MrBackup has a unique version control mechanism to ensure that multiple, complete data sets are backed up uniquely and separately from each other. This means that if any single backup turns out to be damaged, incomplete or unusable, it is still possible to fall back on earlier complete data sets of the same backed up data. The main advantage to this system is that in the event that the most recent backup can not be used, several previous versions still exist.
MrBackup guarantees at least eight (8) complete unique data sets. This means that if the data becomes corrupt due to software failure, user error, real-time data corruption or virus attack, MrBackup will still have several chronological complete unique data sets which may be recovered. This is the main difference between a true backup and a data security system such as RAID.
Standard Storage Profile (1y;3m;8d) Most clients opt for the Standard Storage Profile, with a history of backups composed of
- most recent uploads (eight)
- most recent month end uploads (three)
- most recent financial year end (one)
maintaining at least twelve (12) guaranteed unique and recoverable backups at any given time.
