APBackup is an automatic backup tool that allows you to back up your data to local or network drives, FTP or LAN. The backup files can be stored uncompressed or in standardZip format, with additional support for other compression formats (using plug-ins).

Here is what Scott Swedorski, the founder of Tucows.Com, said about APBackup: "It is very rare that I see a company put so much effort into teaching a user how to use their software. It was extremely easy to learn what APBackUp does and how to use it. I really pushed this application hard over the past few days and it always worked as it should."

While very straightforward, APBackUp has all the features any PC user, whether a novice or a pro, might need. These include support for all storage media types (floppy, hard drive, network disk, DVD, CD-R/W, FTP or LAN), plug-in support for any type of data compression method beyond Zip (WinRar, ARJ or JAR), file/folder synchronizationoptions and a brainlessly simple task scheduler.

In addition, APBackUp offers several extremely handy features that most other backup software developers seem to overlook - like backing up files that are open and in use, e-mail notification for backup results, incremental backup, multiple backup file versions or an option to run the program as a network service. Plus, APBackUp can back up multiple PCs and store that data in one place - a very convenient solution for small businesses and home offices.

Backup files can be stored in standard Zip (Zip64 for archives greater than 4GB) format.
