Dantz Retrospect 7 Professional review:
2 stars (difficulties with Retrospect 7) - I bought Retrospect because of the review in PC magazine. However, it is difficult to use because it uses jargon that I didn't know and which wasn't fully explained early in the manual. I wanted a backup program that would help me if my hard disk crashed, and I'm not sure that this program supplies that. After doing the backup, the program prints out a few sheets that one is supposed to use in case of disaster. Being reluctant to test such a scenario, one is left with a large uncertainty.
5 stars (Pleased) - I found this product to be very well done. It is a bit of overkill for a home user, but well worth the price. I would recomend it to any user from home user on up.
3 stars (Retrospect Back-Up) - Most importantly, USE DVDs to back-up - took way too long & more than 25 CDs. And, now, I'm kind of lost of how and when to edit or update my back-up. I was prompted by David Lawrence (WGN radio) to purchase & install, but for a home personal computer, I think that this is just too much. The $$$ was a bit high, but the labor, CDS, time and confusion was just WAY TOO HIGH. Not real satisfied. Linda Hoffman, Mokena, Illinois
