ASCOMP s BackUp Maker is a fully featured and interesting data backup solution for Windows based operating systems.

BackUp Maker may make you change your mind.As malware, ransomware and hackers continue to evolve and grow, the need for regular backups also continues to rise. Computers are also just electrical devices at the end of the day and put you at risk of losing your data at any time.Being able to secure your files regularly and have easy access to them could save you a lot of money, heartache and time, when a sudden emergency such as ransomware or a simple hardware failure rears its ugly head.

What we particularly like about BackUp Maker was how simple and accessible the backup wizard will be to beginners. The program walks you gently through the whole process. At the same time, the breadth of options available to experienced or professional is very welcome. The encryption and compression are also nice touches that not all backup software include as standard.
