GearBox Description

In order to make sure your important data is safe at all times in case the system is faced with a crash, you need to create a disk backup and make sure it’s always updated. Gearbox is a small utility that was designed to help you through this process. The app comes with a compact interface that holds all the functions of the software. The tool enables you to create new backups, named “jobs”. These require that you assign a source data, which can be composed of one or more locations, as well as a directory where all the data should be saved. Advanced options enable the removal of the files from the destination folder when they do not exist in the source anymore. Also, the program can backup files before replacing them or deleting them by adding a sign at the end of the file’s name. Thus, every time a change is made to the original folders, whether an item is added or removed, the action is recorded in the destination folder. For instance, you can keep the music collection synchronized, or the home and office files. Gearbox can run at system startup, which is a recommended setting because it monitors all modification. Alternatively, you can run the program manually. The app can be managed locally or remotely. In order to do so, you must allow remote web access from the app’s settings. This requires that you assign a user ID and a password. The bottom line is that Gearbox is a nice program that can help you keep your files safe. Inexperienced users should be able to easily figure out how to customize this software. Reviewed by Gabriela Vatu, last updated on February 16th, 2013
