Among the most important features required of a backup software, there are definitely notification and reporting functions. Iperius Backup allows you to be always aware of the status of your backup, as it can automatically send an e-mail after each backup or only in case of errors. The backup can be scheduled at specific days and times and you can keep an history of all backup operations performed.
