    v2 is not so good compared to v1. This new version is featureless with a goofy skin. v1 was a bit buggy but usable, but look elsewhere if this is what it's turned into. It seems maybe it's supposed to be a front end for their online backup service or something - regardless, weak compared to its other free competitors.

    Wow, so this is what happened to Almer Backup ! Comodo bought it, tidied it up and re-released it for free.

    Well as Ive been using and unstable Almer Backup for years now, Im going to try this and see if it has been stabilised.

    This is pretty much as good as it gets with free backup software. If you hate Windows' NTBACKUP, then definitely try this.

    Nice freeware backup app. One feature I really like is that it can write a backup as a session to a CD-R - not just to CD-RW.

    It does what it says, plays nicely with AV and other security softwares and the support is excellent.

    Easy to use program does what it's meant to do and does it fairly well. The program is a little bloated compared to similar backup programs. I noticed that the help file alludes to 2 types of backup that compare files and then copy only the changed or new files when in fact all files are deleted first and then copied again. The former is certainly more efficient than the latter so I can't fathom why the latter was implemented.
