Version: FinalData Premium 2.0
"Can I give a red or negative star?"
Pros: Easy to use. Quick to determine that this software doesn't retrieve data from corrupted drive.
Cons: It won't read drive data from corrupted drives, when others will. Way too expensive! I have a fairly new drive w/ corrupt info, and this program doesn't even recognize if drives with corrupted files are connected. Don't waste your money, unless you have a very simple need and lots of money to waste.

Version: FinalData Premium 2.0
"(Standard Version) Excellent product."
Pros: (Reviewing Standard version, fewer features than Premium at a lower price).
Yes, you need to pay for it to actually recover your files, but at least you can see what would be recovered first.
No problems installing/running on Windows XP SP-2.
Recovered ALL files from two partitions that had been deleted, resized and reformatted - some 30000 files in all.
Other products I tried would only recover selected file types - FinalData found everything.
Cons: None. Although it's a little dated this product still holds its own.

Version: FinalData Premium 2.0
"Why does it say it recovers damaged office files?"
Summary: I can't understand why they say it recovers damaged office files. It does not as far as I can see. I tried other demos that DID work so I know they were not unrecoverable.

Version: FinalData Premium 2.0
Summary: Tried every other similar type program and the demo version was able to see my files so bought the software to recover my files. Bought it and was worth the money.
