Backup Plus is a specialized system software designed for document backup, helping users perform backups more efficiently to ensure data security. The software supports backup not only on hard drives but also on optical media such as CDs. It features compatibility with UDF data writing software like DirectCD or InCD, allowing backups to various removable media including floppy disks, ZIP drives, Jaz drives, USB flash drives, network drives, and CD/DVD media. It even allows for preformatted CD/DVDs to be repurposed for backup. This version also supports FTP-style backups.
Professional users can backup directly to CD and DVD media without needing to reformat discs or additional data writing software. Backup Plus DVD Edition is tailored specifically for CD and DVD backups and is ideal for users who prefer not to use data writing software. For those who need to backup to various media types, including FTP backups, the standard Backup Plus version is more suitable.
You can create multiple backup sets based on your needs, ensuring network data security. The embedded guide helps you set up your first backup plan step by step. The Timed Backups Manager included allows for automated backups, fully configurable, including naming backups based on system date and time, backup logging, and support for password protection and email notifications for each backup set.
You can include individual files, detailed folder names, and even use wildcards to specify files to exclude, such as system folders like My Documents, Favorites, Internet Cookies, and Start Menu items. The Task Manager, along with the included Restore Manager, makes it easy to restore individual files from detailed backups.
