| If you are… | Best choice | Should you repack? | |-------------|-------------|--------------------| | A home user needing to undelete personal files | Free version → pay for Pro only if you hit the restore limit | No. Free is safe and nearly as good. | | A small biz IT worker recovering from a shared server | Recuva Business | No. The network recovery crack rarely works, and risking company data for $40 is foolish. | | A repair shop doing 20+ recoveries a month | Technician license | Absolutely not. Your reputation and client data security are worth the $400. One bad repack = lawsuit. | | A tinkerer testing on an offline VM | …fine, try a repack | Just know you’re rolling dice. The real Technician version is for liability protection, not speed. | This is the biggest functional difference
