EaseUS Partition Master Best for: People who want one paid licence for two PCs with a rollback safeguard. EaseUS Partition Master suits people who want a free tool for basic resizing and a paid licence for OS migration, cloning and recovery. Pro is $49.95 a year or $69.95 once, for 2 PCs. A named rollback feature protects partition changes. The catch: the free edition lacks OS migration, disk copy and partition recovery, and monthly prices differ between pages. ## 2. AOMEI Partition Assistant Best for: People who want a long refund window and a one-time licence for 2 PCs. AOMEI Partition Assistant suits people who want a free edition that resizes, moves and merges partitions, or a paid one with a 90-day refund window. Professional is $49.95 a year or $69.95 once. The catch: no page names a rollback for interrupted operations, and the help page for allocating free space does not say whether partitions must be adjacent. ## 3. 4DDiG Partition Manager Best for: People who want one paid tool for resizing, migrating and converting disks. 4DDiG Partition Manager covers most partition jobs: resize, merge, split, FAT32 to NTFS, MBR to GPT, OS migration, cloning and partition recovery. A year for one PC is $40.95 and a lifetime licence is $59.95, with a 30-day refund window. The catch: the vendor names no protection for interrupted operations, and merging works only on adjacent partitions. ## 4. NIUBI Partition Editor Best for: People who want a low one-time price and a rollback feature. NIUBI suits people who want one payment of $39 for two PCs, plus rollback if an operation is interrupted. The Free edition covers resize, move, merge and MBR to GPT conversion for home use. The catch: pages do not list splitting, FAT32 to NTFS conversion or partition recovery, and Free has no rollback or boot media builder. ## 5. IM-Magic Partition Resizer Best for: Home users who want free resizing, OS migration and disk cloning. IM-Magic suits home users who want resize, move, merge, OS migration and disk cloning without paying. Pro adds boot media for $29.99 on two PCs on the buy page. The catch: pages show different Pro prices, and name no split, partition recovery or FAT32 to NTFS feature. ## 6. DiskGenius Best for: People who want a free edition that covers resizing, GPT conversion and moving Windows. DiskGenius suits people who want a free edition that already handles resizing, splitting, GPT conversion and Windows migration. Paid editions add lost-partition recovery that can save the partition table. The catch: the cheapest year costs $99.90, the refund is conditional, and its pages do not list merging two partitions or FAT32-to-NTFS conversion. ## 7. MiniTool Partition Wizard Best for: People who need a free tool for resizing and a paid one for OS migration. MiniTool Partition Wizard suits people who want a free edition for everyday resizing and a paid one for OS migration and cloning. Pro is $59 a year for one PC. The catch: the only lifetime licence covers 5 PCs at $159, partition recovery is listed only for editions that cover 3 or 5 PCs, and no page names a rollback feature for interrupted operations. ## 8. Macrorit Partition Expert Best for: People who want a low-priced paid edition with roll-back protection. Macrorit suits people who want a low-priced paid edition with boot media and roll-back protection, and a free edition for home use. Partition Expert migrates the OS and clones disks, and the free edition converts MBR to GPT. The catch: the vendor's pages do not say merge works in the individual editions, and name no split feature. ## 9. Parted Magic Best for: Technicians and home users who want a rescue stick that boots 64-bit x86 PCs. Parted Magic suits people who want a bootable toolkit that resizes, moves, clones and recovers partitions on 64-bit x86 PCs. The Single Version costs $19 once and the journal resumes interrupted work. The catch: the vendor's pages do not describe merge, split or FAT32-to-NTFS conversion, and the refund window is 14 days at most. ## 10. BootIt Bare Metal Best for: Multi-boot users who want one tool for boot menus, partitioning and imaging. BootIt Bare Metal suits people who want a boot manager with partitioning, imaging and cloning in one tool, installed from its own boot media. The $39.95 Collection licence covers up to five household systems. The catch: all sales are final, and the vendor's pages do not describe merge, split or FAT32-to-NTFS conversion. ## 11. GParted Best for: People who want a free, open-source resizer and can boot from a USB stick. GParted suits people comfortable booting a Linux live image who want a free resizer for NTFS, FAT32 and ext4. Its code is public and nothing is sold. The catch: its pages list no merge, no whole-disk clone, no Windows migration and no MBR-to-GPT conversion, and it is not a Windows app. ## 12. Windows Disk Management Best for: People who only need to shrink a drive or add space next to it. Disk Management suits people who need a quick shrink or extend on an NTFS drive and want nothing to install. It is built into Windows 10 and 11, and Microsoft's page lists no separate price. The catch: it cannot move space past a neighbouring volume or convert MBR to GPT without deleting volumes, and Microsoft's task list names no cloning or recovery.
