What advantages does BackupAssist have over scheduled tasks?
No need to write scripts or batch files saving you time, effort, and reducing the possibility of errors. Implement an industry-standard backup scheme automatically using BackupAssist. We put the hard work in, so you won’t have to devise a media rotation strategy yourself. If a backup fails, you’ll know about it. The backup status emails mean that you have the results of each backup delivered to your inbox, so you can at once see if anything went wrong with the backup. Scheduled jobs may be used to schedule a backup, but if it fails you are often given no warning at all. Minimise human error. The sending of reminder emails to your secretary / office assistant will minimise the chances of human error in your backup strategy. Open file backup automatically using BackupAssist.
