What is BackupChain?

BackupChain is a simple to use, yet powerful backup tool for

database support, and a strong parallel backup process for fast

PC Backup to External Hard Drives, Network Shares, and FTP

BackupChain performs fast incremental and differential backups to eSATA drives, network drives, and FTP.
The built-in FTP backup server permits receiving files from other machines on the Internet.

To meet the needs of IT professionals, BackupChain contains specialized proprietary technology to handle millions of files and so-called “in-file deltas”. Delta compression is ideal for frequently changing files, such as databases and virtual disks, because only file changes are stored rather than the entire file. BackupChain is the only USB backup tool available that provides delta compression, which significantly lowers bandwidth and storage requirements.

Encrypted Online Backup for Servers and Workstations — Both Sides are in Your Control

• Set up and control your own remote backup system using the
  built-in FTP server. Running your own
  server at another site eliminates online storage
  costs and your data is stored on your own
  computers.
• Back up your files to any other PC running
  BackupChain or any FTP hosting site on the Internet.
• Save your office files to your home computer and vice-versa.
• Back up your servers and PCs at several office locations.
• Encrypt your data with secure transmission (FTPS) and military-strength encryption
  (FIPS, HIPAA compliant).

Configurable File Version Backup

• Configure precisely the number of versions you want to
  keep depending on
  the file type and file location.
• Compress specific file types the way you need (in-file delta, zip, rar, gz, etc.)
• Specify different settings for each folder and file type
• Specify specific file types to remove from your backup

System File Backup and Locked File Handling

• BackupChain opens locked files of any type.
• You can back up databases while the database server is live (Microsoft SQL, Oracle, etc.)
• Backup online virtual machines
  on Hyper-V, Virtual Server R2, VMware Server, and other platforms.
• Applications and system files can be processed while applications are running.
