  THe new trial is fully functional!

  by: Gonzo Kid on 15-Apr-2008 08:57:29 AM

  Pros: It's great that they give fully functional trial instead of demo which they used to hang out earlier. wizards are very pleasant also, but the coolest thing about it is that you can immediately undo the partitioning operation if something goes wrong with the help Initial Backup Facility.

  The program works as promised but it's not well-designed

  by: redponyone on 22-May-2008 03:05:50 PM

  Pros: The main thing: it works. It did partition my drive - not exactly the way I wanted it, but i am satisfied with the results. It didn't cause any problem with Windows, all my files are safe. So, I am happy about that. BTW, I used demo version.

  Cons: I wouldn't call it user-friendly. Their Partitioning Wizard is not really a Wizard. There's nothing wizardly about it. I am somewhat technical but I had hard time understanding their lingo or the "backward" way the program partitions a drive. That's why the results were not a 100% what I wanted.

  It lets you design only one partition at a time. And if you want another one, it moves the last partition forward and puts a new one in the back. Which is kind of confusing.

  It only lets you use the slider to mark how big you want a partition to be. And the slider is not precise. You can't just type in the number of gigabytes you want a new partition to have. Why not?

  Safe partitioning solution!

  by: D.Young on 02-May-2008 10:17:48 AM

  Pros: I tried the 9 version of Partition Manager, it is a balanced combination of hard disk manager and a backup tool, it really makes my life easier as a disk partitioning is connected with risk of data damage, it natural that I don't want to loose any data.... All options are well explained, so advanced users would do main tasks without problem. There are many built-in guides for beginners, which lead them step-by-step during main operations. So, I recommend this solution! Even more, the demo is fully functional now!
