Don't Waste Your Time or Money,
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Simple Backup 2.2 (CD-ROM)
Don't waste your time or money on this crummy little program. Here are some of its many shortcomings: 1. There are NO instructions, and NO HELP FILES, (your only recourse is to navigate the hard-to-use Veritas web site) 2. It does not remember what files you backed-up, so you have to go through the laborious process of selecting what files to back-up EACH TIME you use the program), 3. There is no way to back-up only those files that have recently changed (incremental); this makes it impractical to use as a daily backup. 4. You have no control over compression, 5. Technical Support at Veritas is pay-as-you-go. 6. There is no way to display what files you have backed-up. This program makes clunky old Microsoft Backup look like a jewel.

WARNING -,
By edward (Brooklyn, NY United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Simple Backup 2.2 (CD-ROM)
This product does NOT allow you to transfer the system back-up from one hard-drive to another (you will get an error message when you try).If you buy a Hewlett-Packard burner with this back-up software because you have to replace a bad hard-drive on a lap-top (as I did), you're in for a very unpleasant surprise. The manufacturer doesn't trumpet this limitation, and even the people over at HP tech seemed unaware of it. Brilliant. And, by the way the overall documentation provided by these people really is shameful, even by this industry's abysmal standards.

Simple, but easy.,
By Charles M. McGraw (Colorado Springs, Colorado United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Simple Backup 2.2 (CD-ROM)
I liked the way it installed on Windows ME. It seemed to put my files on the cd so it is easy to backup when needed.
