Pricing is fair, bundles are often available so big marks for selling at reasonable prices. The licensing is now only very painful (think dentist) rather than excruciating (think dungeon, medieval torture).
I have 15 Paragon licenses for various products and I dread deploying a new license. The licensing system is a complete nightmare. Much too much world invented here syndrome in HDM. Who knows what the future will bring with HDM? Why Paragon had to create its own backup format is another mystery for me. Native backup formats give me great confidence I'll be able to access my backups in the future (Apple disk images). For backups I continue to prefer SuperDuper! (working in High Sierra!) which uses native Apple formats. One attractive theme with small/medium/large typeface sizes (not all elements should be the same size of course, but they should be resized proportionally depending on your choice) would be much better than three themes with nearly infinite (but still inadequate: with larger typeface some columns remain too narrow to read all the info) customisation options.
Why HDM has to be so ugly is a mystery to me. Just configuring the interface to be readable is half an hour's work for a CSS designer. For the moment, expert users only though. HDM is an awkward but powerful attempt at a replacement. Had Apple not crippled Disk Utility to the point of making it useless in El Capitan/Sierra/High Sierra I'd stick with Disk Utility. What is there in HDM are file integrity checks (something like Disk First Aid and the now missing Fix Permissions routine). RAID support seems very thin, the incremental backups are not compatible with anything Apple (proprietary Paragon format!). HDM, is a strange bird and less immediately useful than you'd think despite it's greater capability than Apple's Disk Utility.
MAC DISK MANAGEMENT MAC
Paragon Hard Disk Manager is the ideal system- and data-management solution for Mac.
