Who AOMEI Partition Assistant is for

  • Fits if you want a free partition tool for a personal Windows PC
  • Makes sense if you'd rather buy a lifetime licence than rent one

Who it is not for

  • Not for you if you use it for work on Standard, as the free edition is for personal use
  • Watch out: the yearly Pro plan renews automatically
  • Watch out: Server, Unlimited and Technician editions have their own order pages and prices
  • Tight if you want recovery too, as that is a separate paid product

Good to know

Good for

  • Windows home users who want free partition management
  • People upgrading to an SSD who want OS migration in the same tool
  • Technicians and MSPs who need Technician or Unlimited licensing

Worth knowing

  • Windows only; the Mac product on the site, NTFS for Mac, is a separate program.
  • Server, Unlimited and Technician editions are sold on their own order pages with separate prices, not covered here.
  • The yearly Pro plan renews automatically; a 90-day money-back guarantee is stated on the order page.
  • Data recovery and PC cleanup are separate paid products, though the site also offers free versions of each.

Keep it

That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 152 of the 186 other desktop utilities grade higher. It costs $49.95 a year.

What you could not
