    Perfect Data Backup

    Date: Sep 10 2026

    Summary: I am completely satisfied; no complaints. Once you grasp the principle, using it is really simple and self-explanatory.

    Positive: It is very easy to set up, and the actual backup process—once everything is configured—takes practically just one mouse click. It is simply well designed. Restoring data is just as easy should a problem arise; that, too, is done with a single click. I have been using it for years and have never lost any data. This little program has saved the day for me many times. I would choose it again in a heartbeat, and I use it for both business and personal purposes.

    Negative: I can't think of anything negative. It is easy to set up, easy to use, and above all, very reliable.

    A truly very useful program for data backup.

    Date: Sep 06 2026

    Summary: A truly excellent program that offers great value for money. The software is continuously being developed, and regular updates are provided. Highly recommended.

    Positive: A truly very useful program for data backup. Once the desired backups have been set up as a task, you don't have to worry about anything else—everything happens automatically.

    Negative: The range of features for creating a backup job is truly extensive, and for—let's say—inexperienced users, it can be difficult to find their way around at first.

    Just Excellent

    Date: Sep 05 2026

    Summary: I've used this for daily and monthly backups for many, many, years. I also use Macrium for images, but BackUp Maker is my easy and reliable data backup.

    Positive: Easy to set up and runs reliably on any schedule that you want. I have used it daily for years and have had very few issues.

    Negative: You need to be very careful is you want to use the "Procedure before/after backup". feature. It requires some technical knowledge.

    The change to/from daylight savings time will force a full backup.

    Date: Sep 05 2026

    Summary: My overall experience with BackUp Maker has been excellent. I use it every day and trust it with my important files. It is a powerful and dependable backup program, and I would gladly recommend it to anyone looking for a flexible backup solution.

    My favourite backup software

    Date: Sep 05 2026

    Summary: I really like using this software because of how quickly a basic backup can be set up and that it's unobtrusive. I would like to see an option added to allow a backup to be skipped if there's nothing to back up.

    Positive: The use of standard ZIP format archives, the ease of use on the interface and that it works away in the background and doesn't interrupt you unless necessary.

    Negative: I have not been able to find an option to do nothing if no modified files are found because it generates an error report if there are no changed files when that can be a valid situation.

    Best Backup Program On The Market

    Date: Sep 04 2026

    Summary: Best and easiest backup program on the market. I like the ability to immediately just go to my file a manager, find the backed up file, and simply unzip it, without needing a special program to un-encrypt it.
    I like the way that it intuitively deletes the oldest backup to make room for the newest.

    Positive: Extreamly versatile and intuitive.
    We prefer non-encrypted backup, so if we mess up a file and need to retrieve a backup, it is as simple as going to the place that we backed it up and unzipping it..that's it.
    Very affordable.

    Negative: Step by step backup setup instructions would be a nice addition.
