    Easy to use. Can select what to transfer if not wanting to copy everything. It warns about programs that may not transfer properly. Did a win7 to win 10 transfer of programs and data. With 400GB it takes like 10hours using wifi. A cabel would been faster. Did not have one s used wifi. Notice the program gets locked to the used computers but do not see this as an issue.

    Ordered digital version that was "delivered" into the BB digital library. I could not retrieve the software but atleast could see the license key. Working with Laplink I was able to upload the software and get it to work. Transfer took 6 hours after spending 2 hours with Laplink. There has to be a better way!!

    Works well if you're copying a very basic PC

    I bought 3 copies of PCmover to copy 3 PCs. The first two moves were perfect. When I booted up the new PCs they looked and worked just like the respective old PCs. The third PC was a problem. When the copy completed the new PC would not boot. After a couple tries, the PC offered me several options for trying to comlete the boot. The only option that would result in a boot-up was to reset to the "last good configuration." When that boot completed I found that only files had been copied...no Start Menu, no apps, no Desktop. I called LapLink support for help (you can't re-run a copy...it s a one-time deal). I gave control of my PC to the tech rep and she made a bunch of adjustments and uninstalls, then kicked off the copy process again. She ended the call by telling me to reboot the new PC when the copy completed. I ended up in the same no-boot situation I had been in the first time. I've asked for a refund for this copy of PCmover but LapLink has not responded.

    This software does a great job of moving over all your data/programs to a new device. Transferring over using wifi can be quite slow, recommend purchasing their USB cable to speed up the process.

    It took a few hours to transfer files and programs from my old computer to my new one but it worked very well. My new computer fired right up with everything working well.

    An absolutely essential product when one acquires a new computer. Amazing ability to transfer substantially all (i) data files and, more importantly, (ii) operating programs.

    It worked after a few hiccups involving disconnecting during transfer but could have easily been my internet. It worked seamlessly otherwise.

    This is probaby the best data moving software I have every used. It basically moved everything from my old computer to the new one, including my Office items on Access and Excel. In the past I would have to re-install Office Professional. Not this time!!

    Worked as advertised. Took about 6hrs to migrate everything from my old laptop to the new one. I read in the reviews to turn off s mode on your new windows product, so i did. Turn off anything that puts your computer to sleep or stand by. That's the advice that worked for me.

    The product worked quite well. I had a little confusion on moving my saved passwords. I called customer support on a Sunday afternoon and the phone was answered on the first ring, no hold time. The tech that answered was able to talk me through the solution in short order. I will be a repat customer as needed.

    Was a very slow, overnight process. However, I'm not someone who knows how to do this task on my own, and this product did the job for me. For that reason, I give it 5 stars.

    While it won't move 100% of apps, I find this useful for many PC upgrades, especially when the user wants to replicate their old setup as much as possible, this does it and saves time.

    Loved the ease of transferring files. I did need to physically connect computers because it was taking way too long for transfer. Not everything is copied but most is.
