DESCRIPTION
Get Backup is a backup software utility. This program is a simple and efficient tool for creating personal backups, suitable for both beginners and pros. In addition to file backup capabilities, Get Backup works as a synchronization tool allowing to coincide files and folders from one disk location to another. This helps to have files in-sync and up-to-date on both your desktop and laptop computers.

Quick video tour of Get Backup available.

Get Backup is flexible enough: you can reduce the backup archive size using compression tools, restore it on any computer as it utilizes tar technology, much more.

The customizable scheduling tool allows to fully automate the backup process, so that backups are built on a regular basis (daily, weekly or monthly). You can specify the backup start time up to a minute. You can create separate schedules for different backup projects.

The program allows to save backups to any locally mounted device/drive, including FireWire, USB, ATA, SCSI, CD and DVD devices, or network volumes. As well as burn your backups to Blu-ray discs, CD/DVD through Roxio Toast Titanium.

Diverse Backup Methods:
  • Full - all selected files are saved, and the resulting archive replaces the previously created one.
  • Versioned - all selected files are saved in a new backup archive, and the previous archives remain intact.
  • Incremental - each time a backup is built, only the files that were changed are saved in the new backup archive.

    MONDELE  Well, I may regret writing this review this early, but I think it's valid. I'm glad BeLight gives me a 30 day trial of this software, because I'm beginning to think it will take that long to perform the first backup.

    Because of my particular backup needs and bad experiences, I am not, at this point, using the actual "backup feature". Rather, I am trying to synchronize a Firewire-attached hard disk drive with my internal SATA drive. Admitting that the external drive is roughly 280 GB it seems unhelpful that the process has taken 24 hours to move 1/4 of the way. Mind you, this is a synchronization where there was nothing in the target, so a simple copy was all that was necessary.

    On the plus side, the program hasn't crashed, which I can't say about SilverKeeper.

    Unless subsequent copies are considerably faster, however, the slowness (speed seems an inappropriate qualifier) of this program makes it all but useless.
