  • Paragon Drive Backup 8.5 Personal Edition
  • ShadowProtect Desktop 3.1
  • Symantec's Norton Ghost 12.0
  • DriveImage XML
Among the products reviewed, the “Editor’s Choice” is ShadowProtect Desktop.

Let's see .. who do we know here who happens to use ShadowProtect? Smiley

Looks like you made a wise choice, Pleo. Tho the link takes you to a Ghost 12 page.

Quote:
I might recommend buying Norton Ghost 12.0 because it has the best interface of any drive-imaging competitor, and it's the only product of its kind that won't frighten a completely nontechnical user.

Yes, Norton Ghost 12 did receive a very good review, too.  I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Norton Ghost to anyone, even though I currently prefer an alternative (ShadowProtect).

Product reviews such as this one are “one data point” to consider when making a purchase decision.  Obviously, this review (or any other) can’t (and shouldn’t) be a substitute for thinking about your own individual needs and unique requirements.

Best wishes,
Pleonasm
