About BackUp Maker
Malware, user errors, or hardware failures often spell the end for important files. Therefore, it is essential to create regular backups to have a safety copy to fall back on in case of an emergency. Discover how BackUp Maker simplifies the process of data backup.
With BackUp Maker, you simply select the data you want to secure, configure automation if desired, choose the destination, and your documents are reliably backed up - either scheduled or based on specific events. Your data lands safely and compactly in zip format on hard drives, USB sticks, or in the cloud.
To protect sensitive information from unauthorized access, BackUp Maker offers high-security encryption of up to 256-bit (AES). Additionally, the program allows for the secure offloading of your encrypted backups via SFTP or FTP/FTPS to a web server.
BackUp Maker supports a comprehensive backup concept without restrictions. Secure only new and changed files, create multiple backup generations, distribute backups across various storage media, and perform custom actions before and after the backup.

"Perfect Data Backup" Posted 2026-09-10
Pros: It is very easy to set up, and the actual backup process—once everything is configured—takes practically just one mouse click. It is simply well designed. Restoring data is just as easy should a problem arise; that, too, is done with a single click. I have been using it for years and have never lost any data. This little program has saved the day for me many times. I would choose it again in a heartbeat, and I use it for both business and personal purposes.
Cons: I can't think of anything negative. It is easy to set up, easy to use, and above all, very reliable.
Overall: I am completely satisfied; no complaints. Once you grasp the principle, using it is really simple and self-explanatory.

Pros: A truly very useful program for data backup. Once the desired backups have been set up as a task, you don't have to worry about anything else—everything happens automatically.
Cons: The range of features for creating a backup job is truly extensive, and for—let's say—inexperienced users, it can be difficult to find their way around at first.
Overall: A truly excellent program that offers great value for money. The software is continuously being developed, and regular updates are provided. Highly recommended.

Pros: Easy to set up and runs reliably on any schedule that you want. I have used it daily for years and have had very few issues.
Cons: You need to be very careful is you want to use the "Procedure before/after backup". feature. It requires some technical knowledge.
The change to/from daylight savings time will force a full backup.Overall: I've used this for daily and monthly backups for many, many, years. I also use Macrium for images, but BackUp Maker is my easy and reliable data backup.

"My favourite backup software" Posted 2026-09-05
Pros: The use of standard ZIP format archives, the ease of use on the interface and that it works away in the background and doesn't interrupt you unless necessary.
Cons: I have not been able to find an option to do nothing if no modified files are found because it generates an error report if there are no changed files when that can be a valid situation.
Overall: I really like using this software because of how quickly a basic backup can be set up and that it's unobtrusive. I would like to see an option added to allow a backup to be skipped if there's nothing to back up.

"Best Backup Program On The Market" Posted 2026-09-04
Pros: Extreamly versatile and intuitive.
We prefer non-encrypted backup, so if we mess up a file and need to retrieve a backup, it is as simple as going to the place that we backed it up and unzipping it..that's it.
Very affordable.Cons: Step by step backup setup instructions would be a nice addition.
Overall: Best and easiest backup program on the market. I like the ability to immediately just go to my file a manager, find the backed up file, and simply unzip it, without needing a special program to un-encrypt it.

I like the way that it intuitively deletes the oldest backup to make room for the newest. -

Pros: Extensive configuration possible based on backup options (incremental, full, etc.), the storage (LAN), and the settings options (which data types, etc.)

"Data backup: simple yet powerful" Edited 2026-09-01
Pros: BackUp Maker has a very clear layout, which is particularly helpful for those new to data backup. The programme guides you effectively through the process of setting up your own backup. Gradually, you realise just how many options the software offers. For example, the backup files can be stored in the cloud with 256-bit encryption or transferred to a server via FTP. The timing and frequency of the backups can also be specified in great detail. Certain events can also be taken into account in this process. Certain processes can be triggered before and after each backup. This can also be done using your own scripts, which are launched by BackUp Maker. However, if you prefer, you can also keep it simple.
Cons: The interface looks very old-fashioned and you easily feel as though you’ve been transported back 10 to 20 years. It also cannot be resized or customised in any other way to suit your own preferences. Because of this somewhat antiquated appearance, it’s easy to overlook just how capable the software is and how modern it really is underneath the surface.
Overall: This type of software – which isn’t overloaded but still offers all the features you need – is very practical for everyday use. If you can overlook the rather unattractive yellow and blue layout, you’ll find a backup programme that ticks all the boxes, is surprisingly easy to use despite – or perhaps because of – its old-fashioned interface, and provides security for your data at a comparatively low price.
