BuddyBackup lets you to backup your data to your friends and colleagues’ computers. This means you get safe and secure off-site backups of your data without having to pay a third party company.

BuddyBackup works by monitoring your files for changes. When they occur, it creates encrypted backups and sends them securely over the internet to one or more of your buddies.

If your buddy isn't currently online, then BuddyBackup will just keep track of the changes and back them up later. If you have a disaster, you can easily recover your files by simply running BuddyBackup from your new computer. You can even do this from a friend's computer using the “Guest mode”. BuddyBackup will then get the files back from your buddies.

Setting up BuddyBackup is really easy – you just choose what to backup and who to backup to and that’s it. There are no schedules to setup, and BuddyBackup will just silently sit in the background keeping your files backed up.

In addition, BuddyBackup semalessly integrates with Windows so you can easily view if your data is fully backed up or not.

Features:

· Continuous Backup: no schedules to maintain. BuddyBackup will just backup as soon as possible. It smartly uses your bandwidth while you're using your PC so you shouldn’t notice too much of a slowdown.

· Historical Backups: BuddyBackup keeps historical versions of your files. This means that you can go back to an older version at any time. This is really useful if you accidentally overwrite or delete a file.

· Local backups: BuddyBackup can keep an extra backup of your files stored locally on your machine. This means you can restore files instantly without having to download from your buddies. Again, this is useful if you just overwrote or deleted a file by mistake.

· Backup to USB drives and other locations: You can also backup a USB drive to add an extra level of protection. You can also backup securely to locations such as SAN and NAS.

· Byte level incremental backup: Only the byte-level changes of your files are transferred over the internet when your file changes. This means that your bandwidth and storage costs are minimised. For example, if you add a couple of paragraphs to a 20 MB Microsoft Word® document, only those new paragraphs are sent.

· Multiple backup copies: You can choose how many total backup copies to keep. This means you get extra redundancy in the event of failure, for your extra important documents.

· Privacy assured: BuddyBackup maintains the highest standards of encryption and privacy. Simply put, only you have access to your files. Not even the buddies storing your files can read them.

· Advanced Peer-Peer technology: BuddyBackup is able to connect to buddies even behind firewalls and routers.
