Why Use AISBackup? Benefit summary:
-
Back up as much or as little as you
want: AISBackup is capable of backing up everything e.g. backing up the Windows XP drive (C:), includes
the system files and security information that some other backup programs leave behind.
AISBackup can maintain the security of private
folders and encrypted files. Some backup solutions do not backup
private folders.
Alternatively, it is also possible to backup just one or two files,
the Registry on its own or synchronize your 'work in hand' with a
USB flash drive.
-
Backups up to any disk based media including CD's, DVD's
and flash drives:
Media spanning to named media is supported. Integrated and third
party CD and DVD support.
-
Schedule backups using the Microsoft Task Scheduler: No
extra background tasks just for AISBackup, using the Quick Job
option a backup of the C: drive could be scheduled to run at
midnight with just 8 clicks of the mouse, and no typing! A few more
clicks and you choose the time of backup.
-
Disk to disk cloning and synchronizing: Create a ready to go
backup of Windows to another disk drive: Tutorial
here.
Create a dual boot system - one for play (and possible virus and
ad-ware intrusion) and the other for work.
-
Very easily retrieves files from the backup to the original
or to another destination: Drag and drop lets you know exactly
where files are going to be restored. Restore a backup of Windows
'over the top' of the current running Windows, or to a new drive or
partition.
AISBackup knows where a backed up file is, so if it is on CD 36
AISBackup will ask for CD 36. Right click options lets you open a
file directly from the backup. Find files by name across the current
or all backup jobs.
When it comes to getting information back from the backup media many
backup solutions do not offer the kind of flexibility that AISBackup
does.
-
AISBackup can backup and restore Windows NT4, 2000 and 2003
Server's: Many system administrators may find this hard to
believe, but it makes AISBackup a low
cost HIGH value product. There are
messages on our forum from happy customers who now use AISBackup, in
place of, or to supplement their expensive server based backup
solution.
To be fair AISBackup does not support tape, but it does support
backup to large FireWire and USB drives which can be swapped for
on-site / off-site backups - the next backup session is based on the
contents of the connected drive.
-
All the usual and unusual stuff is there:
e.g. Optional Password Protection, Optional Test Backup, Backup to
FTP.
Backup to e-mail: backup some files to your web-mail account
- as long as your ISP will leave it there, you'll have an offsite
backup of important information.
-
Sophisticated Backup Management:
Differs from antiquated traditional backup methods while keeping
the benefits of tradition. see here
for more details.

System Requirements
The minimum PC specification we use for testing is a Pentium P166 MMX with
64MB RAM. This PC usually runs Windows 98 (first edition) but we also test
using Windows 95 (first edition) on this PC. However, first edition
Windows 95 does need some updating, which on established systems will have
already been done.
