    Good Points: Manages backup versions (initiates and removes old)
    Back up the changes only from one session to the other.
    Recovers any file or folder instantly
    Scheduler for new backup runs, and for removing expired revisions
    Validation of any stored backup version


    Bad Points: I wish it had more media coverage


    General comments: After years of futile attempts to find a program that will backup my projects and documents, I was pleasantly amazed to find Relative Rev Backup.

    This program has solved so many irritating problems that were an integral part of any backup software I had used. I set it to take a snapshot of my data (40GB) twice a day, and to keep backup versions taken 3 months back. With its genius implementation it fits within 50GB.

    I do not have to worry anymore about losing my data, as I can go back to so many backup versions.

    I wanted to get rid of the messy tapes, but keep the ability to have multiple daily, weekly, and monthly recovery points. Surprisingly, using a single 80GB disk, Relative Rev Backup provides multiple restore points, pretty much as my 16 tapes did.

    Starting from the smooth installation and intuitive setup, going through numerous file recoveries, it never let me ...
