Summary
Hi! My name is Vera (Moscow), I run my own event-planning business. A week ago I deleted data base by mistake. I was terrified what if it would never be back ))))
I tried free version of Disk Drill first, it found the file, so I bought full version. It recovered the file!!!
I was very happy, 'cause literally it saved my a** )))))) It is worthy of what it costs -
"Fantastic for recovering erased or formatted drives."
Version: Disk Drill PRO 1.8.206
Pros
1.)You can test the software. If it works, you can sign up for a code and continue without the need to restart the scan; this could be a 44 hour scan (as in my case) Some other companies require a shutdown of the program to upgrade! This was a big turn off for me.
2.) This software worked perfectly when I accidentally formatted my backup hard drive. The most impressive thing was that it recovered .mus files (music notation) and other specialty files that many programs can't recover. They have a full list of files that can be recovered.
3.) There is life at customer service!
4.) Scans can be started and stopped at any point. The program can even be shut down and restarted without losing what had already been scanned. This is a great feature when you want to "unplug" and do some stuff on your computer part way through a perhaps very long recovery scan!
5.) software has a feature to make sure no data is ever lost in the future.Cons
I have found no cons as of yet. On a deep scan you won't usually get the name of the file back but this is common with all data recover programs so not "really" a con.........Just make sure you read about what this software is intended for before you decide to buy it. For me it was all about my accidental format of my backup drive.
Summary
For my use this software gets 5 stars. It saved ALL of my critical data after my unfortunate accidental format of a drive. I also tried trashing some files and emptied the trash bin. In this case I got back the file even with the name of the file.
