Data Destroyer Testimonials

When I was researching data wipe utilities, Data Destroyer impressed me with its great deal of user control and flexibility when selecting how data is overwritten. I was also impressed by the fact that the utility uses unbuffered, direct-to-hardware writes when purging data. After using the product, I'm also impressed with Data Destroyer's flexibility and ease of use. Data Destroyer can produce NSA-level data eradication on anything from a file to the balance of an entire hard disk. Not only that, but repetitive operations, like removing temporary internet files, can be easily defined and stored away for future use. I find it to be a powerful, intuitive and easy to use utility that I would not hesitate to recommend to friends and other IT colleagues.

I recently needed to use Data Destroyer on two computers that no longer have internet access. I used another computer with email access to obtain the activation keys. I typed the key into a text file, saved it to the clipboard, and clicked on the button in Data Destroyer that said it would obtain the key from the clipboard. Everything worked smoothly. The only caveat I would give is to be sure you type the activation key EXACLY as it is given to you. Better is to copy it from the email onto a floppy and transfer it to the destination computer. In any case, Hermetic's support was wonderful and quick, and Data Destroyer worked as it should. It is a great product.
