Partition Manager 12 Server10.1.19.15721

Storage devices can now be found in all shapes and size specifications. When setting up your computer, it's best to organize available space to leave dedicated volumes for the OS and others like movies or music. Windows comes equipped with a basic partitioning tool, but others on the market such as Partition Manager 12 Server are packed with more features and enhanced functionality.

Part of a bigger picture

Before rushing to go through the setup process note that the application is now part of a bigger suite of disk utilities, namely Paragon Hard Disk Manager Business, so you might want to check it out to see if it suits your needs better. However, the program in question still works like a charm and you can fully take advantage of all its features.

Intuitive design quickly gets you up and running

The visual design leaves nothing more to be desired. Most utilities are wizard-driven, fitted with helpful descriptions and hints so you don't get stuck along the way. Your dashboard is equipped with a side panel that stores major areas to manage, like partitioning, backup and rescue, boot management and partition manager. Depending on your selection, available options are displayed along with short descriptions.

Powerful support for drives and file systems

Flexibility seems to be a strong point, with the possibility to target nearly everything that can store data, as well as the majority of known file system types. What's more, the abundance of settings does not overwhelm or burden decision making, with options being well-organized so the process runs smooth. Advanced settings can be accessed, but these too are intuitive and can also be managed by less experienced users.The partitioning counterpart gives you full control over storage devices connected to your computer. As such, you are able to create, delete, resize and merge partitions and following a few steps is all there is to it. External devices can also be targeted, thus broadening the horizon of possibilities.

Extra safety with backup utilities

This is not all the application can do. Paying a visit to the backup and rescue feature lets you save important files or even entire drives before attempting to change partitions. This can be done either locally, through network devices, as well as burning multimedia files to CD/DVD. For even extra safety, there's an option to create a rescue kit, which enables your system to boot in case unexpected events occur.

To sum it up

Bottom line is that Partition Manager 12 Server is a powerful and reliable application that can be used to fully manage space, even though it's now part of a bigger picture. It flawlessly runs even on the latest Windows iterations, while the abundance of features it comes with, intuitive design and wizard-driven processes make sure anyone can cleverly manage partitions and back up data.
