MAKAI They thought hard (and have IMHO succeeded) to come up with an easy interface to a fairly powerful backup solution. Been using Retrospect for more than 10 years, and while memeo cannot automatically restore a backup target in any given state at any given time, I must say I never really needed this. What I needed the most was to go back to archived versions of specific files, and memeo does support that well enough. OK, as such memo is maybe not a tool for *system* backup and restoration, rather for user data. -- While memeo does not store all the backup files into a single file I have come to appreciate having direct Finder access to my backup data esp. since it did happen to me that I had to discard valuable backups created with some other backup software because their backup sets had developed internal issues and they never even bothered to come up with some automatic routine to check integrity of their backup sets. -- Speaking of automatic operations, execution of scheduled backups does not work with all backup applications under OS-X. Whereas memeo goes into action as soon as I connect the backup drive. Yes, I really think that's worth mentioning. -- Finally, I noticed no speed issues on my MB over FW400 compared to other backup solutions that I know. Specifically I notice no chance in computer performance when memeo goes about it work in the background. -- memeo is probably the type of solution to recommend when your wife or grandpa ask you whether the pictures on their computer are "safe".
