Customer Reviews of Norton Ghost 2003 [OLD VERSION]
Helpful so long as you're patient I've used this product for four years. While I've been displeased with it at least a half a dozen times, I eventually got used to its being "moody" and it behaves like it should when I need backups onto CD's. However, if(as another reviewer wrote), Symantec no longer offers tech support, I couldn't enthusiastically endorse it.
NG2003 and large backups
I got this software mainly because of its Windows interface. I have also been using older versions without hassle.

>With time everything gets bigger and larger including the volume of data stored on hard disks. So, I will just mention the problems I had with reference to this context:
<

<

<
>"N_D1P4_Bks_Phys_Astro_Math_Sci" + "O_D1P5_EE_Tex_Hobbies" + "P_D1P6_CompuDataBase"+ etc. in one go) then you are sure to get a message that NG2003 does not support such long names. The solution is to break up the job into a number of smaller units.
<
>- The program hangs if the right USB version (connection) is not chosen. No messages.
<
>- The program can backup onto large hard disks (with 48bit Lba enable) but is unable to read the files later if the total backup exceeds a certain limit (reports a corrupted hard disk). It can read the earlier backups again once the later backups have been deleted (i.e. when the total size goes down below that 'certain limit'). [Note: I have not carefully investigated this limit - but roughly my guess is that it lies around 160GB].

Faithful service for almost 5 years
Bought in late 2002 after using previous versions, this is still the most reliable and fastest version ever. From win 95, 98 to winXP SP2, its a workhorse and does it job flawlessly.
