Backup4All Professional - Bits Du Jour - 6-29-2009
« on: June 23, 2009, 10:13 AM »
Hi Folks,

Backup4All
http://www.bitsdujour.com/software/backupforall/

A nice program, in some ways the nicest of the standard file-by-file backups, this is the new release so current license holders of Ver 3 (versions seem to last some years) will compare an upgrade price to this special to staying at 3.  Freeware alternatives include Syncback and Cobian and one from the Backup4all people called FBackup (understandably they do these as distinct products) . FBackup has a forum, and Backup4All indicated that they want to that route in the future.

Technical and support and comparison discussions welcome, just noticed this coming down the pike.

Shalom,
Steven

I've been using Backup4All lately and am quite pleased with it.

Upgrading from v3 to v4 (professional) is $20 so still cheaper than buying a new discounted license via bdj (but a good deal for new users).
Anyway, in about one month we'll release version 4.2 which will be a free upgrade for 4.x owners (including those that purchase via bdj), the main change in this new version being the fact that Backup4all is unicode.
