The major differences between Mirror, Classic and Professional editions are the supported backup types. Professional edition implements all four backup types (see "Backup Types" section for a full description of backup types), Classic edition does not implement incremental backup type and Mirror edition implements only the mirror backup type.

Backup4all also comes in a special OEM edition, distributed only with some USB hard drives under the name of "Backup4all OTB Edition" ("One Touch Button" edition). This edition is the equivalent of "Backup4all Professional Edition", but it is capable of backing up only to these USB hard drives.

Features of Backup4All:

Intuitive Interface

With the help of the file tree, you can see all files that are in the backup and the new files that will be stored at the next backup execution. You can sort and search this file tree. You can start this backup application at windows startup or minimize it to the system tray.

Flexibility
This backup software is very flexible, allowing you to run almost any backup operation or style you might require.

Manage multiple backup items
This backup software allows defining multiple backups and saving them for future use. On the main form, you have an overview of all defined backups organized in groups. You can create shortcuts to any backup item and execute them with a double click from your desktop. This backup program comes with several predefined backup items: "My Documents", "My Pictures" and "Internet Favorites".

Statistics
You can actually see the number of files that will be processed at next backup (very useful when you have a large number of files). Other information refers to the size and date of the executed backups and the available free space on storage destination.

Summary
Text description of the full setup for each backup job that allows you to easily review the information regarding the backup.

New Backup Wizard
This backup software provides step-by-step instructions to create a new backup item.

Easy File and Folder Selection
You can browse a folder tree to select several files and folders as source of the backup or you can include or exclude them individually.

Backup Destination
You can store the backup in a local folder, on another computer in the same LAN, on media such as: CD-R, CD-RW, DVD+R, DVD-R, DVD+RW, DVD-RW, on USB drives or other removable media.

Built-in CD Support
This backup software comes with its own built-in CD burning support. Just set the destination on CD and execute the backup item. However, if you prefer, you can use UDF format (using products such as DirectCD or InCD).
Backup4all also has the possibility to erase CD-RW/DVD-RW media.

Backup Types
Plenty of backup types to choose from: full backup, differential backup, incremental backup and mirror backup.

File Filters
Powerful filtering engine with lots of options (filter by attribute, size, date, name and type). You can build filters using a combination of restrictions and you can define separate filters for inclusion and exclusion.

Built-in Scheduler
You can easily setup a powerful scheduler using the available scheduler configurations to make unattended backups.

Extra Actions
Perform extra actions before and/or after backup execution.

Standard Zip Compression
This backup software creates standard zip files. This means that your data is not at the mercy of the utility itself; you can access it with any zip compatible utility.

Customized Zip Names
You can customize name prefixes for the zip archives, which store your backup versions. Backup4all also support file/folder paths longer than 260 characters (turn off file parsing)

Password Protection
You can protect your ZIP files by setting a password to each backup.

Snapshots
Mirror backup type makes an exact copy of selected files and folders.

Disk Spanning
Automated support for splitting your backup between many removable disks or even on the same media. You can specify the maximum size of the zip archives.
When performing a mirror backup and using disk spanning you can choose not to split the files. This is a useful option because you can copy your music/movies to cd or dvd and not have them splitted up when the cd or dvd is full.

Multi-Thread
This backup software allows you to start more backups at the same time, to execute a whole group of backups at once, show the progress of each backup.

Logs
The operations performed by the application are logged. You can change the location of the log file if you want to store it in a different place.

Command Line
There is a command line version of this backup application available. Use Windows scheduler (or third party) to schedule backups.

Restore Wizard
Restore backed up data step-by-step. Allows you to choose the version of files which will be restored and filter them to restore files that are needed.

Restore
You can quickly restore any file version, the latest version of the files or a whole folder from the backup item.

Compatibility
You can restore data using any standard zip software, Backup4all gives you this way more flexibility if you need to restore data on a different computer.

One touch backup
Some USB enclosures have a button to start the execution of an associated program. If you have such a device, you can configure Backup4all to execute a backup item or a backup group when this button is pressed.

Play custom sounds
Backup4all can play custom success/warning/error sounds at the end of the backup

File warnings
File warnings like access denied, locked files, etc. are displayed to the user during backup execution if the user chooses so. These warnings are also written to the log file. Scheduled backups do not show these warnings even when this option is set. Default is checked
