Cobian Backup 9
Backup tool

Cobian Backup is a multi-threaded program that can be used to schedule and backup your files and directories from their original location to other directories/drives in the same computer or other computer in your network. FTP backup is also supported in both directions (download and upload).

Cobian Backup exists in two different versions: application and service. The program uses very few resources and can be running on the background on your system, checking your backup schedule and executing your backups when necessary. Cobian Backup is not an usual backup application: it only copies your files and folders in original or compressed mode to other destination, creating a security copy as a result. So Cobian Backup can be better described as a "Scheduler for security copies".

Cobian Backup supports several methods of compression and strong encryption.

Dropbox
Backup, synchronise & share important files


Dropbox works just like any other folder on your computer, but with a few differences.

Here's how it works:
Drag and drop to move files around, just like you normally would
Any files or folders inside Dropbox will get synchronized to Dropbox's servers and any other computer linked to your account.
Green checkmarks will appear on top of your files to let you know that they're synced and up to date.

Your files are always safe. All data is transferred over SSL and encrypted with AES-256 before storage.

Dropbox keeps track of every change made to any of its contents. Any changes are instantly and automatically sent to any other computer linked to your Dropbox. The Dropbox clients for Windows, Mac and Linux all play nice with one another too!

Dropbox is also smart with how it tracks changes to files. Every time you make a change, Dropbox only transfers the piece of the file that changed (also known as block-level or delta sync), making it easy to work with big files like Photoshop or Powerpoint documents.

Access from anywhere
Not at any of your computers and want to grab one of your files? Just hop onto Dropbox's web interface for access to your files from anywhere in the world.

Share your files
Dropbox's shared folders make it easy for you to share a bunch of stuff with other people. This makes Dropbox perfect for team projects, music/video editing, and much more.
Any member of a shared folder can add, edit and delete the contents within.
Collaborators of your shared folder won't have access to any of your files outside of that folder.
Changes made to a shared folder are instantly sent to every member of that folder.

Need to share some files with non-Dropbox users? Just drop files into your Public folder. Any files in here will be given a link that you can send to others in e-mails, IMs, blogs, etc. without requiring people to sign up for Dropbox.

Show your photos
Want to share your pictures with friends and family? Just create a folder within the Photos folder and drop your pictures inside. These folders will be viewable in a gallery on our web interface.

Galleries in your Photos folder also have a unique web address that you can share with others (non-Dropbox users too!) through e-mail, instant messaging, or blogs.

Syncplicity
Backup, synchronise & share your files

As PCs are becoming so cheap, instead of replacing an ageing machine, it’s now easier to buy a laptop you can use on the move or get a home PC for the living room. Either way, the problem is that you might want the same data across every computer. That might include your fonts, desktop images and your work data.

Traditionally we’ll have used a desktop backup tool to backup your files and restore them to another machine. However, this doesn’t always work too well and a wiser choice would be to back up your data to a remote server (or website), login with another computer, select the files you want on your machine and then download to the other PC. The other alternative is to synchronise your files across various computers so you’ll automatically have the files you want across every machine, without having to run a scheduled backup.

Syncplicity attempts to be such a tool. At the moment it is Windows only, although a Mac version will be available later this year. You can use this tool to either backup, store and restore your data to/from the Syncplicity website or, to synchronise the data across your PCs, as long as they are using XP or Vista. If you’re away from your regular machine, you can use Syncplicity to access your remote files you’ve backed up to your online account.

Best of all, you can use Syncplicity to share and synchronise files with other users. Simply right-click on the folders you want to share and insert the information of the user(s) that you want to access the folder and contents. This might be useful for sharing project documentation between different developers, located in various locations through the world.

Note that you'll need to open a Syncplicity account, before you install the software. You get 2GB/year which will sync up to 2 computers, for free.

Note:
FREE Subscription: Start with 2GB and 2 computers for FREE
