Title: My PC Backup Review

My PC Backup
  • Backup Your Computer-Backup Your Life

2
  • This My PC Backup review is for those that want
    to know more about the My PC Backup software
    installation to save your important computer
    files, images and documents in the event of a PC
    crash or your laptop is stolen. (yes that does
    happen and quite often). The installation is
    probably the fastest I have ever experienced as
    it was done in less than a few minutes. With only
    a few clicks the software was backing up files.

3
  • The My PC Backup site is set up in a simple step
    by step process to start the download of the
    file. If you are wondering is My PC Backup safe?
    The answer is yes. Also maybe like many things
    online it may have crossed your mind that this is
    another my PC Backup scam site. The answer to
    that is no it isn"t. Read on, and you will see
    they have a quick video that walks you through
    downloading the file. It kind of annoys me
    usually when a video auto plays, but in this case
    it helps to have the steps talked about.

  • After you download the install file you simply
    double click it to start. After this you have the
    option to backup you My Documents folder or to
    choose folders and files individually. We were
    prompted to decide between backing up the My
    Documents folder or manually selecting files and
    folders.

5
  • When the backed up files are done, you will see
    the file name in the My PC Backup interface under
    "View My Files". Here you can make sure your data
    is backed up and in the correct file structure.
    You will see the structure of the layout is very
    simple to navigate.

6
  • If you want to use an iPhone for accessing the
    site, then all you need to do is browse to
    mypcbackup.com and from here you can log in. The
    mobile app is not the best as it functions just
    like website on a PC. With many phones restoring
    data directly is not possible, but you can play
    music, save pictures and video as well.

7
  • Using the software for restoring When you are
    logged into MyPC Backup, click the Restore
    Files button which will open the restore files
    window. navigate this window to locate files or
    folders you need then click Restore. This is a
    very easy task that anyone can figure out.
  •  
  • To restore files with the site by web browser you
    need to download each file you want. As of
    writing this review there is no bulk download
    function. This makes restoring using the internet
    a little clunky and time consuming for restoring
    of files. Besides that, this method is just as
    simple as utilizing the software.

8
  • If you are wanting to find file revisions and
    older files (in case they may have been
    overwritten) then select the file and click the
    "versions" function using either the website or
    the software. Versions are simply historical
    changes in files. Whenever a change is made, a
    version is backed up. This feature allows you to
    find a previous version of a to the latest file
    version. It stores the information from the
    previous version of the file. This help to
    restore files that might have been changed or
    overwritten.

  • Using Advanced Backup Settings
  •  
  • MyPC Backup has simplified the process by making
    most of the choices for you. However, there are a
    couple advanced options that the user can apply.
    These options are the file selection, backup
    schedule, max file size, file types and security
    settings. The backup schedule can be set for
    hourly or daily. Several other backup companies
    let you set the time and day of the backup, but
    with MyPC Backup only hourly or daily can be set.
    It also needs to be mentioned that if you want
    hourly upgrades, additional charges apply. Very
    few home users will need hourly backups, but I
    wanted to mention it so you know.

  • Summary
  • MyPC Backup is a very good choice great option
    for PC backup of home computers or offices with
    only a couple PC"s. If you are a big corporation
    or are in need of staggering backup start times
    MyPC backup will may not be the solution you are
    looking for.
  • The software installation is very easy and
    straightforward, and just plain works. This is
    the primary factor for any home user. There are
    some neat advanced upgrades available, but they
    they do come with additional costs. While the MY
    PC Backup pricing and extra charges will vary
    based on the upgrades you choose, we wanted to
    make you aware of them. Many are asking how much
    does my pc backup cost? That will depend on what
    extra you add, but you can take the free trial
    for 14 days and there is no obligation to
    continue. This way you can see for yourself if My
    PC Backup will fit your needs. As with all
    companies, make sure to look at addons costs when
    making any comparisons to other companies.
