Free Online Backups
BuddyBackup gives you unlimited online backups of your files for free, by allowing you to easily and securely backup your data onto your buddies.
Online backups (also known as "off-site" backups) are really important because it means that your files are secure even if you have a disaster such as fire, flood or theft. This is preferable to, say,
just using a USB drive which might be sitting next to your PC when disaster strikes.
Effortless and Instant
BuddyBackup takes the effort out of backups. You only need a couple of clicks to setup and then it will silently run in the background backing up your files
and there are no backup schedules to set up.
BuddyBackup also continuously backs up your files the moment they change. This means that you have up-to-the-second protection.
BuddyBackup intelligently uses your bandwidth, only using a trickle when you are using your computer. It also only backs up the changes to your files. For example, if you add a couple of paragraphs to a large Microsoft Word document, only those new paragraphs are sent. So, you won't notice
any difference when it's running.
Secure
Your security and privacy are assured: no-one else can read your files, not even your buddies. Read more about security.
