I really appreciate the value for the money and will continue using the free version as long as possible. Pros By far the ease of use keeps me using this program. I truly feel as if it is helping keep my computer clear to function smoothly and efficiently. Cons I still wonder if "Time Machine" needs to be a part of it and I am fearful of a lot of other options I am uneducated in utilizing.

" 3.0 Overall Rating 3.0 3.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 3.0 3.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 5/10 March 26, 2025 I was hopefull because of the ease of use in the GUI for Disk Drill to be able to recover some critical files. However, after going through part of the process they then hit you will a software charge. Pros I like the fact that Disk Drill is able to uncover deleted or lost files. Cons I do not like the fact that they offer this by default on Mac and yet you have to pay for it to recover anything at all.

Inoltre è compatibile sia per MacOS sia per Windows presenta molte funzioni riguardo all'integrità delle unità di memoria sia interne che esterne al dispositivo.

Gérante Design ### "ARNAQUE A FUIR" 1.0 Overall Rating 1.0 1.0 Ease of Use 1.0 1.0 Features 1.0 1.0 Customer Service 1.0 1.0 Likelihood to Recommend 0/10 November 18, 2024 Ils se cachent dans le fait de devoir regarder fichier par fichier dans la formule basique avant de payer. J'ai regarder des dossiers au hasard dans la multitude de fichiers que je devais récupérer et malheureusement rien ne s'est passé comme prévu. J'ai payé la formule pro pour absolument aucun résultat, les fichiers trouvés et restaurés n'étaient pas bons et inutilisables. Allez voir les concurrents comme Recuva plutôt qu'eux. Je suis outrée par leur comportement et aucun remboursement possible, vraiment à FUIR!! Pros Aucun ce n'est pas intuitif, vous pensez pouvoir vous fier aux miniature mais en cas de soucis on vous sort un panel de vérifications à faire avant tout achat Cons Les fichiers récupérés sont inutilisables Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site.

Pros Its scans quickly. you can sort the data by category and file size. Cons I haven't been able to recover a single piece of data using this software. Analytics is shared with the company (CLEVERFILES INC) by default. doesn't ask about sharing data on install. not only do they enable it by default but it's under your nose, i only realize they were taking data from me when i was looking through the settings.

Manager IT Food & Beverages ### "MacOS Data Recovery" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 0.0 0.0 Likelihood to Recommend 8/10 April 8, 2022 Pros Disk Drill is one of the best data recovery software available for Mac. The good thing about it is you get a preview before restoring the files either an image or a video all the previews are available with a few clicks. Disk Drill supports many file extensions to recover the data, including Databases and Microsoft Office files. You can save the session and restore it at any time without going back to the scratch and scan again, the session will load up quickly. Cons The only thing I didn't like about this software was the mistakenly deleted files of WhatsApp backup were not adequately restored it showed the audio files extension as ogg and they were not playable or preview wasn't available.

Attorney Law Practice ### "My Disk Drill Experience" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 9/10 March 8, 2022 Works as described. A highly recommended buy "just because" in the event of data loss, hard drive stops working etc.. It's better to have because you never know. Pros \- Modern UI - Feature rich; data loss recovery, duplicate file finder, data protection, smart monitoring and disk clean up - Data loss recovery tech/algorithms are God sent. If you have an old hardd rive that has seemed to "have given up" or become corrupted, disk drill is a must have to recovery files, photographs, documents etc... from the drive. Cons The software's SMART monitoring feature didn't seem to recognize the original NVME ssd in a Macbook Air 2013 for TRIM purposes.
