Easy2Boot vs SARDU MultiBoot Creator

Easy2Boot creates a multiboot USB drive for starting operating system installers, live systems and utilities. It runs on Linux and Windows, and the download includes three menu systems based on grub4dos, grubfm and Ventoy. Users add payloads by copying ISO, IMG and VHD files to the USB drive; listed payloads include Windows and Linux images, DOS programs and floppy images. For supported UEFI payloads, .imgPTN partition images can be used for Secure Boot. Easy2Boot can automate Windows installations with drivers, software, configuration, scripts and updates. Linux setup calls for an MBR partition layout and requires partition 4 to remain unused. The download guidance recommends a USB drive between 8GB and 2TB; larger drives may use 4K sectors or lack legacy boot support. Direct Secure UEFI32 booting to the agFM menu is not supported. The menu system uses open-source components and plain-text scripts, but the download also includes closed-source Windows utilities. Easy2Boot is free to use, but not for resale. Support options include a forum, live developer help, eBooks and online chat.

SARDU MultiBoot Creator builds bootable media for computer maintenance from a catalog of more than 300 ISO images, organized into Antivirus, Utility, Linux, and Windows categories. It can create a multiboot rescue disk on a USB flash drive or DVD, and its downloader can fetch selected images and build a USB drive in one step. The resulting media can support Windows installation, cloning, backup and restore, data recovery, password recovery or change, RAM testing, and hard disk checks. SARDU is portable: unzip the download and run it without installation. Version 6.1.0 is offered for Windows and 4.4.0 for GNU Linux. Free licenses are for personal, non-commercial use; PRO licenses permit commercial use. PRO includes BIOS Legacy and UEFI boot support, while free licenses do not include the stated PRO UEFI feature. Secure Boot must be disabled for the described Windows installation workflow. SARDU offers free plans and paid options from €11.90. Support is available through an FAQ and by email in Italian or English.
