But giving something a full 5 is a tough call, so for now, a solid 4 will have to do.įor almost all full Disk and Partition imaging, I prefer to use a boot disk that is outside of the Windows environment. It's a very good program and I have been waffling between a 4 and a 5. So, long story short, I tested tons of replacements and O&O DiskImage 6 Pro (I have build 374) is the only one that made the cut. Even 2012 with the extra cost Plus Pack suffer lockups, crashes and corruption. I have been using Acronis True Image with XP but it has trouble with Windows 7 in various ways, both with 32 bit and 64 bit versions. I think it is the best of all the modern imaging apps. The longer I have the program, the more I like it. Much faster than my old Norton Ghost 2003 for DOS. I do wish the program allowed me to choose multiple compression levels, but the single compression level they chose to use makes for a pretty fast image speed. Sort of caught me off guard that he would be so contrary, but hey, that's tech support for you. I had to tell him that I wanted the same interface and other additions both inside and outside of Windows. One actually said that there was no reason to update the boot CD at all and I should just stick with the 422 version.
I'm not sure about that - I've never had success with that in other apps, but I will try it extensively to see how it goes.Įmail tech support is very prompt, though a couple of folks seem a bit less helpful than others. They are trying to convince me that the SNAPSHOT feature, which uses a large cache to actually store the state of any open files then leaves those open files alone so there is no interruption in computer operation, will give me every single file so that the image is fully complete - just as if I booted to the CD and ran the image outside of the OS.
Here's a list of all the changes in the new 6.8.1 version: They redesigned the interface a bit and it feels smoother and more efficient, both in operation and screen space utilization. I got the ISO from the company for the bootable disc / bootable usb thumb driver and that worked out very well.
