I find this software to be very useful. I use it everyday to perform backups on multiple/sensitive locations. However I must say that it lacks, nowadays, SCP support. I administer a few linux servers aswell and I'd like to perform backups on those servers too with this software. Author: if you find a way to do this, rest assured your software will be the best!

To clarify: Version 8 was open source, but Version 9 is NOT open source. It's still free, however, and with support for Volume Shadow Copies and 7z compression, I now feel Cobian Backup is the clear winner for file-based backups, beating commercial products like Genie Backup as well as open source projects like Abakt. Cobian is especially handy on Vista where Microsoft left out ntbackup in favor of an ultra-dumbed-down, MacOS-like backup.

Excellent! Even this beta works like a charm and handles mac fonts and files on a win2003 server without any problems. That's not common for other tools like this. I'm glad about this piece.

Version 8 put Cobian over the top. It's been the world's best Freeware backup program for some time, but the new GUI made it much more usable. It actually rivals Second Copy, which is the best of the best, free or commercial. Nothing is even close to Cobian and SC. Other backup programs don't do compression, excludes, masks, etc. The only thing I wish for is an easier way to exclude folders. Thank you Luis!

Adequate to the task, but, strangely enough, SimpleTech's StorageSync is the best I've tried. If you're running a server the mirror file idea is a good one.
