Almost any PC user comes across the problem of storing important information, such as business correspondence, contracts, economic calculations, accounting databases, report forms. Only few spend enough time on backing up their data even despite the fact that according to the analysts' assessments the most important data in companies is stored on the hard disks of desktop computers.

We think that everyone working with the computer at least once have faced the loss of important data. There can be a lot of reasons for that: the physical deterioration of media, viruses, inexperienced users' actions, power failures, etc.

The most reliable method of protecting oneself against such cases, errors, viruses and hackers' attacks is to use backup systems! Backups are particularly used to store information on external media making it possible to recover it in case of a breakdown or failure!

You can back up your data manually at regular intervals, say, once a month. But the human factor brings its own surprises - PC users either have no time to back up their data or just forget about it.

It may result in vital data being permanently lost! It is much safer to makes backups automatically. To automate the backup process and to make it easier, our company developed the automatic backup system Backup Deluxe 2005.

Backup Deluxe 2005 automates all traditional backup management tasks. It cuts down operational expenses, reduces the probability of errors and allows administrators to easily implement customized data protection schemes. The program simplifies and automates the process of backing up important information, such as accounting databases, e-mail, documents, graphic files and databases independent of their type, size and location. The program has a lot of settings, which makes it really customizable and allows it to be used for any archiving purposes.

The excellent intuitive interface of the program will allow not only system administrators and computer guru, but also people using the computer in their everyday work not connected with information technology, but who are also concerned with the safety of their data to configure making backups of their data.

Backup Deluxe 2005 will not only allow you to save your data to a local or network resource, an FTP server or a CD/DVD, but also protect your backup copies from other users with the help of modern data encryption technologies. The powerful built-in archiving system will allow you to considerably reduce the size of your backups and save space needed to store them. Backup Deluxe 2005 agent can be started as a service under Windows NT/2000/XP/2003 Server making it possible to create backups invisibly to the PC user.
