Iperius backs up to cloud services such as Dropbox and Google Drive. However unlike other programs that allow you to interact with the service via a web browser by merely letting you sign in, Iperius forces you to sign in from outside the program and grab a token. You can read about the methodology here, but this is another sticky wicket for less experienced users. Iperius offers an online storage service that may be used with the program if your service isn’t supported. Iperius also offers a console service for IT types that will track what’s been going on with your backups. Some versions of the program (not tested) support backup of SQL, virtual machines, Exchange and more. The free version is great for backing up files to local and local network destinations, but it won’t run as a service, perform multiple simultaneous backups, or create recovery boot media as the pay versions will.Īs the single PC license is a mere 29 euros ($32 at the time of this writing), I recommend that you give the 21-day trial a shot. The advanced features are useful, and if you don’t need them, you can continue to use the limited version for free. You can compare all the Iperius versions on the company’s website. I did a number of tests with Iperius, including multiple-action file/image jobs with multiple destinations. For all file-related tasks, including downloading files from FTP and network locations, it performed quickly without, as I mentioned, slowing down my system. The integrity of the backups was perfect. I observed only one glitch in my testing, and it was only in copying a successful imaging operation to the other backup destinations. The only issue I had was with imaging: An image was created properly, but wasn’t copied to my local external hard drive, which Iperius said was likely because the primary destination (external USB drive) was formatted to exFAT and not NTFS. Hopefully, this is not an issue much longer.
