Pros

La facilidad para usarlo es genial, sin tener muchos conocimientos consigues usar todo con rapidez. Tampoco es que tenga muchas funciones, pero tampoco es una suite compleja, monta ISOs de manera rápida en una unidad virtual.

Cons

No tengo problemas con el programa, aunque sí es cierto que como tengas una unidad física con la letra que se crea la unidad virtual, te genera conflictos, pero es solo quitarla como virtual y crearla con otra letra.

Daemon Tools rappresenta un ottimo programma per montare immagini e unità virtuali. Personalmente l'ho utilizzato per installare sistemi operativi su altri pc e per creare immagini disco utili per i miei progetti universitari. Facile nell'installazione e nell'utilizzo. Consigliato.

Pros

Possibilità di montare più immagini contemporaneamente, interfaccia semplice e user friendly

Cons

Per l'utilizzo che ne ho fatto non ho riscontrato problemi

Está bien, siempre que no lo uso para nada exigente, simplemente montar una unidad y una imagen en ella va de maravilla.

Pros

La facilidad de uso que tiene Daemon tools es directamente asombrosa, es totalmente intuitivo y tiene pocas limitaciones, ninguna si eres un usuario normal o doméstico y no estás montando múltiples unidades a la vez, que saturaría el ordenador.

Cons

Si montas varias, el programa puede fallar y cerrarse porque deja de responder, me ha pasado un par de veces, siendo la versión de pago, creo que es simplemente cosa del ordenador, que no está bien optimizado el programa y le exige demasiado al ordenador, por lo que no llega y falla.

Creamos y montamos imágenes para la grabación posterior en formato físico portable (como CDs o PenDrives) y se autoreproduzca en los dispositivos de los centros educativos a los que acudimos.Además, como medida de seguridad de la empresa, montamos VHD con TrueCrypt para tener encriptados ciertos datos y evitar robo de credenciales y otros posibles riesgos.

Pros

La fluidez del programa es de lo mejor, no tiene tirones, no va lento ni cuando está montando una imagen, no te ocupa todo el procesador y/o RAM en el montado de disco, y puedes crear y eliminar unidades ópticas en un solo click.Aunque lo que más usamos en la empresa actualmente es la creación de un virtual hard drive con TrueCrypt para tener un disco duro encriptado.

Cons

En algunas opciones peca de simple y en otras de complicado, para abrir un VHD veracrypt tienes que buscar la opción, cuando el truecrypt lo tiene en el propio menú de inicio de esa sección del programa. No debe ser muy difícil añadir una opción más al menú principal, hay espacio en la interfaz.

Reasons for choosing DAEMON Tools

Es el único que conocíamos.

Mi hermano me recomendó Daemon Tools y desde que lo aprendí a usar, me ha servido muchísimo tanto a nivel personal como laboral, es fácil de usar y muy completo.

Pros

Es como tener una unidad de dvd solo que virtual, me ha servido muchísimo ya que mi laptop no trae unidad de dvd.

Cons

Todo me ha gustado, no tengo ninguna queja sobre el software.
