Overall Satisfaction with Paragon Hard Disk Manager
Our whole organization uses it to clone hard drives and to migrate computer hard drives to dissimilar hardware.
Pros
- When you have a hard drive that is physically failing with CHKDSK errors, it will often somehow still clone it and make it work on the new system.
- It can take a computer's operating system installation and make it work on dissimilar hardware.
Cons
- If it's installed to a CD it takes forever to boot to it. Better off a USB stick.
- It takes a very long time to clone a failing drive (understandably) and you have no idea how long it will take. Estimated times are not accurate.
- It has had a positive impact on our business objectives because it has gotten us out of some difficult situations where drives would not clone otherwise. It saves a reload of a computer, therefore a lot of time saved.
Paragon is better in some areas, worse in others.
Better at cloning unhealthy drives. Worse at quick clones.
Acronis is a little more intuitive. Paragon has some dialog that I don't think translates well to English.
