August 27, 2012 – (HOSTSEARCH.COM) –
Novosoft has officially released a new version of
Handy Backup, which include advanced network backup options, improved interface, and a number of other improvements.
The updated backup software updates, version 7.2.2, will pride itself particularly on updates of non-English localizations which will include French localization, usability improvements and support of UNC paths.
The latter of the three will include hidden UNC paths and access to backing up remote computers via IP destinations and enable users to apply handy backup for multiple networks.
Aleks Dolgushev, the Business Development Director of Handy Backup, explained with an anecdote: "Can I change the color of your software interface, so it is drastically pink, one user has asked me recently. Listening to users is a truly actionable way to invent new features," he said.
"The example with the pink color request above shows that it might be not quite the best idea to immediately implement every idea you can hear from a user. But as a software developer you definitely want to make sure you don’t underestimate those ideas."
The update will look to improve the performance of Handy Backup as a tool for remote backup management by meeting the requirements of small-medium sized IT companies.
Dolgushev continued: "One partner of Handy Backup has asked us if he could back up her computer when he is logged out." We provided him with an instruction and thought: "Hey, what about backing up network computers the users are logged out."
"Along comes a new feature of IP-destination-based network backup, which was met extremely warmly by our focus group users and partners."
The new version can be acquired on handybackup.net, the official website, and from Handy Backup resellers worldwide.
