A very nice product, except for the fact that you have to manually add video files. This pretty much makes the program useless if you're looking for a backup of your picture/video collection.
At times it has been a lifesaver
I have used for a year and yes it has saved me twice.
The question arises:
Why spend this money vs. buying a large size USB drive.
Simple if the house burns down or is robbed, my data is still secure somewhere else - constantly.
Well worth the money.
Set and forget. Very easy to use. My only complaint is there are times when it freezes the system for a second with heavy I/O.
Pros: Looks silently in the background. Idiot proof!
Cons: Network drives and USB drives are not supported. Max size of a single file is 2GB, but no overall limit to total backup volume.
Overall: Excellent value for money. It's already saved my bacon a few times.
works in the background. easy. no limits on space.
