Security company BullGuard is keen to protect you from all threats, including the threat of losing important data. To do so, the company offers a user friendly and very efficient data backup solution: BullGuard Online Backup. A wizard will help you create backup profiles so you can efficiently back up your important data to the location of your choice. Should an accident occur, the application will restore your data.

As expected, a setup wizard will help you install BullGuard Online Backup on your Windows-powered machine. You will also have to create an account to get started with the application. Both these processes, the installation process and the account creation process will require little time and little effort to be completed.

There are five buttons in the upper right hand side of the application’s simple interface:
Home – displays a large Status button and a large Backup button.
Dashboard – you can use this button to select a profile, edit it, manage your backup data, restore data, view backup logs, and see how much online storage space your backups are taking up.
Settings – set it so the application runs at startup, password protect important settings, change the user, and access a few other options.
Support – send an email, browse help topics, live chat with the support team, and access your personal BullGuard account.

A wizard will help you create a backup profile (that’s the term used by BullGuard, but you could just as well refer to it as a backup job). The aforementioned wizard will take you through the following 4 steps:
Step 1 – choose the type of data that will be backed up. Backup documents, photos, music, videos, emails, your desktop, other files or folders.
Step 2 – chose where to back up the data. You can back it up online, on a CD or DVD, or to an external storage device (HDD, USB, or network).
Step 3 – choose when to start the profile you’re creating. Start it manually, start it when the computer is idle, start it whenever files change, or set up a schedule and start it based on that schedule.
Step 4 – access a few backup settings: sync backup, compress backup, encrypt backup, keep several versions of files.

You can choose to back up your data to a DVD, to a USB stick, or to the web. It is more convenient to go with the last option. You see, once the data is uploaded, you can easily access it from any internet connected PC. BullGuard gets you started with 10GB of online storage space, but you can always upgrade your subscription and get more space.

BullGuard Online Backup is free to use for a limited period of time.

Securely back up, securely store, and securely access your data. These and other useful features are provided by the properly good application BullGuard Online Backup.

Pros

Installing BullGuard Online Backup and creating a BullGuard account will take little time. You will quickly figure out the application’s interface. A wizard will help you create a backup profile. You can back up data to multiple locations. You have 10GB of online storage space. Data backed up online can be accessed from anywhere just by logging into your BullGuard account.

Cons

Free to use for a limited period of time.
