out of 10
- The good: Restores files and system settings to a specific date; thorough data-integrity verification during backups; supports tape drives and CD and DVD writers.
- The bad: Slower than many lower-end backup programs; interface is confusing at times.
- The bottom line: Retrospect is a meticulously thorough backup app that's sure to please small-business users, but it may be overkill for home users.

Intro of Dantz Retrospect Professional 6.0
If Dantz Retrospect 6.0 for Windows had a motto, it would be: Accuracy over speed. This feature-rich program isn't the fastest backup app on the market--particularly when compared with home-oriented competitors such as Handy Backup and WinBackup--but its thorough archival routines ensure your data is stored correctly. Like Roxio GoBack and similar rollback utilities, Retrospect also allows you to restore system settings to a previous state, but like NTI Backup Now Deluxe, it goes one step further by restoring every file and folder on your PC. Street-priced at about $80, Retrospect 6.0 is best for small businesses that can't afford to lose a single bit of data when their hard disks spin to a halt.
