Fine Soft Studio Backup Manager enables robust backup of files and ensures
that all your important data will be preserved.
Business Description
May be you don't care but your files are always in danger. Sudden lost of
data is very expensive. Files on which you spent days, weeks or months can
be lost in several seconds if you don't use reserve copying. This also may
happen when new files overwrite the old ones. It is enough to lost important
files one time in order to appreciate proper Backup Software usage.
In current days size of hard drives becomes very big (300 GB is standard),
chance to lose data - gets much bigger, effort to keep HDD from physical
or logical corruption is very high, for example time to run CheckDisk
or SmartDrive utilities for 300 Gb HDD is almost one night. Data can be
lost on account of HDD physical corruption, file system crash, virus
damage, user misapplication, accidental removal, etc. Another point is
version tracking. If your files are frequently changing or moving then you
need reliable tracking system.
We have investigated current backup management systems and no one satisfied
our needs. All of them lack functionality that we need.
So challenge was to develop backup manager that does all work concerned
with backup in flexible, adjustable, intelligent and simple way.
Solution and key benefits
We developed our own Backup Manager that complies with all our demands and
substantially exceeds functionality of other similar tools.
 |
Our Backup Manager works with multiple computers. It has simplified
user interface so it is easy to assign on which computer backup software should run
|
 |
Backup Manager allows you to flexibly control of what to backup. That
reduces the volume of backups, saves disk space and decreases backup
time. Load on file system, network and CPU is small
|
 |
Backup mode is incremental – it tracks different versions of a file |
 |
Backup Manager allows quick automatic or manual recovery |
 |
It is easy to integrate our Backup Manager with existing environment -
local net, SQL databases, updates notification system etc.)
|
Detailed features
Main features of Backup Manager developed by Fine Soft Studio are:
 |
It uses incremental backup mode. Stores latest copy of a file
and keeps history of file modification. You can see or compare file
history - when file have been updated, who has updated it and what have
been changed
|
 |
It archives backup files. But Backup Manager refreshes only archives for files in which some changes were made
|
 |
It works effectively. Work load on file system, network, CPU is small.
There are options to control work load
|
 |
No installation is required on client computers to be backuped |
 |
Server side components can be set on one server or multiple servers for
dynamic load balancing purposes
Setup is very easy - just copy few files and link scheduled task
|
 |
You can set what to backup and on which computers |
 |
"Files filter" - supports filter by masks, attributes, extensions. It is possible to set both - "Include" - include if match, and "Exclude" - exclude if match |
 |
Backup Manager is integrated with SQL database. DB structure is simple, so you can integrate with it.
It is easy using SQL console to:
- configure notifications based on important files changes
- automated file management - add info of what should be backed up, remove files or old versions
|
 |
Backup Archives have simple structure. It is easy to manually recover changes without use of special tools |
 |
Backup Archives & DB structure are fault resistant. Tool has no key component
which can cause full backup to crash, so if any backup file will fail only
info stored in it will be lost and no other files will be affected
|
 |
efficient work with files of different sizes:
- very small files with size less then 4 Kb
- big files - 10 Mb and more
- very big files - more then 2 Gb
|
 |
You can set to keep all archives or some dirs/files to use secure backups.
So even if somebody will get direct access to backups - he will not be
able to get any data from them
|
 |
Access to database records is under control by row level permissions – for example
you can configure access for confidential or financial files
|
 |
Supported backup of backup (BoB) with possibility to store copy of Backup
on another storage or remote network with efficient & secure changes
synchronization
|
 |
Backup Manager has administrative & user tools (through remote GUI or
configurable web-based interface), visual comparison of what was changed and when
|
 |
It tracks history of file copy/rename. For example - if file «a.txt»
has been renamed to "b.txt" or when file "b.txt" is new copy of file
"a.txt" Backup Manager detects this and properly tracks file history.
File move into other directory or even to another computer will be also
properly tracked
|
 |
You can restore selected files or directories on certain date from past
|
