Backup Platinum 3.0 - Christmas should be crowded and sociable but backups small and secure

November 30, 2006 - SoftLogica announces Backup Platinum 3.0, a new version of its data backup tool.

It makes a reserve copy of your critical data virtually to any type of storage media: hard or USB drives, CD-R/W or DVD±R/RW media, FTP server or Local Area Network. The program uses “Wizard” approach to define the backup set: what, where, how and when to backup. 128-bit encryption with Blowfish and multichoice ZIP compression on the fly are available to keep your backups small and secure. Built-in CD/DVD engine allows you to erase the rewritable disk before burning and automatically split large backups to several parts using disk spanning. Backup Platinum is based on multi-threaded file-processing engine and creates detailed logs of all operations. The program can also run in service mode under NT-based systems to execute scheduled tasks even when nobody is logged in.

What’s new in version 3.0:

General Backup Management
- Backup to self-restorable executable files;
- Option to specify alternative destination for backup;
- Additional criteria to filter files by creation and modification date;
- Ability to specify include/exclude masks for synchronization items;
- Ability to divide backup archive to several volumes with specified size;
- Option to add file or folder to an existing backup item from Windows Explorer.
