Compare Encryptability with USBCrypt

Both Encryptability and USBCrypt are encryption products that are used to create and manage Virtual Encrypted Disks. Both of these products allow you to create Virtual Encrypted Disks on both the internal and external storage devices, and access the encrypted files via the virtual drive letters, just like the real drives. They both use the same encryption methods and algorithms, and offer the same strength and protection against unauthorized access to the encrypted files and folders.

They differ, however, in the ways they handle the Virtual Encrypted Disks: Encryptability was designed to better handle the Virtual Encrypted Disks on the stationary storage, such as non-removable hard drives, while USBCrypt is better suited for handling encryption of the removable drives.

Here are some of the specific differences you may want to consider when deciding which product, Encryptability or USBCrypt to use in each situation.

When you encrypt a removable drive with USBCrypt, it adds a portable version its own software to the drive, to allow you to use the encrypted drive on the computers that do not have USBCrypt software installed on them. (The administrator approval is still required, though.) Encryptability does not add software to the removable drives, so they could be used only with the computers that already have Encryptability software installed.
USBCrypt only supports one Virtual Encrypted Disk per each physical host drive, while Encryptability allows you to create any number of Virtual Encrypted Disks on the same physical storage device, as long as you choose to keep them in separate folders.
When encrypting a removable drive, USBCrypt checks the NTFS permissions of the host drive. If such permissions pevent the use of the drive with other computers, USBCrypt offers to correct the situation, while Encryptability does not check for such a condition.
Encryptability supports creating Virtual Encrypted Disk hosted on the shared folders located on other computers connected to your network, while USBCrypt does not support encrypting the network drives.
USBCrypt displays a separate taskbar notification icon for each encrypted drive, while Encryptability displays only one such icon, that combines the menus for all available Virtual Encrypted Disks.

You can use both Encryptability and USBCrypt on the same computer, but keep in mind that each Virtual Encrypted Disk can be controlled by only one product as the same time. (You can convert the Virtual Encrypted Disks from the USBCrypt format to Encryptability and back.)

Or, you can choose only one of the products, Encryptability or USBCrypt, that matches the way you work. If you are not sure which one to choose, you are welcome to try them before purchasing: each product comes with a built-in license for a free 30-day evaluation use.
