There is one simple reason why anyone would like to backup their data: should anything go wrong, you have a backup and you won't not lose your data. There are numerous things that could go wrong: aomeone could delete your data by accident, there could be a hardware failure that causes your data to be lost, or malware could compromise your computer and attack your data.

I think you get the idea why backing up your data is a big deal. Perhaps Director of Technical Education with ESET, Randy Abrams says it best: “if your data is important enough to put on a hard drive, be sure you back it up.”

If you want to back up your data, you could give the Novosoft-developed Handy Backup application a try. This easy to use application will automatically backup your data so you do not lose anything important. It can backup data to any type of storage media - hard or network drive, DVD, CD-R/W, FTP and SFTP, LAN and even a USB stick.

If I were to pick two adjectives to describe this application, those words would be “powerful” and “easy to use”. The application is powerful because it provides all the tools you need to keep your data safe – database backup, image backup, intuitive user interface, support for a long list of storage devices, flexible scheduler, free plugins for registry backup, Automatic backup encryption and compression. The application is easy to use because even the novice computer user will be able to pick up the basics in no time at all.

There are 3 Handy Backup versions available for download: Handy Backup Standard, Handy Backup Pro, and Handy Backup Server.

Handy Backup Standard is meant for homes and small offices; you can use it to backup all the applications on your system and all your important data.

Handy Backup Pro is meant for the small and medium business. Alongside the functionality provided by Handy Backup Standard, the Pro version comes with image backup, SFTP server backup, and database backup. The functionality the Pro version offers can be increased by using plugins.

Handy Backup Server is meant to be a corporate backup solution for Windows-based networks. This version features multiple server-specific functions.

Handy Backup, be it the Standard or Pro version, is a properly good, easy to use data backup solution that you should definitely try.
