SuperDuper is the wildly acclaimed program that makes recovery painless, because it makes creating a fully bootable backup painless.
Its incredibly clear, friendly interface is understandable, easy to use, and SuperDuper's built-in scheduler makes it trivial to back up automatically.
SuperDuper is the most advanced, yet easy to use disk copying program available for OS X.
Clones, though, don't work very well when it's time to recover from an unexpecteddisaster. Unless you take specific steps, restoring a drive image restores everything on the drive, overwriting both the system and user files.
If that's what you want to do, great. But it's usually not, since all the work you've done since the backup would be lost!Clones for safety.To ensure you can safely roll back a system after the unexpected occurs, SuperDuper doesn't stop there.
With a few clicks, you can easily "checkpoint" your system, preserving your computer's critical applications and files while you run on a working, bootable copy. If anything goes wrong, just reboot to the original.
Its simple-but-powerful Copy Script feature allows complete control of exactly what files get copied, ignored, even aliased ("soft linked" for the Unix inclined) from one drive to another!SuperDuper is perfect for software developers, software "seed" sites, QA testers, even system administrators.
