Version: 11.16
Very elegant application, works exactly as it says. This is just and only for folders, for very simple backups. Out of all similar applications I like this one the most. For large folders backups I use ChronoSync and CCC. I also have SuperDuper, but it's too confusing.

Starting with v. 10.25, you must give them a credit card and set up an account to download the app!
GOODBYE, JERKS.
