Symantec Norton Ghost 12

Wednesday October 03, 2007
Symantec (Australia) Pty Ltd | http://www.symantec.com.au
AUD
$90
Price at time of review.

Now a true all-in-one package thanks to file and folder backup, but it can’t match Acronis for value.

Symantec Norton Ghost 12
5 out of 6

"Easy to use software for complete backup"

Pros:
Fast, easy, painless.

Cons:
Takes up a fair amount of space on your drive that might affect users with small HDD's.
I haven't had so much experience with this kind of software so was relieved to find it intuative and unobtrusive. And..it does what it says! I needed to re-install xp and it was completely painless and swift to boot (no pun intended yuk yuk).

It’s easy to believe that registry cleaners fall into the category of “computer voodoo”. You expect to perform a few ritualistic gestures and gain a faster, less problematic computer.
