class="feedbacks-text"><div> I`ve used R-Drive Image for several months now, and it`s awesome. Dependable, easy; it just plain works! I also appreciate the straightforward, reasonable and clear pricing, which is why I initially chose R-Drive Image over others. </div></div> <div class="feedbacks-info"> <span class="feedbacks-rating"> <span></span><span></span><span></span><span></span><span></span> </span> <span class="feedbacks-author"> John Reid </span> </div> </div> <div class="feedbacks-item feedbacks-page"> <div class="feedbacks-text"><div> I am currently using R-Drive Image on a trial basis on Windows 11. Ironically enough, I had installed it and created an image prior to trying to see if a 2011 Acronis True Image disc I had would work. True Image wouldn`t completely install but then wouldn`t uninstall either. So I used the r-tools backup and restore image capabilities to recover from a backup and restore screw-up from another company. ;-) <br />However, what I wanted to suggest is that you create a Home version of your software that may have slightly more limited capabilities but a more intuitive interface for the Home user. I found image creation to be fairly easy. I fumbled a little on the image restore due to a lack of both experience with this process and lack of guidance from the software. I am finding the scheduling information needed by the software to be too technical for the average user. For example, in order to schedule backups, it isn`t obvious that you need to go to the tab called Tasks and Scripts. Once the user fumbles their way successfully to the rotation options, they need to determine the maximum number of images. How should I know? I know the frequency I want of full vs. incremental images, but I have no idea how much disk space they require. Maximum size of all image files? I have intuited that is probably referring to the amount of disk space available for the backups, but I`m not sure. You could put some clarification on these lines (in parenthesis) in the GUI that would be helpful. <br />It seems like it wouldn`t be too difficult to create a wizard for the home user that asked simple questions and set the parameters for them. <br />What do you want to back up? <br />Where do you want to put it? <br />What type of backup and how often? <br />How much disk storage space do you have available for backups? <br />What criteria do you want to use for deleting old backup images? <br />Don`t get me wrong. This appears to be very capable, high quality software and I would buy it if I found it easier to use. As it is, I`m not sure yet. I just wish setup and use was more straightforward. I will continue to experiment with it, but figuring out how to use its capabilities isn`t something I plan to spend a lot of time on. </div></div> <div class="feedbacks-info"> <span class="feedbacks-rating"> <span></span><span></span><span></span> </span> <span class="feedbacks-author"> David Nelson </span> </div> </div> <div class="feedbacks-item feedbacks-page"> <div class="feedbacks-text"><div> This help file needs to be updated. None of the names match with the current version of R-Drive Image Standalone 7.1 (Build 7110) <br /> <br />https://www.drive-image.com/DriveImage_Help/restorefromanimage.htm <br /> <br />For example, there is no ` Restore from an Image` on the GUI. Instead there is `Restore Image`. And there is no `Image File Selection` on the GUI. Instead there is `Select image file`. And so on... My suggestion is to open the app, go through a file restore, write down the steps exactly as done, and then update the help file. That would move the rating from 4 to 5 in my opinion. The app works fine but it takes some fiddling to work through the steps from an outdated help file. </div></div> <div class="feedbacks-info"> <span class="feedbacks-rating"> <span></span><span></span><span></span><span></span> </span> <span class="feedbacks-author"> Andrew Eckhardt </span> </div> </div> <div class="feedbacks-item feedbacks-page"> <div class="feedbacks-text"><div> The clean user interface makes this product so easy to use.

Every once in a while I try to test drive image software to see if *anyone* out there made things as easy as PowerQuest did in their 2002 version of Drive Image.<br />As you may know Symantec bought PowerQuest with the express purpose of killing PowerQuest's Drive Image because it was superior to Norton Ghost.<br />In any case, here's what PowerQuest's Drive Image 2002 does on my system and what no other software does. (I hope you accept my frank criticism): I partitioned my hard drive to C: (Windows XP) D:(Windows Millennium) and E:(where I keep all large programs installed as well as Drive Image files.)<br />If I can, I usually boot into either operating system to within seconds re-image the other. I start PowerQuest Drive Image 2002, and then this happens:<br />Restore Image > Finish > Yes > Yes<br />Four clicks (!) And in fraction of a second the operating system partition is being restored.<br />Why four clicks, because it retains the information on what to do from the last time it was used, allowing the user to do Restore Image > Finish > Yes > Yes.<br />It does the same for Creating the image files so they too can be created by simultaneously clicking on Next a couple of times.<br />*No other Drive Image software can do that.*<br />Also, Image creation restoration is done without rebooting. Why can PowerQiest Drive Image 2002 lock the drives and perform imaging without rebooting while others cannot, including your program? <br />Your program works under old Windows Operating systems, this is great, because I do not use Windows Me but it's convenient to reimage my Windows XP by simply rebooting into it to do so. <br />And I noticed a fine feature in your program where I can double click on the Drive Image file itself, then perform the Image Restore from there. This is an improvement over PowerQuest Drive Image 2002.<br />Now if you can just get your program to remember previously used settings and get it to be able to lock the drive without the need to reboot the system...<br />Either way, studying performance of PowerQuest Drive Image 2002 is the key to beating Symantec. Good luck. </div></div> <div class="feedbacks-info"> <span class="feedbacks-rating"> <span></span><span></span><span></span><span></span><span></span> </span> <span class="feedbacks-author"> Jason Fletcher </span> </div> </div> <div class="feedbacks-item feedbacks-page"> <div class="feedbacks-text"><div> Thank you very much for fixing the R-Drive Image icon.

I was so amazed how fast it was able to create a partition image "on the fly". I literally moved different OS's (Win2K, WinXP and Win2K3) in minutes countless times and flawless back to the C: drive. This is great for me as I need to test software sometimes on different kernels/OS. I was so impressed being a developer myself. <br />The above was all done by creating the OS on the C: drive then from within Windows and R-Drive creating an image on a separate partition on the same disk. In this example it's a 250 GB Raid 1 Server. I also created a Bootable R-Drive disc and countless times was able to change out the C: drive to a different OS without any issues using the bootable version of the software. And you know as well as I it's the best way to restore an image because nothing is running. <br />End of Story right? NOPE: <br />I was so please with the above that I almost was going to suggest our IT Department to switch over to your product from currently using Norton Ghost which we are having some issues with mostly the time it takes. <br />Before I could suggest R-Drive image, I had to do some final regression testing and that was with creating and restoring images using the bootable version. This is were it stopped me dead in my tracts to suggest using it for our IT Department it failed miserably in several areas and restore environments. <br />I am hoping the following regression testing report will help the developers fix several bugs I have found with the bootable version. I basically really liked the GUI in the Windows environment, BUT, it is just as if not more important that I can restore images that have been burned onto CD or DVD. <br />Here are my findings with the Bootable Version of R-Drive Image. <br />Issue 1: <br />R-Image will not write an image to an NTFS partition from the bootable version. I kept getting an error message stating it could not write to a protected or read only drive. Took me awhile to figure it out and I changed the volume to a FAT32 partition and the Bootable R-Drive successfully produced an image. <br />Issue 2: <br />This issue caused me to decline suggesting this to roll out the product at a production level because it failed on all accounts to successfully restore an image from CD's <br />Here are the examples: <br />Example 1: <br />From within in windows, I burned a restore image that comprised of 5 discs. This were done directly to the writeable CD burner and R-Drive successfully created them. Now to restore it back to the C: drive and here is where I have found several bugs. <br />I then placed the bootable CD of R-Drive Image in the CD Rom and then rebooted the machine. In a few moments the GUI came up like it has before and presented me the start-up screen 'Select an Action'. <br />I selected 'Restore from Image' then hit the 'Next' button. <br />I am then at the second screen showing a list of partitions as well as the CDO (CD Rom). <br />Next I took out the bootable CD and inserted Disc 5 (last disc) of the set I burned directly to CD and mounted and opened the image (Win2k_CD5.arc). then click the 'OK' button. <br />Now I'm at the next screen 'Select Source' (isn't the CD image and above and Source the same?) but it's showing me the C: drive partition as an option. This screen makes no sense at all. Anyway, I tried several options even going up levels to show the partitions. When select the option 'C:', I am advanced to the 'Select target Object' screen. <br />I know select C: like I did when I did it from restoring an image from another partition then advance to the next screen. <br />The screen now gives me a warning message 'You selected the existing disk or drive as the destination place' which is normal as done from restoring an image from an image on a partition. I click the OK button. <br />I am now advanced to another Error message screen 'Please select object of the same type as source one' then I click the 'OK' button. <br />Now I am presented with yet another Error message 'Please select at least one appropriate disk object then am returned back to 'Select target object' (get stuck in a loop). <br />Finally, click cancel to get back to the original screen but now there is yet another issue. Seems getting back to the original screen, R-Drive Image has lost the partition information. Now I can't even eject the CD and end up having to hard boot the machine and quickly remove the disc before it completes the boot sequence. <br />I reboot the machine then give it a try again but end up stuck in a loop and am unable to restore the image from CD's. <br />Example Two: <br />In this example I first burned the images to another partition then burned the 5 image files to CD then went through the sequence <br />Only this time I got stuck in different loop where it countless times bounced me back and forth between asking for disc one and disc five. After several attempts I got fed up with it and aborted the try. <br />Example Three: <br />I thought maybe the images I created may have something wrong with them when I created them on the separate partition so I then stuck the bootable CD back in the CD Drive and selected the CD5 image file on the Partition and R-Drive was able to successfully restore the image back to the C: drive ' hmmmm. That tells me the 5 images I created from the Windows environment were all good. <br />Example Four: <br />Now I am going to try this on another system. Got the same results would not restore the image from CD's <br />Example Five: <br />I now was going to try this second system another way. This system has the OS on Partition C: with 19 GB space (9 GB used up) and a blank Partition D: with 8 GB. I created an image file on the Drive D: which compressed down to 5 GB then tried to restore the image back using the bootable CD again it failed and a few times the system just froze up on me <br />Summary: <br />Your product works great to produce an image to another partition (on one system it did not) from a Windows environment or create an image using a the bootable version to another partition. Restores where always successful on the one machine. <br />Restoring a image from CD's was not accomplished no matter what options I tried or selected. <br />It is critical and absolutely important that I or any IT department be able to create and restore an Image from media. R-Drive Image failed on all accounts to do this and give it my 'Thumbs down'. Not only did it not successfully restore images from media, the GUI seems to have a missing screen when using this option as mention in the first example. <br />I know this last section sounds hard on you guys, but, I was so looking forward to using the software based on how it functioned restoring images from another partition. <br />I spend I think 44 dollars and it is worth it to me for my machines for my small business, but can not recommend or suggest nor buy additional seats until all the above have been fixed. <br />I certainly hope this length evaluation and my time will help make R-Drive Image better than Ghost in future builds. <br />Mike Klipich </div></div> <div class="feedbacks-info"> <span class="feedbacks-rating"> <span></span><span></span><span></span><span></span> </span> <span class="feedbacks-author"> Mike Klipich </span> </div> </div> <div class="feedbacks-item feedbacks-page"> <div class="feedbacks-text"><div> Guys!<br />Awesome software (Image), really like the virtual drive feature! <br />How about an incremental image feature, so I can do backups as well?<br />Thanks for a great product!<br />Doug </div></div> <div class="feedbacks-info"> <span class="feedbacks-rating"> <span></span><span></span><span></span><span></span><span></span> </span> <span class="feedbacks-author"> Doug Armstrong (Ratio DesignLab) </span> </div> </div> <div class="feedbacks-item feedbacks-page"> <div class="feedbacks-text"><div> I'm a huge supporter of shareware and freeware.

However, I would like to know if there are plans to introduce better compression imaging as I am finding that the resulting 15Gb image for a 40Gb drive is just too large to store on a file server for archiving. <br />Thanks, <br />Factor Records Australia </div></div> <div class="feedbacks-info"> <span class="feedbacks-rating"> <span></span><span></span><span></span><span></span> </span> <span class="feedbacks-author"> Mike (Factor Records) </span> </div> </div> <div class="feedbacks-item feedbacks-page"> <div class="feedbacks-text"><div> Great Product BUT ! ... <br />Many of my clients use 1.44Meg stiffy's to back-up their data... <br />The rest use CD-R's or CD-RW's... <br />I cannot get your prog to work on either !? <br />WHY ??!! <br />Perhaps I am doing something wrong ?! <br />Please advise soonest... <br />Kind and concerned regards; <br />Laurence <br />South Africa </div></div> <div class="feedbacks-info"> <span class="feedbacks-rating"> <span></span><span></span><span></span><span></span><span></span> </span> <span class="feedbacks-author"> Laurence Steven Smith (CyberActive) </span> </div> </div> <div class="feedbacks-item feedbacks-page"> <div class="feedbacks-text"><div> Curious why there have been no updates on your R-DriveImage product.

I don't want to experiment to get these answers. <br />Most users who have reached the point of buying backup software have already given about a quart of blood to their machine. Inclusion of answersto the following in your help section would be nice: <br />1. For system backup, do I want "sector-by-sector" or "useful data"? I'm not sure what you consider "useful data" on a system backup. <br />2. I have multiple partitions on my primary "0" drive. During a system restore from A, with the limited screen info, how will the space be allocated? I am referring to restoring only the system partition and not disturbing the other partitions on the drive. <br />3. What is the chance of increased errors when using compression on any backup? Is compression recommended on the backup of a system partition? If so, how much? <br />4. (trivial) How many floppies should be on hand when creating floppy start-up disks? <br />Your GUI and instruction sections are done nicely, but you know how it is, the things are never really finished. <br />Hope this feedback helps. <br /> </div></div> <div class="feedbacks-info"> <span class="feedbacks-rating"> <span></span><span></span><span></span><span></span> </span> <span class="feedbacks-author"> Jerry Eberle </span> </div> </div> <div class="feedbacks-item feedbacks-page"> <div class="feedbacks-text"><div> Hello good folk<br />I am very happy with the product and will now happily sell it over other products particularly a common one with a white sheet over its head boo boo.<br />I have one item however that would be a wish/nice to have.<br />When cloning my laptop as a test I proceeded to restore the image.
