Background operation and control options push SitBack ahead of the field. Buyers sing praise of ability to program automatic, unattended backup" - PC Week "Indeed SitBack is shot through with common sense and goes to inordinate lengths to rescue you from your own stupidity.

SitBack I found indispensable." - PC Magazine "Backing up is a lot like dental hygiene: By the time you get serious about flossing and brushing, it's usually too late. SitBack takes the bite out of hard disk backup by saving files in the most convenient way - without your involvement." - PC World SitBack has to be one of the most exciting products of the year. Overall SitBack is one of the best backup packages available..." -Computer Buyers Guide "The ideal low-cost semi-continuous backup system would let you back up to disk and schedule backups on whatever schedule you desired. Enter SitBack." - Network Computing The Problem If you're like most people, you know how important it is to regularly back up your hard disk. But like most people, you probably don't. Why? Because back up is a chore. It's non-productive and traditional backup software - although fast- requires too much effort, making backup easy to ignore. Even if you backup once a week or month, all of the files you have created or changed since your last backup are still exposed. These files are usually the most important at the time and if lost causes the greatest productivity loss. The Solution Its SitBack, a memory resident backup program that keeps your most recently created and changed files backed up automatically, in the background, without lifting a finger or exiting the programs you are working with. You remain 100% productive and at the same time 100% protected. Its perfect for professionals who have more important things to worry about than the usual hassle involved with other backup programs, but who's data is critical and time sensitive. How It Works SitBack works when your not by backing up your newly created and changed files each time your computer is just sitting idle for an amount of time you can specify. So your hard disk is kept currently backed up throughout the day... automatically and in the back-ground. Or you can schedule backups at specific times of the day or week. Either way it's the perfect utility for those who want complete peace of mind, without the hassle. Easy To Use/Setup SitBack is easy to install and setup. Just tell SitBack which drives, directories or files to backup, how frequently and to where. Once it's setup, the rest is left to SitBack. You probably won't even know its there.
