AOMEI Backupper Standard

Four backup types are supported with AOMEI Backupper: disk backup, partition backup, file/folder backup, and system backup.

You can also clone a partition or entire disk to another drive with AOMEI Backupper.

All backed up data, no matter the type, is held in one single file, which can be saved to a local or external drive as well as a shared network folder.

AOMEI Backupper supports encrypting a backup with a password, setting a custom compression level, receiving email notifications once backups have completed, splitting a backup into custom slices or predetermined ones (for media like CDs and DVDs), and choosing between an exact backup (copies used and unused space) or an intelligent sector backup (just backs up used space).

Scheduling is supported with AOMEI Backupper so you can choose to run a backup on one occasion only or every day, week, or month, as well as at a continual interval throughout the day. Advanced settings are available to choose a full, incremental, or differential backup.

I particularly like the restore function in AOMEI Backupper. You're able to mount a backed up image as a local drive and search through the data as if it were truly in Windows Explorer. You can even copy out individual files and folders. Instead of exploring a backup, you can also restore all the data with just a few clicks.
