Whats a good backup program

**Surfer** · December 25th, 2009, 01:09 AM

I want to backup my data to a NAS drive. Does anyone know of a good backup program to use? I've tried "Acronis True Copy 2010" but it keeps crashing when I try to backup my emails. I need a something where I can get a multiple site license. Any good ideas out there?

I have Acronis true image 11 on xp with NO problems, What operating system are you using?

I have it as well on win7 64 and it works perfect.
And I have it on other vista units too
You may have other issues your not aware of that stop it.
Acronis is a premiere backup imaging software

Is it possible that your E-mail is either open or has .pst or .dbx files that are open? This will cause it to crash at that point.

I love Symantec Ghost ( old version ) for backups and images.

Ok I tried it on another computer and it works fine on that, so maybe the problem is the computer I'm using to test the program. But I still want one that can give me a multiuser licence, with acronis I can't do that, so it can get a bit expensive after a while.

Acronis will do multi user. You merly have to contact them and inquire.
I believe they get interested after 10

I think Acronis offers an outstanding backup solution. I've found it very reliable, and even the Home version offers the kind of feautures you usually only find in more expensive programs. Overall, I prefer it to Ghost.

I used Terabyte image for Windows as an eval for a while for a project I was working on. Ended up licensing the Image for DOS component (windows and linux systems) as it was all I really needed for the project.

It is relatively inexpensive and seems to work well.

There is also Windows Home Server. I am running this at home as an experiment. I haven't actually tried to recover anything from the backups yet, so I have no I idea of how well it actually works.
