I like the fact that they literally take an exact bootable partition
snapshot of your drive. Time machine basically only backs up your files and
your applications/settings. It doesn't literally make a completely bootable
image. there are some things Time machine simply will not easily backup.
Plus, it's less tedious using one of these apps, as with Time Machine, you
have to reinstall the OS, then! take a second step after that to then copy
all your stuff back over. With Time Machine, you boot to the backup
partition, then you just reimage it back over to the partition volume which
is corrupted, and all in one step, within about an hour or 2 at absolute
most normally, you're back up and running in business.
To me, it's just way way more seemless.

What advantages do these pieces of software have over Apple’s built in Time
Machine? Just wondering.

Don't you just love imaging software? I prefer Superduper frankly over

times OS images have saved my ass! So for anyone who has neither of these
two solutions, I'd highly! highly highly! recommend investing in one or
the other, if not both.

Hi, Ok last night after my bad experience with OSX 10.11, I formatted
my drive and re-installed Yosemite. I used my carbon copy cloaner
drive to copy everything back to my blank drive. It all went smoothly!
I'm only missing one thing, will have to redownload it.
I tried going into recovery mode and re-installing from there but
instead of offering me Lion, like it always did, it went right back to
El Capitan. So, I guess I'll wait for a few updates before taking the
plunge again.
Jeff
