THIS IS SPYWARE!

Pros
There are no pros.. unless getting a chance to practice your anger-management skills is a pro
Cons
As soon as I installed and ran this app it highjacked my browser and started opening window after window and would not close until I powered off my machine. Spybot then removed multiple pieces of adware it installed, but it jumped back up and installed intself again. I am still working on how to get this off my system. DO NOT INSTALL THIS.
Summary
Great program

Pros
Reliable. Faster if you don't use compression. Incremental backup.
Cons
Took awhile to figure out how to set up incremental backup.
Summary
looked good until it wouldn't write to my DVD

Pros
Nice interface, clear and simple
Cons
Took a long time to zip everything, didn't tell me it couldn't write to the DVD until it had gone through it all, offered no explanation or error analysis (the drive was working fine)
Summary
Very impressed by the range of features

Pros
I tried this out because I was looking for a program other than Windows Backup to reguarly backup my girlfriends accounts and data for her business. I'm really impressed by how much is offered, the backup function is dead easy to use, and the user interface is also really straightforward and easy on the eye. Also really liked the directory printer - it's really handy for keeping track of what's where on your PC. The DVD/CD burning utility is excellent. I'm still playing around with some of the other features, but it seems to be a great little program.
Cons
Can be a bit slow between menus and tasks - then again I'm only running it on a 600mhz/768mb RAM machine.
Summary
Liked it so much I purchased it after 2 days evaluating it

Pros
I use it to automate backing up my clients work to our remote FTP server. It creates a shortcut on my desktop, I simply double click it each time I'm ready to save my work and it connects to our website, compresses my important work into a password protected 256-bit encrypted zip file, prompts me for a comment of what has changed and then uploads a new version. When I need to retrieve a version, I simply use the built in Restore application, select the day and read my backup comment to make sure I'm restoring the correct version, hit next and then it automatically pulls down the backup and restores it. <p> <p>Very easy to use and very powerful. <p> <p>The Directory Printing Task is also proving useful, being able to include a nicely formatted html listing of every file in my project. Can modify it to sort by size, date modified etc.
Cons
Large file size could be a problem for others downloading on slow connections, but considering it is really 7 applications in one it is not so bad.
Summary
Easy to use

Pros
I really enjoy using this product. The tasks are so easy to setup. Once setup you can run them by clicking on the shortcut. <p> <p>I use it as my backup program, but also to burn CD's. <p> <p>I highly recommend this product!!!

Summary
Excellent product. Highly recommended.

Pros
IÃ¢Â€Â™m running Win XP Pro and the product has installed fine on my machine and I havenÃ¢Â€Â™t experienced the problems Ã¢Â€Â˜GumbopolisÃ¢Â€Â™ has had. I did have a question about how to use packet writing with the product so I contacted support and they got back to me with the answer (can be done) about an hour later which was great considering IÃ¢Â€Â™m in a different time zone. The feature list is also very impressive for the price, IÃ¢Â€Â™d definitely recommend trying it out
Cons
Summary
This just plain doesn't work.

I downloaded this as shareware. It was free for 15 days. The first time I launched it the GUI never appeared. Apparentlym it's not multi-threaded, because when I tried to launch it again I got an error that said the application was already running. I had to restart my computer to completely kill the instance. When I lanuched it this time, it told me the evaluation had expired. I had it on my computer all of 15 minutes. What a waste of time. This was such a poorly constructed application, that it forced me to write a review for the first time.
