Replacements

Listings that take over the same core job as Foxclone.

  • Rescuezilla

    A bootable disk imaging and cloning tool that is Clonezilla with a graphical interface people can actually use.

    FreeOpen sourceLinux

    Rescuezilla is a bootable graphical imaging and cloning tool whose images are interchangeable with Clonezilla's and that boots on any PC or Mac.

  • Clonezilla

    A bootable disk cloner that images a whole drive or partition, including systems it cannot understand.

    FreeOpen sourceLinux

    Clonezilla images whole drives with sector-copy fallback for unknown filesystems and a network deployment edition, but uses an unforgiving text menu.

  • Redo Rescue

    Create and restore disk images from a bootable rescue environment.

    FreeOpen sourceLinux

    Redo Rescue creates and restores disk images from a bootable rescue environment under GPL-3.0, similar in purpose to Foxclone.

  • qt-fsarchiver

    Graphical front-end for FSArchiver that backs up and restores Linux partitions.

    FreeOpen sourceLinux

    qt-fsarchiver is a graphical front end for FSArchiver that restores Linux partitions at filesystem level, so targets can differ in size, but its interface is dated.

  • FSArchiver

    Command-line archiver that saves and restores whole Linux filesystems.

    FreeOpen sourceLinuxCommand line

    FSArchiver saves whole Linux filesystems from the command line and can restore to a different size or filesystem type, but has no interface.

  • Partclone

    Back up and restore the used blocks of supported partitions.

    FreeOpen sourceLinux

    Partclone backs up only used blocks of supported partitions from the command line, and is lower level than Foxclone's graphical interface.

Also worth comparing

These listings name Foxclone as their own alternative, so the relationship runs both ways.

  • Relax-and-Recover

    A Linux bare-metal disaster recovery tool that creates bootable rescue media and ties into backup software.

    FreeOpen sourceLinuxCommand line

    Foxclone images and restores partitions and partition tables through a simple graphical interface from a Linux live environment, instead of command-line setup.
