Features of Handy Backup Disaster Recovery

Handy Backup Disaster Recovery delivers an easy and reliable way to back up and restore your PC independently of its primary operating system.

Why You Need Handy Backup Disaster Recovery

A common problem for most PC backup software is that restoration of backups requires you to have a working computer. This means that even if you have a complete backup of a system drive, there is no way to restore it after failure, because you need a working OS to run the restore utility.

If you are looking for an all-included software that can also create a bootable system backup&recovery drive, then Handy Backup Disaster Recovery is right for you!

Handy Backup Disaster Recovery Highlights

• Windows-style interface. The program is built on Handy Backup Web Access and reconstructs intuitive window-based interface, where all objects and parameters are represented as folders and files:

• Complete computer backup. Handy Backup Disaster Recovery loads operating system from a recovery drive, and allows you to back up and restore your main HDD easily and smoothly, just as if it was a "cold" external device!
