Reviewed by: CNET Staff
This utility stands as a fine data-backup and synchronization solution. Since FileBack PC provides a number of features that let you control backup jobs in great detail, less experienced or casual users may opt to use the step-by-step wizard. System administrators will appreciate the ability to perform backups on remote machines and install the app on multiple computers at once. You can monitor progress via logs and e-mail notifications, and the program can maximize time and system resources by archiving only necessary files. For instance, it can keep a certain number of file versions or it can save all versions over a specified interval of time. You can even set FileBack PC to automatically launch an archive job every time you alter a file. Because of its advanced features and functionality, this program is more appropriate for professionals than for home users.Publisher's description

Version: FileBack PC 4 10-May-2006
Pros: Very feature rich.
Cons: Complex and counter-intuitive interface, unstable, poor support, expensive. This program used to be quite good, but the newer revisions have left it very unstable and the support is virtually non-existant.

Version: FileBack PC 4 10-May-2006
"Extensive features make this a must-have backup utility!"
Pros: I support many corporate networks and recommend this utility to all of my clients. It doesn't replace traditional tape-backup or image backup technologies, but rather supplements them with features and options that aren't matched by other backup programs. Use this program to backup your data files and folders, and an imaging program to backup your bootable partition. You can even use FileBack PC to manage image backup files that other programs create.
At a minimum give it a try. Nothing else compares.
Cons: User interface doesn't follow standard Windows conventions, extensive list of features can be overwhelming until you understand them.

Version: FileBack PC 4 10-May-2006
"Very powerful, but takes some getting used to."
Pros: FileBack PC is extremely powerful; it has a lot more features than the competition. It just works silently in the background, doing its job, requiring little user intervention.
Cons: Because of the large number of features, it can be a little intimidating to new users, but it is worth the effort to learn to use it.
