Full Backup
Full backup assumes that each time you execute a backup task, the software processes the entire set of data, giving no regard to the files that you already backed up. This is the most straightforward and resource-consuming type of backup, as the amount of data copied during each session is not reduced by any means. Any data retention scheme starts with full backup and uses it as a basis for further incremental backups or differential backups.
Handy Backup can perform full backup of the following types of data:
- Files-based backup. With Handy Backup you can back up files through common file system-based requests, with options of backup filtering and incremental backup.
- Disk image-based backup. The utility allows creating a full system backup through creation of a drive-based backup (HDD snapshot). Note: You can only create image backup of a drive which has no applications running on it (including operating system). To back up OS, you need to boot from a different drive.
- Database backup. Handy Backup has a number of plug-ins intended for hot backup and recovery of different databases. These include plug-ins for full MS SQL backup, as well as full backup of ODBC databases tables (without stored procedures and other control data), Lotus Notes backup, DB2 data server backup and Exchange Server backup.

Full Backup and Restore
Regardless of the type of data you selected for your backup task, Handy Backup has a variety of options that can be applied to it:
- Backup scheduling. Handy Backup's scheduler allows you to completely automate backups and have them performed on a given schedule, not requiring any attention.
- Supported backup storage. Our backup utility can burn your backup to CD or store backup to DVD discs. It can copy backup to FTP server, place backup to network folder, store backup on external drive, or any other drive accessible by Windows OS.
- Restoring backups. Data restoration can be done very quickly and easily, and can be targeted to a different place than original. In case of a drive-based backup, this can be used for the purpose of hard disk cloning.
