| BackItUp |
This program can be used to make scheduled daily backups. It includes a built-in scheduler. You can create scheduled "Backup Tasks", using profiles that contain lists of folders to backup and compression and storage options.
The outstanding speed of operation is achieved thanks to the intelligent incremental backup method. When you start the backup process for the first time, the program creates an archive of all files contained in the folders that you selected for backup. On the next run, it only adds the files that were created or modified since the last backup session. This method speeds-up the process a hundred fold. There are many backup utilities that claim to make incremental backups. However, most of them, including the standard Windows backup utility, use old algorithms designed for tape backup devices. They create additional archives containing new and modified files on each run. If you have files that are modified frequently, this may consume much of your disk space. And, additionally, you will have to handle multiple archives instead of one.
