Raise Data Recovery VS UpdraftPlus

Raise Data Recovery is a versatile cross-platform data recovery program for users of all skill levels. Its easy-to-use Wizard-based interface helps to restore lost or deleted files in a quick and hassle-free manner so that even users without previous experience in data recovery can cope with it with a couple of clicks.

This software helps to recover images, photos, documents, audio, video and other types of files in most common data loss cases, including files deleted with Shift+Delete keys or from the Recycle Bin, or data disappearance because of a system error, a virus infection or an accidental disk formatting.

Raise Data Recovery can restore data missing from all types of physical data storage devices such as internal and external HDD and SSD, USB flash memories and memory cards. Moreover, it can perform an automatic assembly of basic RAID setups and detect a number of spanned volumes in order to recover data from them, provided they are not corrupted.

The program is absolutely safe for the existing data, as it processes storages in the read-only mode.

There is a free trial of Raise Data Recovery that can be downloaded without providing credit card details. The trial version provides access to all program’s functions and even allows saving an unlimited number of recovered files up to 256 KB each. And to save files above that size limit, it’s necessary to order a license.

There are two license options to choose from: Short-Term Support and Long-Term Support. Both of them allow a user to recover files lost or deleted from a wide variety of file systems employed in Windows, macOS and Linux. The only difference between the two licenses consists in the free updates period duration: in case of Short-Term Support it's 30 days, and in case of Long-Term Support, 360 days.
