Dear Forum Visitors,
For the past year Paragon Software has been working on a new product - a unique, open system, and completely stable point-in-time snapshot technology for Mac OS X.
A point-in-time copy of data, known as a "snapshot", is an ideal solution for complete and safe backup imaging, and has been in use on Windows-based operating systems for years. Paragon Software is preparing to make this technology available for Mac users with the introduction of its Snapshot for Mac OS X – now in beta testing.
Current backup solutions available to Mac users only back up individual files. Paragon created Snapshot for Mac OS X to give users a more complete solution, offering real-time protection for the whole system at the sector level. Snapshot technology combined with a sector level backup method enables complete system backup imaging and immediate recovery when required; the solution also supports open file backup (locked files) with the ability to back up a file that is open in the application it was created in.
The product is almost ready for market release and we want to offer you the Public Beta version. We do it because we want to make Paragon Snapshot for Mac OS X a useful tool for every Mac user -- that is why we need your opinion of it.
What we expect from you:
1. Bug reports (though we hope that there won't be many). If you find a bug, describe with details how it can be reproduced by our developers. We need every detail, every step (even if it seems minor). Please specify your Mac OS X version and disk configuration.
2. Usability issues. We want to make the product as easy to use as possible. Please share your suggestions on what you think we could improve in full versions or what should be changed. Make your suggestions both detailed and reasonable so we can understand what your concerns are as well as determine to implement if possible.
To download the public beta version, please visit this site to:
1. Download the beta version;
2. Get more information about the product’s main features;
3. Read the Beta Tester’s Guide.
Our commitment to you: We will read your feedback in this thread very carefully. Please excuse (in advance) any possible lack of replies to your posts. We won't be able to reply to all of them, but we will do “summary” replies once a day in this thread.
PS. We value this forum's community members very much. That's why we selected you for our Public beta testing program. In exchange for your help, we will be glad to provide the most active beta testers with Paragon Snapshot for Mac OS X free of charge.
Thank you in advance and best regards,
Paragon Software.
