Giveaway - 50 licenses for Backup4all Pro

We are organizing a giveaway, where 50 licenses for Backup4all Professional (total value of $2500) will be given to 50 users. All you have to do is create a video tutorial about FBackup and upload it to Youtube - there is no drawing so as long as there are licenses left from those 50, you will receive one too. Here are the details: Backup4all Giveaway.

Why are network backups not allowed?

    I was disappointed to find that FBackup will not backup files from a network-based source, which very much limits its usefulness for me. This can't be a security issue since there is nothing to stop you copying from a network source, which is how I have to back them up at present. It would be really helpful if someone could explain the logic of this. Also, can anyone suggest a way around this problem? It is not practical to put FBackup on the server.
    Many thanks!

    Hi,

    We added your request on our wishlist.
    If you want to back up files from a network source, we suggest you to use Backup4all, a commercial backup application.

    Hi, I downloaded Backup4all as you recommended and so far I'm pleased with it - quite impressed in fact. It is backing up mapped network drives with no problem. Thank you for the advice.
