  Duration of ownership: 15 Days

  Strengths: Reliable; Tested successfully on 2 laptops; XP Pro 32-bit, and Vista Premium 64-bit. Fast; Disaster Recovery on USB HD in 3:42 hrs (250 GB/90 GB used), DVDs in 4:18 hrs. Simple; Backs up documents, music, and pictures, and also critical system files

  Weaknesses: Could not backup on Dual Layer DVD

  Overall Evaluation: Many programs do backup, others do System Recovery. But the ones that do both with comforting reliability, speed, and simplicity are very few. Out of the 3 I tried; Genie Backup Manager Pro 8 stands out with shiny stars. Save and Restore made my CD drive disappear. I had to uninstall and use Window Restore to get it back. True Image Home 2009 trial did the job, but it was a bit slower than GBM, and I could not test the system restore functionality in trial. GBM is more user friendly, but I guess this is a personal preference. With GBM Pro trial you can try the whole thing for a month. This gave me assurance and reflects the company’s confidence in their product. If you decide to try GBM Pro, make sure to download the right file for your computer; 32-bit or 64-bit. I tested GBM Pro on 2 laptops; XP Pro 32-bit, and Vista Premium 64-bit. I created Disaster Recovery on USB HD in 3:42 hrs (250 GB/90 GB used), including Integrity Test. It did the same job on 6 DVDs in 4:18 hrs. I created initial full backup and scheduled incremental backup. It ran successfully on schedule even with Sleep mode. It defaults to backing up typical documents, music, and pictures, and also critical system files, and any additions or exclusions you want. All jobs are completed within Windows while I was working. I had some inquiries and wanted to test the company’s support. I used ticket system on the company’s site and I got courteous knowledgably responses in less than 12 hours. With that kind of service and with such a reliable product, I did not wait for the trial period to end and placed my order on the company’s site. I receive my license in less than 1 minuet, and all I did to register my trial version is to paste it on the registration window. Genie Backup Manager Pro 8 is definitely worth trying, You virtually have the full functionality for 30 days to get to the confidence and comfort level you need to commit to buying a utility that is a must have for every computer.
