    Howdy, all —

    We’re running Dell computers with external hard drives. We’re getting extra backup drives for each of the edit suite systems (Adobe Video Collection). I’m comfortable manually backing things up, but others in our organization would prefer to have software handle the backups.

    Do any of you use a backup software package? It’d be nice if we could just open the backup software, click “backup” and all changes since the previous backup would be backed up to the external drive.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks!
    Dex

    I use syncback
    https://www.2brightsparks.com/syncback/syncback-hub.html

    It has tons of ways to backup folders, directories, files…

    I usually set up a backup profile when I start a new project. I set Syncback to automatically backup that project folder once every hour.It always works and I’ve never noticed any change to performance when it is running

    ghobii,
    Nice software! I am going to give it a whirl and see what hapens.

    Dex,
    I use Paragon Drive Backup (v6.0). Its an older version, but does a decent job of creating an image of the harddrive.

    Thanks for the responses — Ghobii, that’s looking like a winner for us.

    Windows XP builtin backup (a Veritas product, I think) has worked well for me. Keep your work in a few well-placed folders. Do a full backup once a week and incrementals once or twice more per week.
