• don't bother unless you want to waste time and money

  mikwarleoMay 25, 2009

  Pros

  -cheaper than some others

  Cons

  -limited success recoving data (exact same data recovered quicker and more easily with other programs). -bad interface -note this program is apparently sold with various names varying on theme 'kernel for NTFS/FAT' beware

  Summary

  Tried full version for crucial data recovery: Took 1-2 hours to complete standard scan, then program would repeatedly cease when trying to recover files. Tried GetDataBack also which completed quick scan in 3min and recovered ALL data flawlessly within 1 hour. Don't bother with wasting your time and money on this program, go straight for something better like GetDataBack.

• false advertising

  twolf13March 28, 2007

  Pros

  demo worked great

  Cons

  At this point the company is a con in my book. They advertise 24 hour support, they advertise IMMEDIATE sending of download link and activation code, on their site. I purchased it about 2.75 hours ago...3 or 4 emails to them, and no reply. no link, no activation code, no support, no nothing. The email from element 5(receipt) states I will receive the link and code within 48 hours..very contradictory. I need to recover some files today, not 48 hours from now. If they had not advertised immediate receipt of code and link after I paid for it I would have bought elsewhere. I am on the verge of disputing on credit card and going with another company. the 24 hour support and immediate delivery are lies. I have saved the pages advertising both as proof in case they are needed in dispute.

• This software was a life saver...LITERALLY!!

  Pros

  I had 80GB of mp3's on my new, 200GB, Maxtor One Touch 11, external hard drive when a power outage made the drive unrecognizable to my computer. I have an emachines computer and am running XP Home. Maxtor told me to initialize the drive but that I would lose everything. That was not a viable option for me. The Maxtor rep then said that there was software out there that might help retrieve the data even if my computer can't read the drive...THIS IS THE STUFF!!! I downloaded the demo and immediately saw all the files I wanted to save. I then bought the full version and now have everything back!! The only drawback if you want to call it that was that it took 24 hours to save all 80GB. $50.00 and I got everything back...YAY!!
