GBM Pro 8.0 is a reliable and robust backup and data recovery solution yet combines ease-of-use and user-interface consistency - containing everything under one roof. Genie Backup Manager Pro 8.0 is ideal for the computer user who requires additional features not present in Genie Backup Manager Home 8.0.

Genie Backup Manager Pro 8.0 has the power, flexibility and is feature rich to suit single system users to multiple systems within small businesses over LANs and for use in SAN, and NAS backups, resource sharing scenarios and backing up to removable media devices such as USB, REV disks, floppy diskette, all types of optical media remote location using FTP, and tape drive media and online backups using Ajax-based backup technology to Genie Online Backup storage servers. Genie Backup Manager Pro offers better data management and greater data availability than ever before.

• Disaster Recovery - Regain access to your data, hardware and software and resume personal and critical business operations once a data loss scenario occurs. Never again should data loss due to computer viruses, Trojan horses or malware infections, system and/or equipment failure, power outrage, robbery, fire, natural disaster, security breaches, terrorist attack, human error, organized or deliberate disruptions, and illegal programs, be an issue. With Genie Backup Manager’s enhanced PE technology, which also supports Windows Server 2003 and Windows Vista, you can perform your DR backup plan. It is also possible to perform your DR backup plan online.
• Online Backup - Keep your data out of danger by remotely using Genie Online Backup to backup to, and restore from, using an encryption strength of 128-bit over a Secure Socket Layer (SSL) for data transmissions. Enhanced features allow you to easily view, manage, and delete your online backup storage. Added bandwidth throttling controls how much internet bandwidth GBM uses during uploads etc. Improved connectivity enables auto resumes when a connection is lost but then returns.
• Backup Media - Backup to virtually any removable media device such as USB, REV disks, floppy diskette, all types of optical media, tape drive media. Also back up to remote locations using FTP and Genie Online Backup storage servers using Ajax-based backup technology. Genie Backup Manager Pro offers better data management and greater data availability, LANs and for use in DAS, and NASbackups, and resource sharing scenarios.
• Secure - U.S. government-certified Advanced Encryption Standard (AES: 128-, 192-, 256-bit) encryption security is available, as well a Zip archive password protection.
• Backup locked & open files - End users, network and system administrators are becoming acutely aware that their current backup software solutions are failing at the very thing they were purchased to do: backing up the most critical data in their organization and desktops. The reason for this backup failure is that the most important files created, files changing regularly and in use by business-critical applications performing important functions on this data cannot be interrupted. To a lesser degree this can be the case for personal users as well. To overcome this shortcoming GBM Home, Pro and Server editions provides built-in open/in use and locked file backups via Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, and Windows Vista Volume Shadow Copy service (VSS) technology. No additional applications or plug-ins are necessary. However, Genie-soft’s powerful add-on supersedes many of the limitations still present using Windows VSS technology. So if you need the extra functionality, try Open File Backup (OFB), especially if you intend to backup open files across different types of network infrastructures. This aids in business continuity or continuance (BC).
