"UnTrustworthy product- Show fake result in the Demo version"
Pros: Usuability okay
Instruction good
can recover deleted files
Cons: Cheap sale tactic: Beware of what you see on the demo version. The demo version shows it could recover the file but after purchased the product and ran the recovery, most of the recovered files are 0 in bytes. In other words, it could not recover the content of the file so it simply returns a file name with zero in bytes.
Very poor technical support: Here is what they said.
tech support: File must have been corrupted.
User: but I was able to recover the same file using Ontrack trial version.
Then here is what they said: excerpt from the email
--------------------------------
If you tried everything we recommend and still there is no success, then, probably, you will have to try Ontrack.
--------------------------------
I highly recommend to stay away from any product like this if you accidentally delete the partition and try to recover. It is a poor product which may retrieve the files if you accidentally delete them but not if you already delete the hard drive partition. Buy other products

Version: R-Studio 3
Pros: I spent 3 days attempting to recover some very important data from an NEC S1400 fibre RAID after Veritas Enterprise Administrator had wiped it. I tried several different recovery software but the one that delivered was R-Studio Network.
I recovered nearly 300GB of data from a 2.0TB volume.
This saved my company thousand of pounds in recovery costs.
Cons: You're kidding right?!!!

"Easy to use and worked well for my situation"
Pros: I had a unique situtation in which my XP Media Center Edition OS failed to boot in safe mode, any mode, with recovery console, and etc. One of the system files had become corrupted. What complicated things more was it was on a SATA RAID5 array (not fully hardware RAID) and on a dynamic disk. These factors made it impossible to repair the OS. The final solution was to install Media Center OS on an separate IDE drive in the system, boot from that (which didn't recognize the dynamic disks any longer), install R-Studio's Data Recovery tool and recovered 100% of my files (my RAID had not failed and therefore the files were still intact). The GUI for R-Stuido's Data Recovery tool was very easy to use and straightforward. I downloaded the trial version first and recovered a small file to test everything and then purchased the full version. Long story short, back up your files/photos by either burning to CD/DVD, tape backup or printing your photos and sticking them in a photo album.

Version: R-Studio 3
Pros: 1) retrieved all my data.
2) very easy to use. I'm not a real techy, it was late at night, and I was panicking.
3) less expensive than comparable products.
