Features:
NTI Backup Now Deluxe is a powerful backup application with useful features, including the ability to save backups with DVD drives and save data to multiple drives. As such, Backup Now deserves your attention, especially with its free-for-life technical support. Not that the software is perfect. But while Backup Now wont back up to FTP sites and makes storing files to a local area network (LAN) difficult, the softwares strong and easy interface offsets these shortcomings. Unlike rollback utilities, such as Roxio GoBack, which can restore your system only to a previous state, Backup Now is more versatile, backing up or restoring specific files or whole drive volumes. At $79.95, this application is expensive, but its worth the convenience and features. Those on a budget might prefer the $30 Handy Backup, although it lacks versatility. In our tests, Backup Now Deluxe installed without incident and unlike Handy Backup, worked immediately with our drives: a 16X/10X/40X CD-R/RW and an 8X/4X/24X CD-R/RW drive. The software works only on PCs running Windows 95, 98, Me, NT, 2000, and XP, and it is designed for local backups rather than backups across the Internet.
