I've been looking for a simple backup so I'm interested - did a search for a review and found version 3 was on GAOTD a year ago and it got looked over by ghacks (http://www.ghacks.net/2010/02/04/ocster-backup-pro-3-review/):

Positive

    * Easy to use thanks to wizards guiding the user
    * Preset folders and file types that can be selected
    * Reporting and logs
    * Incremental backups supported (automatically)

Negative

    * Proprietary compression formats, restore only possible with the backup software
    * No file inclusion filters
    * Insufficient scheduling options
    * No remote backups
    * No recovery CD

"Proprietary compression formats" :down:  :(

eh... hmm..., tomos... You had the energy to go and read an old article on ghacks, but not to read about the new version on the program's linked homepage?!!

Includes alternative backup format: 1 : 1 File Copy
- simple mirroring of files to other media

Ah, the innovative 1:1 file copy in version 6. ;)

Just kidding, the program looks good. Lots of features including versioning.

Curt, thanks for telling. :up:
