    "This program is a top coat for Time Machine. Must have."

    November 28, 2009  |   By sbstrum

    Pros

    I want to see all my backups at one time, not one date at a time as with Time Machine (TM). I also want to see my folders and files in a Finder format with a large window, not the small space-ship window view of TM. Back-in Time does this and more.

    Cons

    The user manual has to be rewritten to clearly teach the user how to get the most out of this key app. A step by step manual with appropriate illustrations should be a piece of cake to write. Other than that, I find little to complain about.

    Summary

    For me this application should be picked up by Apple and installed as a default program with every Mac. It elevates Time Machine to an incredibly useful tool.
