Editorial Review of EASEUS Partition Master Professional

Note: This program was previously known as EASEUS Partition Manager Professional. This review addresses version 3.5 of the program.

Partition managers aren't the rare birds they were once upon a time. There are now quite a few on the market--and of course you can create and delete partitions using XP's and Vista's limited disk management utilities. But there's always room for a best of breed, and although Easeus Partiton Manager Professional (henceforth PMP) doesn't quite achieve this, it comes close and has the potential to get there.

PMP's interface is what its competitor, Acronis's Disk Director's should be. It utilizes the same Windows Explorer look, but omits Disk Director's redundancies and offers better placed options. In general, it's more logically laid out. PMP lets you create, delete, move, and resize partitions as well as set them active or hide/unhide them. That's all that most users will need, but the program lacks the partition recovery features of its aforementioned rival. PMP offers both Windows and Linux versions in the same package--a good thing, as the Windows version and the boot disc the demo created were limited to the FAT and NTFS files systems.

My only real gripe about PMP is that, while it will create a bootable CD for accessing drives on non-bootable systems, it won't create a bootable thumb drive. Both Acronis's Disk Director and the free/donationware Parted Magic offer that ability. Running off of a flash drive cuts boot time in half on systems that support it.

There's a lot to like about Easeus Partition Manager Professional, and if you only do one operation at a time you can stick with the demo (batch operations aren't available). Otherwise, I'd probably stick with Parted Magic, since it's free/donationware, or pay ten bucks more for Disk Director and its recovery features.
