I love this software because it is so easy to use. We use server imaging through one process, file backups through another process (scripts & cloud storage), and UrBackup for client computer image backups that can be restored within an hour or two. Of all my backup strategies, this one has been the most saving as I can usually just pop in another drive on the downed computer, boot off a cd or DVD connect to the server, then restore the computer from the last nightly backup - and it's free! There are also a lot of options for this application that is constantly being updated and added to by the developer, and it has lots of storage varieties that can be implemented. I have tried a few different ways of installing this application (OS's), but for us, the Windows servers seem to fit our needs best. Also, we are able to maintain Full & Incremental image backups on our schedule where it doesn't really interfere with our day-to-day work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about UrBackup? I can't really think of any cons, especially since it's free to use. If I had one suggestion, it would be to lay out more ideas on fine-tuning the procedures for the backup schemes. Upon starting, it can take quite a while to get all the initial images going and can chew up a lot of resources, but when that's done it works really nicely. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is UrBackup solving and how is that benefiting you? Security & ease of knowing that I can fully restore a client computer within about an hour or two, once there is an issue. The price is nice too! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It works so seamlessly with Google Docs and anyone with a Google account can use it. The GUI and user interface is straightforward and easy to use. The free version seemed to allot 15GB, then you could easily add extra space as needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about UrBackup? This might not be an issue for other users, but for myself it was. The fact that it only seems to work with NTFS formatted drives and volumes could be an issue with some admins and users. Could only get it to work on the primary drive as well. That was a bit frustrating. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is UrBackup solving and how is that benefiting you? Being able to share documents among coworkers, some documents seem to get easily deleted or misplaced..not with this, everything is documented and backed-up any time a file is moved, used or even viewed.

Best free Windows backup I've found. Only flaw is the restoring the server from backup is commandline and a pain (should know basic linux to do it). But, just get Acronis, etc on that machine and you can backup and restore your whole net--even multiple lans and it's bulletproof! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
