We've all been through it...everything is running fine until suddenly a computer crash changes everything. With BounceBack Ultimate, if disaster strikes, YOU are in control, You have flexibility, YOU have options.

Instant PC Recovery™

Instant PC Recovery saves precious time. With BounceBack Ultimate you can choose to keep working by starting your PC in CMS’s patent pending Instant PC Recovery™ mode. Instant PC Recovery mode allows you to startup and run applications; access the Internet, or even run your business applications so your customers don’t suffer.

Two-Click Recovery ™

When you are ready to fix whatever computer problem you may have had, click the Two-Click Recovery button while in Instant PC Recovery mode to launch a full restore from your external hard drive. You can rest assured your recovery will be swift because BounceBack‘s Continuous Data Protection ensures frequent incremental backups are being made, keeping your important and irreplaceable data current.

Immediate Access To Your Files

BounceBack Ultimate backup software allows immediate access to your data on your external hard drive from any working PC because BounceBack saves files in native file format. There are no applications to load, no utilities to unzip or uncompress from the backup. You simply browse the external hard drive as you normally do to locate and access your files. Now you can move on to more important things.

Always Up To Date

BounceBack Ultimate backup software includes Continuous Data Protection (CDP), keeping newly created or modified files or installed applications and system settings backed up.

Keep Sensitive Files Secure with Encryption

BounceBack Ultimate backup software includes powerful AES 256-bit encryption so you can be sure any sensitive data that you back up to an external hard drive remains completely secure. The security features in BounceBack Ultimate are intuitive and very easy to set and forget.

Backup To Multiple Destinations

To make your backup strategy even more powerful than having a spare hard drive, you can now backup copies of your files to a network drive or other externally connected hard drive at the same time simply by enabling the Parallel Backup feature when you configure your backup settings.

Synchronize Data Between Work and Home

With BounceBack's Synchronization features enabled, it’s very easy to transfer your most up to date files onto an external backup hard drive, and then copy the files to another computer while you work on them, then synchronize the changes to your work computer the next time BounceBack Ultimate is run at the office. No more lugging around a laptop between work and home, you can simply take your backup drive with you and keep it all up to date using BounceBack Ultimate Synchronization.

Maintain Point in Time Versions

With BounceBack Ultimate it’s never been easier to have complete and total control over which version of a file you choose to restore. BounceBack Ultimate includes a powerful versioning function which enables you to keep several versions of the same file backed up, and restore specific versions from a point in time backup from inside the QuickRestore™ window.

1. Does BounceBack Ultimate backup software support Instant PC Recovery using USB on all computer models? - BounceBack Ultimate will support Instant PC Recovery in most cases, however, some older model computers that do not offer the USB as an available bootable device port from within the system BIOS are not supported. Users should check with their system manufacturer on compatibility with external USB bootability.

2. Does BounceBack Ultimate backup software create an IMAGE backup? - No. BounceBack Ultimate saves the files from your computer in native file format, just as they are currently saved, without compression or any modification. The primary advantage here with Native File Format is you can access your files from any working computer simply by browsing the contents of your backup drive.

3. If my hard drive gets infected with a virus will BounceBack Ultimate prevent infection on my backup drive? - No. Users should make sure they are protecting their computer with a current version and frequently updated anti-virus program. Preventive measures can be taken by scheduling incremental backups at longer periods, or alternating backups between two backup hard drives.

4. What's the difference between GHOST or Image type backup and BounceBack Ultimate? - Backup programs that create an IMAGE of a hard drive are creating a compressed "point in time" backup. If you restore an Image backup, what you will get is a representation of the data at the time it was backed up. To this, you would need to append any incremental data that may have changed since the Image was created, . BounceBack Ultimate works slightly differently. If you make a full system backup today, then change files tomorrow, and backup again the day after that, BounceBack Ultimate will append only what has been modified or added since you backed up, including newly installed programs or changes to your Operating System. If you perform Instant PC Recovery using BounceBack Ultimate, the recovered hard drive would be considered much more current than if you had created an Image backup weeks or days ago.

5.Will BounceBack Ultimate backup onto CD's or DVD's or tape? - Not at this time. BounceBack Ultimate is designed specifically for hard drive type backup. CD's and DVD media can become unreliable if not handled with extreme care.

6. Is Instant PC Recovery the only way to do disaster recovery using BounceBack Ultimate? - No, there are actually three methods that can be used assuming you have performed a successful full system backup.

1. Instant PC Recovery - start your system from the external backup drive. You can run from this mode until you are able to either fix the problem on your primary drive, or perform a full system recovery to either a replacement hard drive, or to the existing hard drive if it is in working order.
2. CMS Rescue CD - We include a Rescue CD with all CMS ABSplus backup systems, and also offer the Rescue CD with CD/Box copies of BounceBack Ultimate. Start your computer with Rescue CD in the CDROM drive and invoke the boot from CD. Following the on screen prompts, Rescue will connect to the external hard drive or CMS ABSplus backup drive and perform a byte for byte restore from external drive onto the internal drive.
3. Drive Swap - All CMS ABSplus backup systems are designed to easily come apart. With this method you would remove the disc drive from the enclosure and install it in your computer, replacing the damaged or corrupted hard drive. Your computer should boot up as normal and include all recently backed up data, programs and system settings.

7. What Operating Systems does BounceBack Ultimate run on? -

BounceBack Ultimate will install and run on Vista 32, Vista 64 and Windows XP. We do not support Windows 2000 or Windows 98.

8. What's the difference between BounceBack Ultimate and BounceBack Essential?

BounceBack Ultimate is our full featured backup and disaster recovery program. It includes the following additional features not found in BounceBack Essential:

QuickRestore, Backup Set Creation, Parallel Backup, File Synchronization, File Versioning and Data Encryption.

BounceBack Ultimate also includes a CMS Rescue CD for performing full system recovery in cases where Instant PC Recovery are not successful.

9. Is BounceBack available for Mac or is it just Windows backup software?

BounceBack Ultimate is the current Windows release which supports Windows XP and Vista Operating Systems. We also offer BounceBack Professional on the mac side which includes similar functions to BounceBack Ultimate. With BounceBack Professional for Mac it is possible to startup your Mac directly from an external hard drive. BounceBack Professional also backs up files in native file format so the files are always easily accessible from any working computer.

10. What are the advantages of hard drive backup compared to online backup?

Hard drive backup software programs like BounceBack allow faster access to your backed up information in the event of computer trouble. If your computer has had a significant malfunction that prevents connection to the Internet, it may not be possible to gain access to your online backup easily, however, with BounceBack Ultimate, all of your files are stored on the hard drive in easy to access native file format, so you can get back to work right away. With BounceBack's Instant PC Recovery mode, you can even run your computer directly from the external hard drive, a feature not found in other backup programs, particularly not in online backup offerings.

Hard drive backup is more economical than online backup. If you subscribe to an online backup service, over time, your monthly subscriptions can add up, particularly if you are backing up the entire hard drive online as most online backup services charge for additional bandwidth. External hard drives can be an extremely cost effective option. Creating a hard drive backup using BounceBack Ultimate can bring you both cost savings in addition to Instant PC Recovery, quick relief from any computer malfunction.
