I was researching backup programs for Windows for my customers and found
Cobian. I installed it on my system and I immediately like it better
than Syncback! You can tell it when to do full backups, how many to
keep, do incremental every day, saves files in folders for easy restore,
and your profile is as easy to set up as anything I have seen.

I've been using it for years. It doesn't back up the system though, just
data.

John: Just the OS, right? Because I am backing up data and profiles
and it seems to work great. I really like the configuration of full and
incremental backups.
Thanks,

Right, it won't capture the system state, but all the other stuff works
well.

I use Macrium Reflect which is free for non-commercial use. Very similar to
Norton Ghost but a lot cheaper :-)

Yes, great program, and free! We use it to automatically back up data on
all of our Windows servers to a location on our CentOS backup server every
night.

I think you could do the same incremental thing with Micro$oft
SyncToy, using the Echo mode.

I do use it too (with a business laptop in use at my home) ;
it does good job, quick and silent.
The only problem is to know how to paramétrize it with accuracy,
because you may get surprises while recovering,
unexpected fantomatic files should happend ...
