subject: How to decide Your Kind of Backup Software [print this page] Losing a file is such a major problem for anybody, and if a few files are lost, then it is a major set back. So, what should be done by a person in such situations? Well, if the person has a backup, then he just needs to use that backup to recover his/her files, and then he/she can just get back to work. The problem is for those who backup their files manually. Generally in case of manual backup, they either forget to take backup, or intended to take backup, but data loss occurs before that. Due to the unavailability of backup, they have to face dire situations. That is why, to tackle such situations in advance, a user must always use a data backup software. These software take regular backups and ensure that one doesn't forget to take backups.
Taking backups is not a new concept any more, but there is just one problem that is common with many backup software. The interface is not user-friendly. And those that have an intuitive interface do not boast of read-only nature. That is why, it is not easy for a user to opt for a reliable software for this job. Infact, other problems that are faced by people looking for data backup tool, include that at times due to system crash, or similar problems, when the operating system is unable to load, it is not possible for a user to access the backup.
Also, not all software allows user to create customized backup options, like full backup, incremental backup and differential backup. This facilitates user's work, and absence of this forces the user to backup all the data everytime, which is a laborious task. There are a few software which offer customers these options, apart from choosing between taking daily, weekly, monthly backups automatically.
As an answer to all these problems, a reliable data backup software, Stellar Phoenix Instabackup Gold, has come up in the market. It gives the customer an option to create a rescue disk in case the OS doesn't load. This helps the customer retrieve data from the system.

Capable of taking backups on internal and external hard drives, CDs, DVDs, USBs, FTP Server, and network drive, this powerful tool functions on Windows XP and Vista.
