Don't know why people could not get 100% satisfactory results from using Zinstall's Migration Pro tool... it worked perfectly in my case, Not once did I have to intervene, once I set my parameters in their opening screens. Their software ran to completion without a glitch! During the migration, their % completed stat was spot on and not a constant 36%, as one reviewer mentioned. If I have a need for another PC to PC transfer, it will be Zinstall that will get my business. Why? Because they delivered what they advertised!

ZInstall 'Easy migration' is everything but easy. First requires ethernet connection between the two PCs but no info on how to configure. Requires both PCs be connected to the internet (SW just fails to initialize with no error message several times until finally it tells you it needs an internet connection to 'validate' itself. This is RIGHT AFTER SUPPLYING A DOWNLOAD KEY FOR THE EXECUTABLE!) SW is extremely slow to start, took 10+minutes to detect I needed a windows update, really? Took several minutes to detect the PC it was running on- the brand new one! Progress shows 36% complete but only 13GB of 422GB have transferred. Still shows 36% complete with 19GB of 422GB transferred. Shows its writing to HDD at only 700KB/s while loading the Intel core I3-8100 CPU at 38%. Its going to take a REALLY long time to transfer, imagine if it was over WiFi. Complains about the connection between the PCs but gives no indication its having issues until it just stops transferring. Restarted the old PC but it's been over 10 minutes for the application on the new PC to reconnect and start the transfer again. Took half the time to reboot the old PC than it does for this application to detect a connection on the new PC. Seems I will have to babysit this for hours. It's now 32GB of 422GB transferred and still shows....... wait for it..........36% complete! This was relatively expensive for some really buggy and HORRIBLY inefficient SW. I suggest you find another solution- I REALLY wish I had.

was skeptical of how this was going to work. Wow, was i ever surprised at how well it copied everything from my old computer to my new one! Customer service was excellent. I highly recommend

I was pleasantly surprised with Zinstall. I have tried the other migration software. They left a lot to be desired. They left me with quite a mess to clean up. This is not what Zinstall does. The result of the migration was a complete copy of my old computer. The support I got was outstanding. The Zinstall showed a problem with my source computer. I had not known about the problem. Zinstall support worked with me to resolve the problem. The support stayed with me until the migration was complete. I will use Zinstall again, without any reservations.

As an 82 year old, and not very literate in computer matters, I was able to transfer all the files, programmes etc to my new computer without a problem and without professional help. I am most impressed.

I am a computer consultant located in Boise Idaho, USA. I stumbled across your product in a search to transfer my windows 7 environments on my wife and my computer to new windows 10 computers. I was so NOT looking forward to fiddling around with years worth of programs and data. Some programs had been orphaned as I did not have the original source to reinstall on the new computers. The cost was seemingly steep compared to the competitors but I was convinced you were worth the cost (family pack) and took the plunge. I just finished my second transfer last night with no hitches, just like the first one I did for my wife. I always try the risky stuff out on her first because I love her so much... and because my computer is used to generate the family income so if things are going to go bad - ladies first! I am so amazed! I only had to reauthorize my Office 2007 including Outlook, and my old Dreamweaver came over without a hitch. Had to reinstall iTunes but it then linked into all my music after that. It even brought over Live Mail which a number of customers are "stranded in using". Praise the Lord. At least that will give me some breathing room to get them migrated to something with a future. It did not migrate my old Quicken or Quickbooks but I expected that as I read somewhere that it wouldn't do that. Bottom line, I am looking at becoming a partner as there are many potential old customers that need to get from win7 to win10 and this is a great way to do it.

THE Backup I've been looking for. FullBack is just seriously the kind of backup that I wanted. It saves apps, saves favorites, saves emails, saves everything. I have been using it for a while now, 290GB on the computer. No problems so far. It even compresses or something, so it only uses 310 of space after couple month worth of incremental backups, which is another kind of awesome. I think the only suggestion would be to be able to control which backups are saved instead of leaving it up to automation, but it is not that big of a deal. Maybe can be done in a future FullBack. Anyway, gladly recommend it.

So this is a followup to my original review of Zinstall. After installing their winwin product, which didn't work. I ended up calling support, the support person provided me a link to upgrade to the 'product' that would work, because I had purchased the 'cheap' software. Guess what. I upgraded, and attempted to moved my apps and files to the new computer. So now, none of my Microsoft programs work. Other programs had to be re-download and reinstalled, but I cannot install anything from the Microsoft store since I attempted the move. Frankly speaking, this software does not work as advertised and is NOT worth any amount of money. I wouldn't attempt it again, even if it was free. My computer is almost usable in it's current state. But not quite, so now I get to reset the computer and start over again. And I definitely won't be using Zinstall to copy the files (I can do that by hand).
