Mixed Backup


Mixed backup is a combination of a full backup and some differential backups the program made after it. A user can control the length of a chain of differential backups by setting a time or a quantity of differential backups made. After the chain expires, a new full backup will take place, and all the cycle will repeat again until reaching the length of a chain, and so on.

Optimized Scheduling Algorithms


The Handy Backup Team constantly raises the smoothness, the speed and the reliability for each part of its product. Thus, the version 7.7.6 contains a newer, smarter and highly optimized algorithm for scheduling backup and restoration tasks. With the changes and optimizations built in, a new algorithm provides faster and smoother job, with just the same user interface!
