 Norton Ghost August 28, 2008
James R. Tuck (MO USA)
This product is not for the novice. The start-up book that accompanies the CD does not provide sufficient instructions to the novice. I had to have a friend help with the gosting of my small hard drive to my large hard drive. He used a five year old copy of Ghost to accomplish this effort.
 Norton, The Ghost with the most! August 27, 2008
Richard E. Faldasz (Marlboro, MA)
Once I got used to the new interface, the product did exactly what I needed. It even restores domain settings at work correctly so I don't have to go to IT every time I restore a setup on my system and have them reestblish my company network credentials.
fairly comprehensive backup & copy utility August 23, 2008
CS (Acton, MA, USA)
If what you're looking for is a complete backup utility, that's reasonably easy to use, this one might suit your purpose.
Installation, update, and activation are easy, similar to other Symantec programs. (This one also uses Live Update.) I do have an objection to the fact that Symantec never does a full uninstall -- they leave around stuff in the registry, as well as LiveUpdate, and it requires extra work (and some technical skill) to remove everything. I take off one star for that.
The setup is quite simple, especially if you follow their procedures. A full system backup is recommended, and the program will nag you about your system being "at risk" if you don't set up the full backup. You can in addition set up backup jobs for selectively backing up some of your files and folders. So for instance you might want to do nightly backup of your key folders, and weekly or monthly backup of the full system.
I would recommend that you use a network disk (NAS) for your backup -- there are many not-too-expensive products available, and I've been quite happy with the Buffalo products.
You can also use this program to do remote management of other computers on your network, but be aware that each computer needs its own license for the program.
One thing I don't like is that the backup files are not copies, they are in a compressed format. For daily backups I prefer to be able to make normal copies of files, so that I can go quickly to the backup folder and find a backup copy I might want. This optimizes my time and convenience over computer time and disk space, and this is how it should be. Or at least, this should at least be an option.
I take off another star for the nagging about full system backup, and the unavailability of a simple file backup or file sync (backup by copying selected files/folders directly from one disk to another).
But overall a solid program that does what it says, and does it competently. Just make sure what you want is what it wants to do. :-)

I purchased this product and am very disappointed with Symantec's customer service. I emailed them with a complaint that I was not able to load the product on more than one computer although it was purchased for home use. I stated that I would have requested a refund except I already purchased, installed it and ran it and needed to use it in the future. Without further discussion the refund was processed and I was emailed to be notified of the refund. I responded stating that I did NOT request a refund and that I did not want one and I needed the product and to please reverse the refund. I received another email stating the refund had been process and they IGNORED my request to reverse the refund. Then I attempted to find a phone number to contact them which is not given anywhere.
I consider the Customer Support to be the worst I have ever dealt with.
Life Saver. Never reinstall windows again :) August 8, 2008
Jim C. Nelson (Omaha, NE)
If I have computer problems now, I just Restore. I use to have to reformat the drive and reinstall windows, and then have to buy a new copy of Windows because of their limited installs. This pays for itself and keeps the Microsoft Dynasty out of my pocketbook. LOL
