It’s completely automatic. In fact, you may even forget it’s working. Most businesses put their lives on the line every night and don’t realize it. With businesses depending more and more on the data stored in their computers, proper backups are becoming much more critical.

EPNETBackup accomplishes several essential steps that are often overlooked or done improperly by other backup software - especially in the regular non-automated backup systems.

Backups are done on schedule, reliably. Most businesses don’t do this. For one reason or another, they don’t keep a regular backup regimen. Usually it’s because the person responsible for doing backups (if there is one) is too busy doing something else, or someone is using the computer when it’s time for a backup, or they simply forget. Since EPNETBackups are done with automated software usually at night, when nobody is using the computer, backups are always done on schedule.

The correct files are backed up. Ordinary backup software is often installed with a list of files to be backed up. This set of files usually represents the state of the system when the software was installed, and often misses critical files. Further, it often fails to back up files that get added later. Compounding this problem, VERY few businesses take the trouble to reset their backup software regularly to include new files.

EPNETBackup solves this problem by constantly reevaluating your computer system, adding files to the backup as needed. Multiple copies of files are stored using a sophisticated version control system unavailable in most other backup software of any kind. This is much too important to overlook.

 

The general definition of "proper" backups requires redundancy. One must keep multiple copies of the same files at different points in their development, called versions. As an example, you should have a different copy of each backed-up file for each backup session. Further, you should be able to easily restore any of your files up to any given point in time. Banks do it, big corporations do it, and so should small businesses. Only EPNETBackup has such an easy to use version control system.
 

EPNETBackup has many advanced features. It is the most mature product of its kind, the acknowledged industry leader. EPNETBackup runs on all versions of 32-bit Windows, including Windows-95, 98, NT, 2000, 2003, ME, and XP. It works with all networks, including Novell Netware and all Windows networks.

Exchange: EPNETBackup backs up and restores Microsoft Exchange at the sub-mailbox folder level while Exchange is running. It also backs up and restores all other Exchange objects. For more information on backing up Exchange Server, see Exchange.

SQL Server: EPNETBackup backs up and restores SQL Server databases while SQL Server is running. For more information on backing up SQL Server, see SQL Server.

This is how EPNETBackup works

After you install EPNETBackup, you will simply leave your computer on at night. EPNETBackup "hides" in the background without interfering with any other program. You will notice the EPNETBackup icon on the System Tray.

At a predetermined time, EPNETBackup "wakes up" and determines which files need backing up, and what kind of backup (out of four possibilities) is scheduled for that night. It then compresses those files into archives that are often far smaller than the original files. These archives are then encrypted using an encryption key known only to you.

After your files are compressed and encrypted, EPNETBackup activates your Internet connection, modem or other communications device and sends your files off-site to the EPNETBackup storage facility. EPNETBackup then verifies your files and goes back to sleep.

Your valuable computer files are now safe off-site. If your building burns, or your computer is stolen, your business can be saved by replacing your equipment and restoring your files from the EPNETBackup Server.
