We all know the importance of backing up your computer or major data files you don’t want to lose. I recently had an experience with my laptop that could have used the services that Backup Platinum provides. Let me give you a little description of what Backup Platinum is:
Now, if most of those points went over your head as it did mine when I first read the description, take a few minutes and visit their website Backup to DVD. The first thing you will notice is the usability of the website. Along the top tool bar, you will see Home, Download, Order, White Papers, Builds History, Help and SoftLogica options to choose from.
Things I like most about the website and services:
Because you can test drive this service before actually purchasing it, I would encourage anyone looking for a backup service to do so.

I’m a control freak personally, I never use those software type of backups because I don’t trust them very much.
Besides, I’m the kind of guy that knows exactly where all my files are, and I havea standard procedure for backing things up to my 250GB external harddrive.
Tips on successful file management :
1. Put all your work/business related files into “My Documents”. Do not scatter them outside. Same applies to music, videos, photos - keep them where they should be.
2. Keep a note that software settings (such as Illustrator pallette, or filetype settings that are customized for you) can be transferred via the Windows Files and Settings Transfer wizard. Use that and save just all application settings.
3. As for Outlook, you can simply copy the entire Microsoft Outlook data file, which contains all your mail account, calendar, contact, memo, task related infos as well as all emails/attachments. No need to export/import anything, just copy the whole damn datafile. Outlook.pst is the usual name, and if you have lots of data you may see archive.pst as well.
Good points, Jeff.
I have my own application (written by me in C#.NET) which takes care of all the files I need to backup.. I wonder if I need to start selling it?
Yeh I agree with Jeff’s points they definatly help in keeping organized.
I just started using Paragon Backup software. I am not sure if it can restore mt operating system, and its settings.
rest, I managed to backup, delete and restore using paragon backup.
Any other software which can help me to back up my entire OS, and restore it in blazing fast speed.
wonder how to run the back-up data service nowadays !?
only hundreds dollars can buy a dvd rom for your computers….
Thanks for the tips, Jeff,
But I think it all goes ok when you want to backup to dvd only — what about making backups to avoid disasters? I think Backup Platinum can be quite cool with its online backup availability (which is not written here, I dunno why).
