Remote Backup: Major Features

Here are some of RBackup's major features. For an in-depth look at all features.

Encryption - RBackup (North American edition) supports these encryption standards and bit lengths. The multi-encryption feature makes RBackup the most secure backup software available. Plugin encryption modules are available for most countries. DES 56 bits TDES (Triple DES) 168 bits Rijndael AES (new US Federal Standard) 128 bits Rijndael AES 192 bits Rijndael AES 256 bits (most secure) Blowfish variable key length to 448 bits

Secure Key Generator - Clients can enter their own Encryption Key, or they can use RBackup's Key Generator. The Key Generator creates "statistically perfect" encryption keys that are much more secure than human users can create.

Faster 'Streaming' Transfers - Up to four times faster than 8.2, especially where many small files are being backed up.

Map clients to drives - This Server-side feature lets you assign clients to drives. You can easily use multi-drive arrays, Storage Area Networks (SAN) or even Virtual Private Networks (VPN) to store data at locations other than at the main Server.

Predefine Include/Exclude Files - You can predefine Backup Sets with files preselected for Include or Exclude, AutoSelect ON or OFF, and other Backup Set definitions. This allows building customized client installers designed for a vertical market application or a specific type of client. For example, you can make installers that require no file selection at all by the Client by preselecting a set of files to back up, and a set to exclude from backups.

Administrator's Features - Entering the Administrator's password at the Client opens access to enhanced features on the Client software.

Bigger Backups - Unlimited file size and count. RBackup supports backing up hundreds of thousands of files per Backup Set, and file sizes in the terabytes. (one thousand gigabytes)

Disaster Recovery System - Clients should make sure their Encryption Keys and Passwords are safe. But, just in case they don't, RBackup's Disaster Recovery System makes it easier to restore them from Key Disks that can be generated by the Client.

Exclusive IP Detection System - Identifies public IP address behind non-commercial routers. RBackup Servers can now be used behind inexpensive consumer-grade routers like many that are sold at electronics discount stores. Many Internet Service Providers install these routers as part of DSL and Cable Internet connections. Until now, NO Server Software has been able to operate through these non-commercial routers.

Copy to Disk - Onsite backups can be done to a series of CDs at the Client, usually as first full backups. CDs are transported to the Server location and copied onto the Server. It's faster than Remote Backups which may not be practical for large full backups.

Scheduled Start Date - Allows scheduling a Backup Set to launch at a future date.

Reports Contain Original File Size - This is important for billing, in case you are operating a commercial Remote Backup Service. Clients may not be able to relate to "Compressed File Size," since it cannot be predicted. Billing on Original File Size (pre-compression) is easier to understand.

Reporting Options - Reporting options include the ability to export comma-delimited files for easy import into accounting systems and other software.

Excel Export format - Export data to Microsoft Excel spreadsheets
