Description
FileBack PC is a file-backup utility that offers multiple backup revision as well as synchronization capabilities. You can use it to track up to 999 versions of any number of files, or to keep folders perfectly synchronized. Configurable options include backup compression and encryption, instantaneous backups of changed files, wizard-based file restoration, wizard-based or automatic configuration, remote administration, and backup-file cleanup options.
Version 4.1 adds a new file selector, improves background file operations, and offers a few bug fixes.
Review
This utility stands as a fine data-backup and synchronization solution. Since FileBack PC provides a number of features that let you control backup jobs in great detail, less experienced or casual users may opt to use the step-by-step wizard. System administrators will appreciate the ability to perform backups on remote machines and install the app on multiple computers at once. You can monitor progress via logs and e-mail notifications, and the program can maximize time and system resources by archiving only necessary files. For instance, it can keep a certain number of file versions or it can save all versions over a specified interval of time. You can even set FileBack PC to automatically launch an archive job every time you alter a file. Because of its advanced features and functionality, this program is more appropriate for professionals than for home users.
