shrink, merge, create and remove partitions easily. It also has options to work with a variety of filesystem formats. Very stable Doesn't have intrusive or annoying ads. Partition and Data Recovery works to a great extent.
  • I've used Minitool Partition Wizard on everything from large NAS hard discs to 8gb micro usb cards. The system is pretty straight forward and you are asked to confirm and apply your changes before it actually happens to avoid overwriting drives/data.

Cons

  • There are no cons that I've observed in MiniTool but just want to inform, you need to purchase MiniTool Partition because there are lot of features which are locked in the free version.
  • It takes a little bit of learning for beginners so they can maybe include a lite version just for basic tasks as any beginner can by mistake erase their drive with this. Apart from that it just works great.
  • Data recovery is not included in the Pro version. No file viewer for other filesystems such as hfs+ or APFS.
  • With all the warnings, there is a potential for you to damage the hard drive your operating system is running if you are not following directions or are unsure drive you are actually making a change to.

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.
