Ventis BackupSuite 2008 is a collection of applications that together form a backup system. This system can back up files to external hard drives, USB keys, local folders, network folders, CD/DVD media and FTP folders. Data encryption and compression can be achieved by selecting backups to be archived as Zip files. The three standard data repository models (full, differential and incremental) are supported. In addition to this, it is possible to make mirror backups. It is possible to search for backed up files and folders using wildcard characters ("*" and "?"). Another feature is that backup databases are handled like normal documents instead of having one central database (the vendor claims that it is safer to have many smaller databases than one big database containing all the backup information). The user interface resembles very much the user interface in Microsoft Office 2007.
