Backup Portable

It is important to keep backups of your sensitive data, just in case they are lost or damaged. Backup Portable is a tool which can help you do that.

Backup Portable is a straightforward software program that allows you to backup your files and folders. It can be easily figured out by first-time users.

Upon program initialization, you may select the interface language between English and German. The GUI of the tool is based on a brief wizard where you can select the files and folders that you want to backup through the folder view, since the 'drag and drop' functionality is not supported.

All you have to do is establish the output directory, and proceed with the backup procedure. The output filename automatically shows the current date of the backup; this option cannot be changed. Unfortunately, you cannot select multiple folders for processing. Once the task is done, you can check out the backup size and number of errors, if any occurred.

The simplistic application runs on a low-to-moderate amount of CPU and system memory, has a good response time and quickly finishes a task, depending on the size of the selected folder. However, Backup Portable popped up multiple errors during our tests. Also, the tool does not actually come with advanced settings; the same backup procedure can be easily done by using the 'copy' and 'paste' functions.
