NovaBACKUP Earns Full Points for Available Data Backup Functions
In its April edition, PC Magazine tested eight data backup software products for their ease-of-use and overall functions for data backup and recovery. The only products that received an overall 5 out of 5 points for the availability of data backup functions were NovaBACKUP Professional 12 and Acronis True Image Home 2011. For other individual features, including usage and recovery capabilities, both products received identical scores.  Both achieved 3.5 points for ease-of-use and 4 points for restore features on a 5 point scale.

"NovaBACKUP Professional 12 allows unskilled users to protect all data in an easy, but professional process. The recognition of the product strengthened by independent experts of the PC Magazine pleased us very much, as the editors have tested our data protection software from the perspective of untrained IT-users and awarded us with the highest score," said Stefan Utzinger, CEO at NovaStor.
