GRBackPro: Backup Software for Windows

Imagine the problems that would be caused by an inability to access valuable data because of a hard drive problem. GRBackPro from GRSoftware is a Windows data backup program that helps protect from such event.

Users can define multiple backup sessions: backup a whole disk, a single folder or just a few files. An integrated scheduler will start a backup automatically without user intervention, even if the PC is in stand-by, and conditions can be set such as paths available, no user input and CPU loading to fine tune the backup process.

GRBackPro supports networks, USB drives, hard drives, DVD-RW, CD-RW and all removable hard drives. Tapes are not supported. GRBackPro can be installed as a Windows Service to have backups start even if no users are logged in. It supports Windows Volume Shadow Copy on 32bit systems in order to be able to backup open and locked files. GRBackPro handles long path names up to 1024 characters. Unicode file names are supported even inside the zip archives.

Multiple destination disks can be spanned so as to build a multi disk backup set. There is a split mode to burn DVDs after the backup has been completed. There is a History mode to keep multiple backup sets. There is also an integrated restore facility to restore files or whole backups and also to keep two or more PCs synchronized. One or more tasks can be executed before and/or after the backup, such as start/stop/restart services close an application, start a program, pause the backup, open a message box, end a process, or send an email (which, among other options, will send the backup log report if any error has been found in the backup).

Registry backup both locally (for an easy manual restore) or on the destination disk. There is an automatic software update facility. This is featured backup software with professional options built to solve any data backup problem. GRBackPro is suitable for inexperienced users because it integrates a Backup Wizard that guides the user through the process.

The release of version 7.3 of GRBackPro – Professional Backup software adds some new features.

The software is available in both Workstation and Server versions, enabling data backup in a small to medium sized network. With this new release, GRSoftware introduces Service administration featuring user access control of specific groups and/or users. Also featured is a new administrative dialog, displayed when a backup is running in Service mode. Email sending now supports SSL/TLS so that email can be sent to, for example, gmail.com accounts. Another new feature is the conditional backup execution based on paths available, user input and CPU load. These new features facilitate the customization of backup software solutions. The new version lets users easily backup their valuable data and supports the most recently released Windows 7 and Server 2008. GRBackPro is a backup software solution for the Windows platform and works in the background.
