So far everything sounds very promising with Backup4all, let’s go and take a look!īackup4all Usability Different Versions of Backup4allīackup4all is available in 3 different versions, each of which is available at a different price point and providing more backup functionality the higher up the pricing scale you go. Now on version 8.9, it is clear that Softland have been continuously refining this product and as such we are offered the option of full, incremental, differential, mirror and smart backups methods when taking a backup, the smart options meaning the software will automatically analyse the backup set and choose the best method for us, excellent! One of the main things to note about Backup4all is that the backups themselves are very versatile and are making use of, amongst other technologies, ZIP file formats to ensure maximum compatibility and the ability to recover data without the software itself being installed. As a premium (paid for) application, Backup4all goes much further in its offerings than Fbackup does and provides users with multiple backup options, advanced encryption and compression options and the ability to backup to many different cloud storage providers amongst other things. Backup4all is a comprehensive piece of backup software from Softland, the same company behind the popular (and free) Fbackup software line.
