COMPLETE or so MANAGEABLE as HANDY BACKUP!

I have used other 5 or 6 backup programs, such as Nero Back-It-Up, Maxtor Retrospect or Genie Backup Manager, but none is so USER-FRIENDLY, so COMPLETE or so MANAGEABLE as HANDY BACKUP! Congratulations!

A great piece of software to save data to DVD

I would be happy to indorse your software for what it does and the little price it costs. I recommend it to every one when I work on their computer especially the ones that their hard drive failed. I ask them, "How important is your data? How much is the data worth if your hard drive fails again?"...

It is just what I was looking for

I have used the trial version and it is very easy and comfortable to use. It is just what I was looking for.


Henning

This program is very easy to use

This program is very easy to use.I like the fact that it uses standard zip compression that is not proprietary and that the backed up files can be opened up directly. Most backup programs are so convoluted that it is a pain trying to restore information from the backup file. Keep it simple for our customers!
