CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET staff on January 05, 2009
The program provides standard functionality for backing up and synchronizing your data. Like many similar applications, Second Copy is based on profiles that store information about what files to back up, where and when to do so, and so on.
The program can back up 25 versions of the same file, handy for those users who routinely make a lot of changes. All you have to do to create a new profile is modify a similar one. You can group numerous profiles and run backups automatically in the background. For more advanced users, the program offers FTP support, command-line options, and macros.
Its otherwise handy and clear interface would gain from integrating dialog and option windows in the common shell, but what it really lacks is a tree view for profiles. However, Second Copy's functionality and price are adequate for both small-business and home users, especially those comfortable with technology.
Publisher's description
From Centered Systems :This major upgrade to Second Copy 97 adds many new features. Second Copy 2000 copies files and folders from one location to another on the same drive, another drive, or across the network. You can set up profiles that describe the source location, the destination location, and the frequency at which you want to copy the files. Second Copy monitors the source files for changes or additions, then automatically copies the new or changed files to their designated destinations. The program uses the familiar Windows Explorer interface. It has an easy-to-use setup profile wizard that makes configuration jobs a snap. Version 6.2.0.41 updated the supported operating systems.

Version: Second Copy 2000 6.2.0.41
Pros: Does what it says and is fairly easy to pick up. Despite what another reviewer has said, a simple look at their website shows that the product has not been abandoned for four years. You'd think you would look for updates or at least read the companies webpage before you made such a complaint, and especailly before you paid for a program.
Although there is still room for improvements, there is no reason to think they will not be made. It is at the top of the list when it comes to such utilities.
Cons: Nothing major. Although, they should change the name of the program here to Second Copy 7 or something...at least get rid of the "2000" part. : )
