The DT Utilities (formerly Migo) PC backup software program, is one of the most comprehensive and reliable applications, on the market today. It’s enhanced functionality and dependability, in the areas of backing up data, pictures, videos and audio files and rapidly restoring them to their original state, along with the ability to securely transfer all files to different backup media such as tape drives, DVD+R, CD-R/RW or USB drives, gives the software maker a huge advantage over the competition. The price is a little steep, but it does offer a variety of signature features that are the latest technological innovation, such as compressing files to create even more free space on all backup media. Automatic scheduling can be modified, in terms of frequency, while the software precisely executes assigned tasks, without occupying or taking up needed system resources. All backup data is compressed as well as encrypted. The encryption function in particular, serves as an additional layer of security for protecting sensitive data and insuring that it doesn’t get compromised. Additionally, all information is scanned for viruses, before a scheduled backup sequence is initiated, which could prove useful to those who don’t scan their machines on a regular basis. As we all know, many anti-virus or Internet suite firewall programs that offer a full fledged anti-virus application, sometimes, take up a lot of resources and although are needed, many of us don’t seem to want to stick to a predetermined schedule for long system scans. However, this top tier backup software application, with it’s integrated anti-virus capability, can function exactly when it’s needed the most: when it’s critical to get your files safely and expeditiously backed up or transferred onto your favorite backup media, while making sure that viruses are kept out. Furthermore the software, can perform sequential and differential backups, as well as restore files to a location of your choosing. It offers a command line utility, a feature to split media files across your hard drive and the ability to restore or rebuild damaged or lost catalogues, from already saved, backed up data. File backups can be spanned to hard drives, while operating systems can be restored, without the need for reinstalling. A user friendly interface, makes it easier to navigate through the different menus and a detailed tutorial, thoroughly explains all the options available, from targeting for backup, specific files or folders, to an entire system. Overall, this software package is one of the best applications out there and when you think about it, you just can’t put a price on having consistent reliability and total peace of mind.
