Firstly I’d like to thank the Paragon Software Group for allowing me to review this software.
Upon opening you are faced with the brand new interface developed for Partition Manager 10.0 Pro.
I find this to be a very efficient interface. It definitely gives off the air of being the control centre of the program
For those of you have used the free version, you may be used to the classic view but fear not, it is still available.
You are faced with a plethora of options when you start using this program. Not only does it offer the usual Create, Delete, Resize and Merge partition abilities but it also gives you:
Copying and migration: Hard disk migration, copy partition.
Mac related operations: Re-distribute free space between Mac OS X and Windows.
Back-up and rescue: Back-up, restore, transfer files, burn rescue kit.
Boot management: Boot manager, install new OS.
It really is a powerhouse of utilities. People who are regularly dual booting and demoing new operating systems would really benefit from this because, as we all know, things don’t always go to plan.
At $79.95, £47.96 for the UK, this software is an investment. On the flip side it could definitely save a lot of misery.
A must for power users. Download the trial if you don’t want the commitment.

Interesting Software, I like the fact it has a Boot Manager built-in, how does it work out for you?
Well i, by no means, use it to its full capabilities but its just one of those programs that doesnt argue with you. The boot manager works very well. I like the ‘install new OS’ option as it prepares your drives for a specific OS. Good stuff.
I like the "install a new operating system" option, because it prepares to run certain OS. Good stuff. Interesting software, I like the fact that it has a built-in Boot Manager…
