    Still use true image here, but haven't researched anything else in a
    few years.

    Veeam End Point Backup. Very capable software, and the best part is it's "free".

    Takes snapshot's, so it can ebe setup to have x number of them to roll back to. Can save the image
    files to a local drive, a shared directory or another place on the network.

    When saving to USB drive it can even disconect the drive from windows when the backup has been done.
    (Saves ransome ware scurge).

    If you're willing to pay, crashplan is awesome. It's cloud, but you can
    encrypt with your own keys..

    I'm afraid I'll never, ever trust any of my personal files to the cloud.

    Dude just drink the k00laid. I did and life is easy now. I don't care
    they read all my files, what difference does it make? They could get your files anyway.

    I hated uploading so many files to the cloud, but the stuff I would backup would be like my bbs install and maybe documents and software licences.

    I get the risk of people worrying about the cloud. Keep in mind you can setup your own encryption. So Crashplan won't even be able to decrypt your data...

    I like the idea, because if my computer crashes or my portable drives break, I'll always have a backup offsite. Think of it this way, most companies off load their backups to other sites, some of which are companies...
