Publisher's description of PowerISO 4.2
PowerISO is a powerful CD/DVD image file processing tool, which allows you to open, extract, create, edit, burn, compress, encrypt, split and convert ISO files, and mount these files with internal virtual drive. It can process almost all CD-ROM image files including ISO and BIN. PowerISO can be used easily, which support shell integration, context menu, drag and drop, clipboard copy paste. Version 4.2 includes some minor bug fixes and improvements.

4.0 stars
- "PowerISO definitely has got power"
This muscular disc-imaging utility is not kidding around (though we thought the demo might be). PowerISO lets you mount virtual drives, create bootable discs, and generate CD and floppy images. It supports a huge number of image formats, including standard ISO and IMG files as well as files created by almost all popular disc-burning programs such as Nero, CloneCD, and Alcohol120%.
Our one major caveat is that the trial version doesn't let you create images larger than 300MB (most CDs hold 700MB), making it much harder to fully test the product. On the other hand, the trial period is unlimited, so some users may actually prefer this arrangement. Trial restrictions aside, we think PowerISO makes a good pick for intermediate to advanced users.

"An excellent tool for the advanced user."
Pros: UI is clean, and simple, making it easy to learn and use. I like the ability to mount a virtual drive with the contents of an image available to peruse. PowerISO makes it easy for me to update my utility disks, very easily.
Cons: The only con is VERY minor. During the evaluation period, it limits image creation to images less than 300MB in size. However, this disappears in the registered version.
Summary: If you need to create images from a group of files on your HD, you really should consider this tool. It opens, reads, mounts, displays, creates, and burns CD/DVD images in many formats. It also allows one to read an image in one format, and write i... read more >>
