Novosoft LLC, the developer of next-gen file backup solutions, introduced the hot imaging functionality of Handy Backup software. The new app release is to take system snapshots on the run.

ALLIANCE, OH, February 16, 2012

Novosoft, acclaimed software outsourcing developer and business intelligence service provider, announced hot hard drive imaging features for Handy Backup, the award-winning backup software. The new edition of the utility will have smart copying of hard drive partitions or the entire disk with optimized performance time, insignificant requirements for computer user experience, and minimum amount of steps to be followed. The new hot image backup function is created for Windows system, and simple hard disk imaging is also convenient for Linux OS.

"There are technologies which get a long-lasting reputation of a hard nut to crack. Hard drive imaging has earned one too. There were times when making a snapshot of a HDD needed those not so clear steps: logging off and in between several systems on a single computer, initiating low-level data saving instead of file-based backup, turning off all system activities, making a bootable flash drive to download from for imaging the original operating system, and so on. With the fresh Handy Backup featuring hot disk imaging, those are nothing but incubus of the former times, gone to oblivion" noticed Alexander Prichalov, the vice president of Novosoft Research Department.

The reported latest edition of the Handy Backup program provides hot image backup (http://www.handybackup.net/image-backup.shtml ) functionality. From now on the creating of a system HDD snapshot takes as small as choosing the "Disk image" point among "What to back up" choices in the utility interface, in a few clicks. No turning off Windows OS or shutting down the operating system processes are needed. The recovery image of the hard drive is created on the fly.

The hot hard disk imaging scheme arranged that way introduces improved performance time, minor requirements for PC user skills, and the least ever amount of steps to be made.

Besides the complete operating system image backup, the options are individual hard disk drive partitions and partition table.

The latest hot imaging is optimized for taking snapshots of Windows systems. Also, there is the usual functionality for imaging Ubuntu hard disks, with the Handy Backup Disaster restore bootable hard disk drive making. The program editions to feature hot imaging are Home Professional, Small Server, and Network Server.
