Novosibirsk, Russia -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/20/2011 -- Novosoft, an international software development and IT consultancy company, announced the release of a new version of Handy Backup. The program presents features (automatic registration and remote installation over Active Directory among others) to help system administrators configure backup plans for windows networks.

"Want me to tell you a secret of success in software development? I personally doubt there are "magic" formulas, but here is a thing that proved to be solely efficient: explore various applications of your concepts. Take Handy Backup. One of the major concepts for its development is simplicity. According to that strategy some time ago we reworked the interface maximally simplifying it. As we did, there was an immediate response from home users, who turned out to totally like the new view.

Although, what about our another stable key customer group, system administrators? It is not sufficient for them to see a plain interface (sometimes they on the contrary prefer more details displayed by default, as our research pointed out). They need something more, and in the latest version we are happy to give them the simplicity adapted to their unique needs, the simplicity of configuring a backup in a Windows network", said Alexander Prichalov, the head of Novosoft Development Department.

The newly released version of Handy Backup features the simplicity of setting up a Windows network backup. This practically involves automatic registration, silent installation, and remote installation over Active Directory.

The automatic registration makes it possible to launch the installation package the way the program is registered on the very first startup.

The installation now might be performed in a silent mode with no setup dialogs displayed. Besides that the new version takes advantage of the Active Directory providing an opportunity to install Handy Backup remotely by creating and applying the respective Group Policy on a network.

Traditionally, the new version features an optimized graphical interface, integration with cloud storage service, opportunity to create bootable recovery drives to load the system from after a failure, and Windows 7 compatibility.
