On the positive side the program was easy to install, it didn't take long to back up and transfer the data using the remote drive method (do not use WI-FI transfer as this takes way too long). I moved about 600gb of data and it went relatively smoothly except that several programs were inoperable after the transfer
But I made 2 mistakes. First, because this program said it could be done via wireless, I opted for that, to save money. That was a mistake. It was really slow, and the recommendations for this issue were to move the laptops closer to the modem (which I hadn't done) and to have less devices using the modem while this process was happening.
In a home where my husband is also on his computer and phone and watching television, that is not practical.
So, I realized I needed the cord to connect the two laptops. But again, I made a mistake. I went for a cord my husband could pick up immediately at Best Buy. Wrong. That didn't work with the program -- it just left me trying to move things where I thought they should go -- and guess what? Even though I've been working professionally on computers and have had a series of computers for 30 years, this was surprisingly beyond me. So I bought the Laplink connector cable. THEN THE WORLD GOT SO MUCH BETTER.
If only I had understood how completely helpful the customer service at Laplink would be, I would have been able to complete the transfer in no time. First, no matter when I called, the phone was picked up immediately, and after my first call, whoever picked up the call had all my information and I never needed to explain anything. They were very well-informed, polite, spoke excellent English, and made sure I knew I should call back if I had any issues or questions. What they did NOT do was try to sell me stuff. They tried to help me accomplish what I needed without paying more. But when I did see that I was wasting so much valuable work time by not purchasing the official cable, I bought it, called Customer Service, and the gentleman who helped me made it happen in minutes.
I guess the only thing I would suggest to the company would be to package the cable with the program -- or make it even more clear in the product information that other cables don't do the work this cable does, and that a wireless transfer isn't very practical.
