Preparing a backup operation is quite simple. All you have to do is choose what to back up and where, on the application's clean and simple user interface. You can choose one or more disks and you can either let the default destination, which is a cloud server or you can choose another destination, on one of your local disks.

Once the source and destination are established, you only need to click a button and the application will start backing up right away. It does take some time to complete a backup process, even on more powerful machines, but you may close the application and focus on other tasks in the meantime. The software lets you set up more than one backup job, which can be quite useful if you have multiple sets of data which you need to back up on a regular basis.

Besides selecting a source and a destination, the software lets you make a series of fine adjustments, on a drawer menu. You can set up file exclusions, choose another data center location and encrypt the backed up data. More important, the application comes with a scheduler. This means that you can set it to execute your backup jobs automatically, on a daily, weekly or monthly basis.
