Handy Backup Reviews

I've used Handy Backup about three years starting with a free version and purchasing a license. It has not failed me. The think I like best is that the files can be stored in their native version for retrieval of a single file or just reassurance that critical files are being captured.

I have used Handy Backup for several years and the ease of use and intuitive wizard is very useful when creating backup sets.

I have used many backup products in my 40+ year IT career, and so far, my favorite is Handy Backup. I have been using Handy Backup for probably 20+ years (starting with version 5.0 or 6.0 I think...). The main thing you want in a backup solution is reliability and predictability. Handy Backup has NEVER once, not in all these years, ever failed, crashed, missed a scheduled backup, etc. We have multiple backups running every day - some full and some incremental, on thousands of files, and never had a glitch. In fact, Handy Backup is probably the only piece of software that I never have to think about or worry about. The setup process is quick and intuitive, and there are enough options to fit almost any use case, without being overwhelming. Easy to set up for any level of IT expertise. And for the price -- Handy Backup is filet mignon on a hot dog budget.

I have been using Handy Backup for over 12 years. I am kinda medium IT literate and have tens of thousands of files in different folders on different hard drives. The reason I like this software is it is simple to use and I love their incremental backup that is super quick. I have loads of different tasks some that back up daily or others weekly and monthly depending on how stressed I would be if I lost that data. Once you have set up the tasks you can pretty much forgot about as it will just do the taks when it can. I don't understand why this nifty bit of software doesn't have a higher market share. The other bonus is their support is very quick to repond if for example you have upgraded your PC and need the registration reset.

I bought this solution during the 1+1 promotion and am really happy that I managed to save some money! Buy during the discounts, they often have them! The program itself is the most convenient of all that I have seen, even my daughter can set it up.

A good backup solution looked somewhat antique in version 7 but is much more efficient and modern-looking in Handy Backup 8. For me, the crucial advantage is its capability to support business-level data plug-ins such as virtual machines, as well as many storage options, including those for online backup. I am using the Small Business edition for my workstation, and our institute utilizes the Server Network solution for multiple machine backup and recovery.

We use this software to work with MySQL databases. Set up very quickly, a quite simple GUI (I haven’t seen anything easier) I recommend!

I've been working with this software for about seven years and there was nothing to complain about... A very effective solution for those who like stability. The configuration is very intuitive, which is the reason I started using it in the first place. Helped in countless cases for all that time.
