WhatA consumer-friendly Mac backup solution that replaces Time Machine with reliable, incremental backups and easy file restoration.
SignalLong-time Mac users feel that Apple has abandoned Time Machine — backups corrupt regularly, forcing users to start fresh every few months, and the once-magical restore experience is gone, leaving a gap for a tool that just works without complexity.
