Reviewed by: CNET Staff on November 07, 2008
This muscular disc-imaging utility is not kidding around (though we thought the demo might be). PowerISO lets you mount virtual drives, create bootable discs, and generate CD and floppy images. It supports a huge number of image formats, including standard ISO and IMG files as well as files created by almost all popular disc-burning programs such as Nero, CloneCD, and Alcohol120%.
Our one major caveat is that the trial version doesn't let you create images larger than 300MB (most CDs hold 700MB), making it much harder to fully test the product. On the other hand, the trial period is unlimited, so some users may actually prefer this arrangement. Trial restrictions aside, we think PowerISO makes a good pick for intermediate to advanced users.

Version: PowerISO 3.2
Pros: This software is great for saving your CDs on your hard drive. You pop in a CD, run the software, and the software converts the CD into an image file. After that, you don't even need the CD because you can just run the image file from your hard drive and the computer will think you are running the actual CD. Also, you no longer have to burn iso images on CDs to view them. This saves a lot of money and time. The software creates a virtual CD-Rom drive and opens any iso file. Couldn't ask for anything more.
Cons: I very rarely say this...but none. Buy it if you want to back up your CDs or need to view iso images.
