CloneZilla has several scenarios where it can be used in business. Firstly the main purpose for us is for imaging of larger number of systems with varying specifications and operating systems in quick succession. However we have also used it for "point of time" imaging of systems for when employees have left the company or have a full metal backup made.

1. Best for Data Recovery 2. Best for creating Drive Partition 3. Not much recommended for occasional uses as it is costly to use some of its paid features. 4. Best for migrating OS from default drives. 5. Best for Cloning disk to either external or internal drives based on requirements.

Cons
Open Source
  • The interface is not easy to navigate or understand by non technical staff
  • Many many key presses before an actual image starts processing
  • Does not feel "clean" - in that it feels very batch driven rather than having a more simpler way of managing the process end to end.

Whilst other imaging and deployment suites provide nicer interfaces which suit less technical staff, they do have quite significant price differences in comparison to CloneZilla. CloneZilla not only provides us a significant number of features, it provides a full imaging solution at a price which no one can compete with!
