1.0 out of 5 stars No support, September 27, 2007

By	B. Roos "dragon_saga" (Edgerton, KS United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Does not support Vista 64-bit. I bought this at a retail store and the box says supports windows vista. I get the product home only to find out it does not support 64-bit vistas which is not on the box any where. Also if you need support over the phone its 24.95 the first 10 minutes and then a certain dollar amount for every minute after that. Doesn't look like a very good company.

1.0 out of 5 stars Worst Software I ever purchased, September 20, 2008

By	Ronald R. Larsen (Camdenton MO USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I Purchased 'Perfect Image'on August 2, 2008 (Order# 1019051984). Product received Saturday August 30, 2008. Four weeks to deliver; not a good start.
After installing the product on my office computer, the CD drive wouldn't read discs. Error was "incorrect media". I tried using a USB DVD/CD, with the same results. I uninstalled the software, and the devices were once again usable.
I thought I would give the product another try on my laptop computer. Product loaded ok, and when I backed up my laptop, 'Perfect Image' indicated to log off and reboot for the changes to be effective.
That is when the lap top completly failed....on boot I get "Operating System not found" My laptop is totally wasted...wont boot from any MBR order, and like my office computer, the CD drive is "inop", as apperently is the HD.
Changing boot order, etc to no avail. It is extremely fortunate that I did not shut my office computer down before removing uninstalling 'Perfect Image', or I would have trashed it as well.
This is the worst software I have ever used, and I have been doing this for nearly 40 years. I am a EE with a Masters in computer Science, and have never encountered such a poor product, It obviously has serious compatibility issues.
