  Version: Norton Save & Restore 2.0

  "This is in no way Norton ghost!"

  by Charles K on May 8, 2008

  Pros: This is not Norton Ghost! "brduran" claims the two are identical which clearly shows me he has no knowledge of Norton ghost whatsoever. I can guarantee there is nothing even similar when talking about Ghost, nothing, zero. I wouldn't waste my time with this program. No pros at all. Just more junk by Norton.

  Cons: On the other hand Norton Ghost in v12 or v14 are superior cloning / backup programs. Both recover identical to the backup or clone they create. I'm positive of this because I use Ghost 12 and have successfully cloned Windows XP Pro, Vista Home Premium and Vista Ultimate. I have recovered all three to an identical operating system with programs, folders and files just as they were at the time I cloned the drive.

  Version: Norton Save & Restore 2.0

  "A serious let down"

  by brduran on December 3, 2007

  Pros: It comes with a wizard that helps you set up the back ups.

  Cons: It's identical to Norton Ghost 12. They both use too much resources (CPU and RAM) for both back ups and restore. If you're thinking of restoring an entire folder, forget about it, they both allow you to restore files (not folders) as long as you remember the files names; imagine remembering all the documents you have backed up. In the backup location they both create lot more folders than folders you have to backup, making it even more difficult to restore. And that's just what I've noticed right of the bat. No wonder this software is included in the Norton 360 version, by itself is worthless.

  "Does EVERYTHING Ghost Does + Cheaper = BETTER!"

  by shakethebabyass on July 18, 2009

  Pros: Image your hard drive, create restore points.. All of the features that you ACTUALLY USE in ghost are here in S&R.
  Can be bought at a much cheaper price than Ghost.

  Cons: Nothing that I can think Of.

  Summary: HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Better than Acronis and Same as Ghost.
