**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 31, 2019

**What do you like best about Iperius Backup?**

Thanks A million times! GB 2B
The best thing about Iperius Backup is the ability to periodically back up data to keep data covered in organizations. I like having an FTP client to upload the files directly from the program. It also has storage in the cloud, something very important now for more protection. In addition, the software also produces a report of each security copy to its start date, end date and result, which allows carrying out an organization of work carried out.
Some of the Features which are useful: 
Creation of recovery disk with Iperius Recovery Environment®
Disk Image - Disaster Recovery (Vista, 7, 8, 10, 2008, 2012, 2016, 2019)
Open file backup (VSS)
Fast file copy to mass storage devices(Disk, NAS, RDX, USB, Network, etc ...)
Scheduling
Tape backup (DAT, LTO, USB, SAS, etc...)

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Hector P. | Soporte Técnico en Campo, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 18, 2019

**What do you like best about Iperius Backup?**

The best thing about Iperius Backup is the ability to periodically back up data to keep data covered in organizations. I like having an FTP client to upload the files directly from the program. It also has storage in the cloud, something very important now for more protection. In addition, the software also produces a report of each security copy to its start date, end date and result, which allows carrying out an organization of work carried out.

**What do you dislike about Iperius Backup?**

Iperius Backup covers all support for Windows, however, there is no client for Linux, which forces us to virtualize a Windows image on computers, making backup work more cumbersome and losing more time than assigned.

**Recommendations to others considering Iperius Backup:**

Iperius is a great backup solution. It has the best and most current method to keep your data safe. It has the ability to send your backup copies to services such as Google Drive, Dropbox or One Drive. You can also send backup copies via FTP and you can also create disk images. I recommend it.

**What problems is Iperius Backup solving and how is that benefiting you?**

This program allows us to send through its integration with Google Drive our periodically created backup copies, giving us more convenience and through 256-bit encryption much safer than traditional ones. It also allows us to send files through your FTP client to our servers.

  ### 12. Iperius backup, making backups

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Allison T. | IT Specialist, Information Technology and Services, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 02, 2018

**What do you like best about Iperius Backup?**

I think this program is very simple I Installed it on a server and client computer set your rules(which supports local back up and cloud). Ran it for over a year backing up a database and folders holding important files for a company I worked for and its still going with no issues as of now. 

**What do you dislike about Iperius Backup?**

What I dislike about how the program handles errors in notifications. Some files won't be able to back up or cannot copy. There needs to be a way that these files can be marked so that even when the backup went fine those files you expect to fail can be marked off so the back up shows no errors. This would make the notification more useful. 

**Recommendations to others considering Iperius Backup:**

For small to medium-sized company backup needs that can be on a server or even a client computer. Iperius Backup is the way to go. Especially if you do not have the staff or even contracted IT staff to monitor backups all that time. This product will keep you backed up and secure to know that its getting done.

**What problems is Iperius Backup solving and how is that benefiting you?**

What backup problems I solved with Iperius were backups that had complicated routes and backups that needed to be done on various times, locations and devices. Iperius lets you do this exact thing very well. Multiple routes and version comparison backups all done in the time frames I wanted. Hands down beats any included backup systems and beats out most other 3rd party clients like itself.
