Genie Backup Manager Home 8.0.364.534

CNET editors' review

Reviewed by: CNET Staff

Anybody who has ever lost work on a corrupted hard drive understands the importance of backing up data. Genie Backup Manager is a powerful utility that can help save both personal data and program settings, with enough features to satisfy professionals, but easy enough to use for novices. The software allows files to be stored on CD or DVD, or to be uploaded to a remote location via FTP. Archives can be compressed and password-protected, and back-up jobs can be scheduled for recurring, automatic performance. Plug-ins allow even inexperienced users to back up the Registry, Windows settings, and profiles of many popular utilities such as Firefox, Trillian, and Total Commander. Advanced users can create their own backup scripts. The interface can be a bit overwhelming, but a wizard helps guide users through the process. We would happily recommend the software both to data-storage newcomers and old hands.
