App received a 2 out of 5
Pros: DataMirror 2.5 has a well designed UI that offers multiple backup profiles and good auto backup selection*.
Cons: This program has a lot of bugs! None of the links to start the program worked. The application window flickers while running. I was unable to delete backup profiles even though the software has a delete button for the profiles. The real time sync didn’t sync in real time.
Other Thoughts: This software has real potential. The UI when it works is one of the best I’ve seen. There is almost no reason to look at the help file, which is good since the link to it in the start folder doesn’t work. *The “idea” of setting up a profile to sync your backups in real time is an excellent option, but since doesn’t work it’s still an idea. Also the fact that I had to manually link the desktop and start folder icons to the .exe file is not a good sign of reliability. At the end of the day the backup software you use has to work and this software has too many bugs for me to recommend it to anyone.
