Editor's review
Disk image, zip backup, copy and synchronization in a single software. Backup and synchronize any kind of digital data among multiple PCs and can create perfect image of your system. Multiple tools help the user to take control over backup tasks.
Features: Backup2009 Pro is a backup program for Windows. It can create disk or partition image. This includes the Windows file system or back up data in zip file format. You can even copy and synchronize files between machines. The utility is able to copy or back up files even if they are in use by programs through the Windows virtual shadow copy scripts. For redundancy the back up destination can be two different files if it is being done locally or can be FTP`ed to two different servers in case the primary destination is busy or inaccessible for any reason. Sophisticated scheduling features are built in.
The interface lets you handle/manage things systematically. The Agenda button provides a concise view of all back up tasks scheduled for the day. The history is also available from the Windows explorer and a lot of functions such as disk clean-up, file burner, standard profile, creating bootable medium, clone disks etc. Geography provides a button that brings up what is backed up and where. The catalog is a catalog of all backed up elements. Explorer like interface of the application provides access to script details, log files, catalogs, history and the back up files of course. The back up files can be compressed with more than one compression methods. They can also be encrypted by AES 256 for security. Scripts can be grouped in a metascript that may contain a mix of back up and synchronizing tasks. These metascripts also can be scheduled as the normal scripts. Email alerts are available for alerting you about back up events.
Overall: Quite a sophisticated back up and synchronization solution. Quite easy to use too.
