Is Recoverit worth your time and money?
I personally tested Recoverit’s features and performance for a couple of data loss scenarios. First and foremost, the interface is very neat, user-friendly and intuitive. The software is suitable for anyone and everyone, even if you’re not a computer expert. All the recovery tools are pretty effective and recovered almost 98% of all the possible file formats that I included in the test data every time. Be it recovering data from trash/recycle bin, external drive or lost partitions, the recovery rate remained in the high 90s throughout. Even the scanning speed is superfast and can perform system crash data recovery in a matter of minutes.
Although you cannot recover files larger than 100 MB or perform RAW or bootable media recovery in the free version, you get to access all their tools absolutely for free. I’m pretty much convinced that Recoverit data recovery software is powerful enough to do what it has been designed for and is indeed one of the best free recovery software in the market.
