Editorial Review of Genie-Soft Genie Backup Manager Pro
Genie-soft's new Genie Backup Pro Edition 8 fixes nearly all of my complaints about version 7. The product remains easy to use and versatile, but integrates open file backup which formerly required a separate, $40 File Access Manager module. It also adds a self-booting disaster recovery boot disc, a feature I heartily welcome. The disc uses Vista Pre-Install Edition, which is especially useful because it lets you install drivers at any time instead of at prompts during booting.
The single-user, Pro version of Genie still offers both a traditional interface and Easy Mode. The former features standard restore and backup panes in a step-by-step format with access to advanced features; the latter employs the same wizard-based workflow but with a cleaner look, and no tools or advanced options.
Unfortunately, some of the minor cosmetic glitches, such as mis-matched colors in the navigation pane, remain Sloppy interface programming in mission-critical applications makes me nervous, but I've never had a problem with a Genie-Soft backup.
GPB 8 offers a nice blend of power and ease of use, as well as self-extracting backups--a great way to transfer files to other computers. With the addition of disaster recovery and integrated open file backup, the program is now on even footing with other traditional backup programs like Nova Backup and Backup MyPC Deluxe 2006.
