Overall Satisfaction with EaseUS Todo Backup

I chose and installed the Home version of this product and found it very easy to set up and run. Installation was quick and setting up the routine was simplicity itself. I don't currently have a NAS, so backup to a dedicated local HDD alongside a cloud backup solution. It's largely "fire and forget" in its operation, at least in my workflow.
  • It's easy to use for beginners. I found the UI to be straightforward and logical.
  • The software also runs in the Windows Pre-install Environment (Windows PE) if the machine crashes. Of course, you need to have backed up the drive first!
  • Backups from the whole OS down to single files is available.
  • Backup to CD/DVD, SSD and HDD are all supported.
  • Speed. The software can be a little slow, in my experience.
  • Backup to cloud services is not supported (on my version, anyway)
  • The background process slows down my computer.
  • There's been no financial ROI for this software, but the peace of mind is priceless.
EaseUs Todo Backup is an excellent product, on par with most other backup solutions. I actually use both EaseUs Todo Backup and IDrive, as a secondary backup system. IDrive stores my data in the cloud, so I have complete and up-to-date backups both locally and on the cloud. This is much safer than relying on just one backup copy.

Backups are such an essential aspect of modern-day computing, everyone should be making regular backups of their files, folders, and system. I found the software impressive in helping me transfer data from an old HDD to a brand new SSD. The help files guided me on the process I needed to follow and importantly, helped me understand WHY I needed to follow the steps it recommended. It all made logical sense once I understood it.

Using EaseUS Todo Backup

1 - Everything! Sales, design, development, finance, compliance. As such, my time is limited. Having a robust and reliable backup solution that I can set and forget for a while, is a valuable asset. Just having the confidence in knowing it's doing it's job, without me having to dive into the app to change or update the settings is extremely helpful, in my workflow.
1 - The software is very easy to use, so anyone with a general idea of how computers store files and folders will be able to use and support it. Most computer literate users will find that the UI for EaseUS Todo Backup helps guide them in the efficient use of the software. I don't think that a specialist user or specific training needs to be in place in order to get it running effectively.
  • Safeguarding against accidental loss of important data
  • Storing versions of files for later use
  • Storing versions of files to see how they have changed or been edited over time
  • Disk cloning
  • Migrating OS to a different hard disk or SSD
EaseUS Todo Backup is a superb software that does what it claims without the user needing a degree in computer science. Its plain user interface belies a lot of functionality that logically "guides" the user to making local and remote (cloud) backups of their important data. Additionally, the secure encryption of backups is just one less thing to worry about.
