Active KillDisk Reviews & Product Details

I like that it supports more than 20 sanitization standards (including the newest IEEE 2883) and its ease of use. Active@ KillDisk's customization is also worth mentioning, particularly in terms of the sanitization certificates and labels, as well as the ability to run scripts on the accompanying boot disk. This feature enables users to automatically start a drive wipe by simply inserting a USB drive into a PC. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I am not a fan of the licensing system, as I feel it could have been explained more clearly. When you purchase KillDisk software, you receive a license that allows you to erase two drives at the same time. If you need to handle more drives simultaneously, you have to buy an additional license for each extra slot. While I think this approach is acceptable, I do wish the website had provided a clearer explanation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Active@ KillDisk is data deletion software that’s both easy to use and effective. It makes the data deletion process straightforward, and it does the job reliably. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

So far, I haven’t noticed any downsides to this software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I appreciate most is the ability to select the number of overwrite passes. Since I handle hard drives from Admin, police, and fire departments, these require a higher level of data sanitation than those used by regular end users. I like how easy it is to install and use.

I am frustrated by how slow it is to overwrite. This aspect really detracts from my experience with the product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's simple to use and guarantees the data is securely erased. It will even verify the disk has been erased after completion. The amount of info on about the disk including partition tables is a nice feature too.There is even a freeware version that does great for most tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The interface is somewhat basic, but it gets the job done in the end. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Active KillDisk is unreliable when it comes to erasing data from my drive. It needs to provide me with a sense of security knowing that my sensitive information is unable to be retrieved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The less user friendly interface makes it difficult to use for individuals, like me who're not particularly tech savvy. It lacks the ability to personalize the wiping process according to my requirements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We used killdisk to completely wipe our harddrives before we had them physically distroyed Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The biggest downside for me is that when you go through the process for a dod class wipe it takes a long time. I also wish I had a way to wipe multiple drives at one time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is extremely simple to use and works amazingly well. It is a solid product that helps us erase drives on retired and replaced Servers. It makes sure that our data does not fall into the wrong hands. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would really like more detailed options. When a director enters the IT department, it would be nice for them to see Active Killdisk operating and more visually. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like Killdisk because it can securely erase any file on my hard drive, and since it runs through a disk, it can be used to erase a hard drive that has an operating system installed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't think there's anything that I dislike about killdisk, but I think if it supports more wipe options, that would take the experience to a whole another level. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
