AOMEI Partition Assistant review
A Windows-focused partition manager with a free edition and lifetime paid options.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
AOMEI Partition Assistant is disk partition management software for Windows PCs and servers. It is designed for personal users, home users, and organizations managing HDDs, SSDs, removable drives, and RAID configurations. Its feature set covers creating, deleting, formatting, resizing, moving, merging, splitting, cloning, and recovering partitions, alongside Windows OS migration and MBR/GPT conversion.
The published plans provide a free Standard edition for personal and home use, with basic partition management, disk and partition cloning, MBR/GPT conversion, and bootable-media creation. Professional Yearly costs $49.95 per license annually and adds one license for 2 PCs, Windows partition management, OS migration, and partition resizing, moving, merging, and splitting. Professional Lifetime costs $59.95 per license and includes one license for 2 PCs, lifetime upgrades, Windows partition management, OS migration, and disk cloning. Family Lifetime costs $89.95 per license for 5 PCs, with lifetime upgrades and Windows partition management.
AOMEI’s strongest fit is users who want a wide set of storage-management operations in one Windows application rather than a tool focused on a single task. It can allocate free space between partitions, wipe disks and partitions, recover lost or deleted partitions, and create Windows PE bootable USB, CD/DVD, or ISO media. Filesystem coverage includes NTFS, FAT16, FAT32, ReFS, Ext2/3, and ExFAT. Choose it if Windows support, cloning, migration, recovery, and bootable media are priorities. Look elsewhere if you need a non-Windows product or want advanced capabilities included in the free edition.
