Summary: Poor product and even poorer service
Review: After getting help after a long wait, over a non 800 number, my nickel, I removed a partition, as instructed, and then Windows would not restart. Another long phone wait on my nickel, and I was instructed to email them a test file that was created. That was one week ago and still no response. I would not recommend this product or company to anyone.

Summary: nice graphics
Review: I find it ok for all partitonoing tasks and resizing. It took me some time to read it thoroughly before proceeding carefully with the tasks. Not rich in graphics unlike Partition Magic, you had to be extremely careful with what you do. Delete the wrong partiton and there's no way to retrieve it back. So I reread the instructions over but was able to execute it successfully. The BIG downside is when trying to do multiple operating system as it claims to do but it fails miserably. Forget it! All it did was overide the main OS and I had to retrieve it back with Norton Ghost.
The main thing to remember is its limitations. Use this program ONLY for partitoning and resizing hard drive. It's a good price compared with Part. magic (double the cost). But when you want to add new OS, the choice is Partiton Magic.

Summary: Did in my hard drive.
Review: I followed the instructions and I'm not a novice. This program hung on the last step in the procedure and rendered my data useless. Rewrote all the file names to garbage dot garbage and random file sizes up to impossible. All I can say is I'm glad I backed up and I'm upset losing a weeks worth of time just getting running again from trying to save lost data. I'll never have my computer back the way it was.

Summary: Still trying to recover
Review: I'm running Win ME and have a C and a D hard drive. I did back up the C drive because it has most all of the OS stuff and it was the only drive I wanted to partation. I tryed installing the software three time within Windows and it stopped at the point of retriving the system files. So I rebotted to DOS with the reboot disk I made and tried to just partation the C drive. It took all my files on the C drive and made one partation of which I couldn't get into, I could copy it to a free space on another drive so I picked D drive. I then had a partation on C drive that I couldn't get into and a copy on the D drive of the C partation of which I still couldn't get into and all the file on the D drive were now in their own partation of which I couldn't get into. I had to reformat both drives and restore the C drive from the backup and I'm still trying to restore what I had on the D drive

Summary: The only one that works always
Review: I've tried more partition tools than I can count including Partition Magic but none works like Partition Commander. It does exactly what is says it will do, nothing more, nothing less. When I'm doing somthing as dangerous as re-partitioning, I need a tools I can trust and Partition Commander is it.Doug Fenwick, Technical Manager, Cubic Appl, Inc

Summary: Partition Commander Version 8
Review: Partition commander is not worth 10$ much less 50$. I am a advanced user, and have 8 years computer experience. I have two drives (Win XP), and wanted to partition to install Linux on C:. Well, needless to say after I got the partition set up (that went ok, but the system interface is clunky), and the process is extremely slow. After installing, the boot loader (system commander) took over and ruined my dual boot settings, and after trying to restore the previous MBR, it almost destroyed the contents of my D: drive. As far as being able to go back to a previous configuration, that is a joke, and does not work unless you just want to undo the very last thing in the menu before actually physically writing to the drive. I would not recommend this product to anyone. Stay clear of Partition Commander. I have used Partition Magic before and didn't have any problems. I would recommend that instead.

Summary: The best
Review: Partition Magic has saved my rear more than a few times. This is a very easy to use product that also provides a lot of power when you need it.
