BounceBack Ultimate Mirrors Drives

Posted by Tom Settel on Sunday, 20 June, 2010

BounceBack Ultimate is unique among backup software. It’s a jack-of-all-trades that syncs; backs up files; does continuous data protection, versions, and schedules; supports multiple destinations; and will mirror your system drive onto an external drive, an exact copy from which you may boot if your main drive fails.

Version 9.2 retains its colorful interface. Over the years, though, CMS, while leaving this look intact, has gradually trimmed and condensed a rather poor workflow into one that is concise and easy to use, with all options in easy reach.

My only gripe is the price. In a world of worthy $50 backup applications, as well as the $29 BounceBack Essential $69 seems a tad pricey. Still, BounceBack Ultimate works great for me, and is simple enough that most people can figure it out
in short order. Think of it as an easy way to add RAID 1 redundancy and point-in-time restore. But most users will be fine with Essential.

The mirroring function requires an entire drive; use one not much bigger than the drive being mirrored.
