Clonezilla

Total robustness in disk cloning

Kommentare: Powerful and straightforward solution for professional disk cloning. Working with servers and workstation, this piece of software becomes a must in terms of reliability. Clonezilla works at low level on disk blocks to guarantee a 1:1 clone, preserving boot sectors and file structures on any disk.

Vorteile:

- Solid kernel and boot process - Any file system supported - Fast and reliable read-write operation - Comprehensive options and setup - Low resource consuming. Good for older hardware.

Nachteile:

- Not designed for non experienced users, requires experience and understanding of file systems and boot processes - Old fashion GUI can be surely improved, even keeping the terminal-look for maximum compatibility

A Great Open-Source Drive Tool

Kommentare: While lacking in some functions compared to paid competition and being less pretty, if Clonezilla does what you need it to it's hard to argue with its usability and wonderful price of absolutely free.

Vorteile:

Clonezilla is a powerful drive tool that allows for backing up, cloning, and partitioning of drives. It boots off of a flash drive, making it independent from the OS of whatever other drives are on the computer. While not especially intuitive, Clonezilla provides powerful tools that have given me little problem, with some safeguards to prevent you from causing harm to your computers. One of my favorite instances of using Clonezilla was recovering a corrupted drive that would not even be detected by other free drive tools.

Nachteile:

The interface is resembles some of the old DOS interfaces from the 90s, a far cry from more modern interfaces with even mouse support. Clonezilla is not intuitive to use, especially to those who aren't computer savvy. While Clonezilla supports any filesystem and file interface, it displays them using Linux's fileystem. Clonezilla also lacks some features compared to some paid options, such as backup scheduling, and granular backup control.

Classic cloning software, tricky to use

Vorteile:

A reliable cloning/backup solution and does well to keep the size of cloned disks down. We use it to image Test PCs for easy wiping back to a clean state.

Nachteile:

The UI is ugly and slow to navigate, making the software more laborious to use than it really should. It may be confusing for users not familiar with Linux, as it refers to disks as 'sda, sdb'.

Incredibly useful tool to have at your disposal

Kommentare: We recently purchased new machines to replace a handful of old ones, and they all needed an identical configuration. Clonezilla made it really easy to make an image and deploy it to all the new machines. I saved a lot of time that would have been spent tediously installing software and running configurations on all of them.

The software made it quick and easy to get going when I needed it, really helped me speed up the process in migrating to new computers.

Clonezilla for imaging

Kommentare: I have enjoyed working with this software, but I would probably try something else in the future.

Vorteile:

I have used Clonezilla for making images of hard drives and producing ISOs. It does a pretty good job. There are many formatting options to choose from and best of all it is free. There are some “paid” versions as well. It works really well in what it is designed for, which is system deployment.

It's free and extremely versatile - I use this any time I'm installing a new hard drive and want to image the existing drive onto the new hardware. Works every time, and you can even ignore bad sectors if the original drive is failing and you'd like to recover data.

Nachteile:

It can be a little daunting at first, but just be patient!

So good it should be way more expensive

Kommentare: This has become my go-to imaging software for all new system builds or backups.

Vorteile:

For being open source software this thing is amazing. Super fast & easy to clone disks & partitions, better than many paid alternatives.

Nachteile:

Like most cloning software, it is sometimes difficult to clone larger source onto a smaller destination (even if there is room). You can do it with Clonezilla, but takes jumping through a few hoops.
