Backup Servers and Workstations to FTP with Handy Backup software
Backing up to FTP is a wise choice for anyone who requires security and availability of their backups. FTP servers are located remotely and deliver the maximum protection of critical data from physical destruction or theft. That’s why the question of choosing the appropriate FTP backup software receives a lot of attention from computer users of all levels.
Handy Backup provides an effective and comprehensible way to configure automatic backup to remote FTP locations. The basic features regarding FTP backup with Handy Backup software are the following:
- Convenient FTP management interface. Handy Backup features a user-friendly interface which allows you to easily create and choose folders on the FTP server to store your backups. Authorization on the FTP server is achieved through the use of MD4/MD5 passwords which provide reliable protection of your login information
- Backup to FTP or to secure SFTP servers. Besides common FTP protocol Handy Backup supports backing up to SFTP servers which provide higher level of data transferring security. Read more about backup to SFTP…
- Easy configuration of FTP backup. Handy Backup features an advanced transfer engine which allows backing up data to FTP in cases when your computer is behind a proxy server (FTP or SOCKS5/SOCKS4). All you need to do is to specify the desired FTP or SFTP site name and your login data.
- FTP rebind function. This function synchronizes local information about the backup set with files on the FTP backup server. When you create a new task, independently of the presence of files on the remote server, the program will try to perform full backup. The FTP Rebind function allows performing incremental backup instead of the full one, and reduce execution time.
- A variety of backup options and scheduling. Handy Backup features numerous backup options which allow compressing your data with ZIP64, encrypting it with 128-bit blowfish algorithm, backup to FTP as Windows service, etc. Flexible scheduler allows repeating your FTP backup automatically, on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis, or within your own time period (including several times a day).
