Paragon Partition Manager Personal 9.0 had the most comfortable interface of all the partition managers we’ve tried recently; version 10 improves this further. It’s also the most robust package reviewed here.
PC Advisor, Aug 09
Partition Manager Personal Edition 10.0 was reviewed in PC Advisor. And the verdict was:
“Arguably, Paragon’s Partition Manager 9.0 had the most comfortable interface of the partition managers we tried recently. Now, Paragon Partition Manager Personal 10.0 increases the flexibility of the GUI. More practically, it’s the most robust of the packages we’ve reviewed.”
Only the other day we discussed the new EASEUS Partition Manager Home, which enables you to quickly create or delete a drive partition. Now Paragon have released the latest version of their popular partition manager software, with full support for Windows 7 as well as a whole host of additional functionality.
Paragon Partition Manager 10 is a commercial partition manager that will enable you to create, delete, merge or copy a partition. As an example, if you wanted to buy a larger drive, you’ll want to migrate your content from your existing drive. This tool will enable you to migrate or copy across the information. New features within v10 include full support for Windows 7, GPT-formatted drives, an improved user-interface (with a simple or advanced mode) as well as an improved recovery media builder.
If you have ever needed to partition a hard drive to use it for different systems (Linux, XP, or Mac OS) you will know that there is no simple to use software available within windows (Disk management as part of the Microsoft Management console is available but not very easy to use and not deisgned for use by the average user). In order to create, merge, delete and resize partitions it is much simpler to use an external software to perform the tasks for you. One of these is Paragon Partition Manager 10 Personal which now allows full compatibility with new partitioning-technology (GPT), which is used in Windows 7/Vista, Server 2008, Mac OS X and Linux.
Paragon Partition Manager 10 Personal can be run in either “Express Mode” (Wizard based) or “Full Scale” (Advanced control) and offers a plethora of functions beyond the creation, deletion, resizing and merging of disk partitions, sometimes even without the need to reboot the system.
The software provides partition copying and migration tools to alllow for easy hard drive upgrades and resizing of partitions between Mac OS X and Windows operating systems (very useful if you use your intel based Mac as a dual boot system). In addition, there is a simple to use backup feature to create full backups of your entire system or chosen files and a recovery CD creator for system recovery. The Boot Management feature allows the user to optimise the boot sequence of the system or even prepare the system for a new operating system (create a new primary partition etc.).
We found each wizard very easy to follow with each step explained fully. As with all Paragon software we have reviewed, the help file is literally bursting wth useful information, including walkthroughs of typical user scenarios. Each feature of the software is well explained and the advanced control provides even more features to allow for everything from disk defragmenting to surface tests. Paragon Partition Manager 10 Personal really is a fully featured software and is very reasonably priced (~£22)with enough features to keep any system running smoothly.
Paragon NTFS for Mac was tested by PC Magazin/Russian Edition and won the “Best Software of the year 2008″-award, in the category Network- and PC Backup.
Paragon Drive Backup 9.0 was tested and reviewed by PC PRO and won the TOP VALUE-Award.

John L. Jacobi says: “During my entire hands-on with DBE, I was waiting for something to pop and bite me so I could continue to indulge my Sherlockian fantasy with the words “Aha! Just as I suspected, Dr. Watson,” but nothing ever so much as nibbled. I created and restored partitions without incident and the recovery media the program created backed up and restored flawlessly as well. The interface was easy on the eye and the brain, with the possible exception of selecting the drive or partition to back up (the information provided in collapsible tree form was a bit confusing). Other than that, it was elementary.”
Paragon Drive Backup 9.0 Express was tested by chip.de and won the “Best Download of the day – Award“.

That means when restoring your data you don’t have to go through the time consuming process of reinstalling your applications. Rescue Kit for Mac OS X can be your Mac’s insurance policy. It would be especially nice for anyone who has both Mac and Windows partitions on their computer. Remember, don’t wait until after you lose all your data. Then it’s too late. Nobody wants to see their data go to that big hard drive in the sky.”

Peter Cohen writes: “The Rescue Kit for Mac OS X – Lite lets you perform a full backup and restore even if the operating system can’t be loaded, features a built-in “image browser” that lets you find and restore individual files, and lets you backup and restore from any accessible network. It supports commonly used file systems including FAT 16 and 32, NTFS, HPFS, EXT2FS, EXT3FS, Reiser and Apple HFS and HFS+.”

Paragon NTFS for Linux 5.0 was reviewed by one of the most famous publications Linux Magazine. The author compared the driver with open source ones and made the conclusion: “It does provide a low-cost and effective solution for many users”. He also underlined the product’s 70-page manual that was very understandable and step-by-step for him. The answer to Is It Worth It? Question was : “Whether this product is worth the money is definitely open for discussion. The biggest question is just how often you need to transfer data between Linux and Windows. I use the Windows on my system only for game playing. However, I created a second partition and formatted it as FAT32 in order to be able to easily copy data between the two systems. So, I can easily say that it is worth the money for the Personal Edition just so that I would be able to format both of the Windows partitions as NTFS rather than FAT32.”
