In the basic view, one of the panes displays five icons that, when clicked, start wizards to guide the user through the selected task. The advanced view presents more detailed information about the software and its status, including available drives, current backup jobs, a backup history and an event log.
This version lets desktop users schedule and perform backups--useful for road warriors and remote workers who don't store their data on the enterprise server. I attempted several kinds of backups: real-time, scheduled, to multiple CDs and across a wireless network. All worked without a hitch.
Once I selected which partitions to back up, the program prompted me to choose a destination disk for the backup image. The software lets you write to local hard disks, networked drives and CD or DVD burners. You can select the compression level, the file size and whether to split the backup image into multiple files. The images can be secured with passwords or encrypted using three levels of encryption--standard, medium or high--and the software can verify the backup image after it is written.
Restoration of files and partitions went smoothly using the wizard. Once I selected which file/partition to restore and gave the target location, restoration proceeded without any problems and all files were recovered. If the hard drive is not bootable, the system can be booted from the LiveState installation CD.
