CrashProof interrupts application and program crashes, giving you time to save any work in progress. DataEraser overwrites all data on your hard drive, so you can be confident that sensitive information is eliminated. EasyUninstall safely uninstalls unwanted programs and files, removes Internet clutter, moves programs to a different drive, and finds room for disk-space hogs. Complete virus protection is provided by VirusScanner, which also includes a year of free virus updates from the Ontrack Web site. Crisis Center is an aid for data recovery due to software corruption, hard drive failures, virus attacks, user error, and natural disasters. Fix-It Utilities fights system slowdown, detects hard drive problems early, optimizes your hard drive, and fixes potential points of failure. It includes a defragmenter, one-step maintenance, disk cleaner, and an early warning system for hard drive failure. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Tech support is nonexistentI've struggled with this product for over a year now. Finally Ontrack support decided to tell me that they don't support SCSI. Since this is listed nowhere on the box, in the documentation, or at the web site, I'm in the process of trying to get a refund. Rating: - Useless in case of emergencyI purchased the product hoping to diagnose & hopefully fix a hard drive that had essentially crashed. The emergency disk that came with the program turned out to be useless -- no better than Microsoft's ScanDisk program. What worked? Downloading the diagnostic program made specifically for my hard drive by its manufacturer (Maxtor). I can't speak to the other utilities in the suite as I will be returning the program. Rating: - Very buggy software. Vendor acknowleges bugs but never fixesI tried this software on Windows 95 and Windows NT Workstation. If installed on NT Workstation, it installs 2 background tasks which will not shutdown when the system shuts down. Instead you get a prompt stating "the task cannot shutdown automatically, do you want to terminate it." The uninstaller is very dangerous as it removes entries from the registry that should not be removed. The "Move" feature (to move an application from one machine to another) is documented as being able to move from one ...

I was looking for an alternative to Norton after I had some problems running it under Windows ME. SystemSuite did not prove to be any more stable under ME. Thinking the problem was Microsoft's fault (which may still be partially the case), I went back to Windows 98SE. Unfortunately, SystemSuite's performance did not improve. It crashed repeatedly under Win98, whereas I never had any such problems with ... Read More Rating: - Pure GarbageBe very careful if you purchase this product. It tells you that you can delete some files when in reality you should not. To me, it is useless a Registry Cleaner with this behavior. The Disk Fragmentation utility is one of the worst I have ever seen. Half of all the utilities are just pure garbage. Do not even think on using the anti-virus, it is lousy and it slows down your machine. The Crash Guard utility stops your computer from crashing... by freezing it!! If you have another suite installed in your ... Read More |
