How It Works
When you switch Handy Backup into service mode, its icon disappears from system tray, without removing a respective process from Windows Task Manager. Starting an OS also launches this process and makes Handy Backup operation invisible and independent of users.
The ability to launch Handy Backup as service is especially useful for a network-oriented edition, Handy Backup Server Network.
With it, a central computer (which is used to manage all tasks) has a server application installed, and networked computers have client applications which run as Windows service and grant the server access to their data. As a result, data from workstations is backed up invisibly, and people who work on them may never know about it.
Utilizing Backup as Windows Service for Centralized Network Backup
During network backup, a central management computer has a server application installed, and networked computers have client applications, which run as Windows service and grant the server access to their data.
As a result, the central panel gathering data from workstations invisibly, and people that work on them may never bother about data backup and about any actions related to it.
Advantages of Running Backups in a Windows Service Mode
