Speaking of backups, did I mention that you must backup your backup? My favorite product for small business is called SecondCopy. If you have a large network, there are probably better options for you, but if you have a small office or home office network, then SecondCopy would be a great choice. You can check it out a www.secondcopy.com. Basically, it is a very affordable option to backup your computer.
Here is how I make it work for my office. Every night, ACT! makes a backup of my database to my hard drive. Sometime after that, SecondCopy goes to work. I have created a backup set and every night, that set gets copied onto my external hard drive. It only takes a few minutes because it is not backing up everything every night. It will only backup what has been changed. Not only am do I backup my ACT! Zip file, but I am backing up all the other documents on my hard drive.
The interface is very easy to manage. It produces nice reports and lets me know if there are any errors. All in all, I think it is a great product and would highly recommend it. Do you have any favorites for backups?
