Ok – So I had a chance to test out the new Oops!Backup software. I have tried Time Machine for my mac, and Love it. This software has been described as ‘the windows version of Time Machine’ or ‘Time Machine for Windows’ and I was a bit skeptical at first, but obviously very excited that something that amazing was FINALLY available for windows.
Maybe I should give you a little bit of background about me, and Backups.
Never happens. I am the ‘I’ll do it later’ kind of guy when it comes to backups, well ya know what? Later never comes.
Backing up things is so boring. Time Consuming. etc.
For most people, especially us Designers, our files are very freaking important. Like most people I’ve lost data. Hard Drives crash, stuff happens. But when it happens you usually don’t say ‘Oops!’ This product should probably be called “OMFG Where is my stuff!?”. But anyway, whether it be that last design you did for your client, or the pictures of your kids, losing data sucks.
Well I am happy to report, that having used Oops! on my windows PC for about 2 weeks, I freaking love it. I actually have been less stressed worrying about my data, which rocks! No more worrying about backing up data, I just know that its already backed up! and when I change stuff, its a done deal! Saved!
Another great use of Oops!Backup is if you have a small team of developers in your business and need to keep your projects backed up easily without worrying about losing anything – lifesaver.
Conclusion
I would recommend Oops!Backup to anyone on windows, that is looking for an alternative to Time Machine because its the best thing i’ve tried. Never having to worry about backups again is a good feeling.
Installation is a freaking dream as well. All you have to do is install it, then select what you want to backup – and where you want to back up your files – I have mine backing up to an external hard drive and it works like a dream. It backs up regularly and I never have to touch it again. If anything goes wrong, just Restore back to a date in the past. Done. The day is Saved!
Hope this review was helpful to some of you windows users dyeing for an easy file backup solution!
You can Download a Free 30-Day Trial of the software – Which runs on Windows XP/Vista/7

HI please count me in , will hope to win one thankyou
I am in the middle of a 30 day trial of another piece of back up software similar to this. Time to try this one and hopefully win a free copy! Thanks!!!
If we were talking about trousers, I’d be the geek wearing a belt and suspenders. But we are talking about my business data. My data is on a RAID on my computer and I backup to a RAID NAS. Have been evaluating for a week now. Excellent. Unobtrusive. I have tried several other products. I will keep this one.
I could really use this! Thanks!
I usually use Acronis for backups but would love to try out this program. From the review it sounds awesome.
Thanks

I’d love to win a license. My brother’s hard drive just went on a nearly-new computer (thankfully, he had most files backed up to an external hard drive, but he lost everything he’d saved in the last week), so backing up is definitely on my mind. I may give this to him if I win.
A giveaway that can let me sleep better at night win/win.
This would be fantastic to win! Thanks!
