Product Testimonials

"The software (Backup for Workgroups) is fantastic by the way. Simple to setup, simple to operate. And it works :o)"
David, Sign Essentials

"First I must say - WOW! Very cool product. I read about your product in the Helm support forums. I gave it a try a few days ago and am very impressed."
David, Macrosystems

"Backup for Workgroups has simplified my life!!"
Carin, Lemont Bromberek CDS

"Just wanted to send a non-support, non-complaint email and let you know that 3.0 is a great improvement, my mirrors sync up in under 2 hours, which used to take 20+ hours.  I also wanted to get a quote from you guys to get the full version so that we can support your efforts in the future, and get some cool options along the way.  Thanks and keep up the good work!"
Kevin, City of Saratoga Springs

"Just want to say I love BFW ... saved my bacon about 4 times already, and I have only had it installed for a month! I shudder when I think what it would have been like finding tapes, and wrestling with BxxxxxExxx! uuugggh."
Jonathan, General Travel

"I love the program (Backup for Workgroups), it's saving me a big headache. I am just waiting to get my money back for the BxxxxxExxx program I hated and my reseller to handle the purchase for me. Thanks for making a great product!"
Erik, Ace Galvanizing

"Currently have 8 test clients + 1 SQL server backing up to the backup server... Everything has functioned as advertised."
Ron, Chemtech-Ford Laboratories

"I’m going to put in a recommendation to a vendor that they add Backup for Workgroups to their compatibility list.  So far, it has been a good solution for us."
Naji, Gold Systems

It has already proven itself several times with the ease of restoring several older revisions of a few files that got messed up. So much better than messing with tape! The user came to me in a panic because a file had been changed by someone else -- days ago -- and I was able to restore the last good version with minutes. BFW makes me look the part of the hero...   ;-)"
Doug, Knox Nursery

"I'm impressed with Backup for Workgroups.  It simply works.  I've had a lot of bad experiences with tape drives and this almost seems like cheating - it's too easy.  I've installed it at 3 clients and it seems to be working great.  After trying to install 100MB patches for (another product) I was ready for a change..."
Chip, Just Ask CS

"We have been very pleased with your software!"
Tom, Invotek

"I am an IT consultant and use your product (Backup for Workgroups) exclusively with my clients on Small Biz Server. We all love it."
Mike, Proxis Tech

"I want to let you know that I am very satisfied with the product (Backup for Workgroups); it is so easy to do backups and restore individual files. Your tech support department was also very helpful when I called them last week with a question.  Just call me a happy customer ... "
Angie, Carpenter Company

"I am so thrilled with the (Backup for Workgroups) software compared to what I was doing with tapes and the pricing is excellent.  I crunched the numbers and will be sending out a Purchase Order in the next day or two..." 
Carin, Lemont Bromberek CDS

"I’ve just been using Window Server Backup in the mean time and it’s causing nothing but headaches - so I’m eager to get Lockstep's Backup for Workgroups installed!"
Gavin, Inter-Tribal Health Authority

"I love your software. I will be buying it before my 30 days is up."
Richard S.

"Thanks for the product.  Rarely would I ever reply to a supplier with some positive feedback since it is usually negative or at best neutral, however Backup for Workgroups works great. The things that impressed me were:
- Right price
- easy to install and configure
- restores worked
- not overloaded with useless features
- perfect for the small/medium business market
Regards."
Neville B.

"I can't tell you how pleased I am with your product.  Truly, if you compare the time, energy and grief I went through using a tape backup with (brand V) and having to figure out on which tape was the generation of the item I wanted to restore vs. being able to just open the program and navigate to it and pick...well, I feel like you all have saved me literally days of time each month!  Plus, your personal support was so much quicker and easier to deal with!  And it worked!!!"
Juli, IEDA

"I'm writing for one simple reason: to compliment you and your team on a great product, Backup for Workgroups. It's not just a terrific backup product... it's a terrific example of what good software is: simple, straightforward, competent, and predictable.  Great backup software has to do two things: be incredibly easy and unobtrusive when backing up, and do a great job if called upon to restore. You get an 'A' on both."
Ridgley, Tapit Partners

"I look forward to working with you. You have an awesome product (Backup for Workgroups)."
Phil, DS-TS.com

"What a great piece of software (Backup for Workgroups)! Going to start selling it to my clients!"
Michael, M5 Systems

"Great product (Backup for Workgroups).  After only a day, I believe we’ll be purchasing this software for our 2 servers, and possibly a few workstation clients as well."
Bill, Atalasoft

"I want to say how excited I am about your product - I don't have to worry about the workstations that were turned off/unavailable during the full-backup day. With your product, a station can be offline for a week and BFW still retains all the backup and simply continues when the station joins again..."
Shah, Productive Software

"I set this (Backup for Workgroups) up over the weekend, and will have to say, it sure simplified my backups.  Great Program!"
Don, User Friendly Computer Services

"This product (Backup for Workgroups) is fabulous!"
Tony, InFuseWeb Hosting

Paul, Network Online Limited

"(Everyone at Lockstep) has been so friendly and so nice. Your product (Backup for Workgroups) solved a problem and helped my company grow."
Randy, The Computer Zoo.

"Backup for Workgroups is an incredible value, exceeding all out expectations for functionality and ease of use.  We struggled with DDS tapes and drive for months; setting up auto-changers, labeling tapes, storing them, hoping they would work when we needed to recover a file.  Once we tried Backup for Workgroups, there was no going back.  Our IT department couldn't believe that something so simple to use and aggressively priced as BFW could outperform our major-market tape and backup solution."
Eric, Crescent Industries, Inc.

"This (Backup for Workgroups) has definitely turned out to be the best software and software support I've seen in a long time.  It's great to have a company that really cares about their clients."
Wade, National Weather Service

"I like how easy the program is to use and the speed at which it takes to perform a backup."
John, USAF

"We had a tape drive failure.  The cost of Backup for Workgroups was less expensive then the hardware replacement cost and fixed my software problems in one fell swoop .  Unreliable tape backups make BFW the only reliable, reasonable choice."
Mark, City of Treasure Island, FL

"Thanks...  I'll say it again, 'great product' J"
Mike, Sunrise Systems Software

Tony, Daytona Net Works, Inc.

"Very impressed with the way the software works...  the scheduled backup now takes less than 1 hour overnight - a process which used to take all night using tapes! Tape drives and tapes were lasting only around 1 year, so it's win-win for me with Backup for Workgroups."
Steve, Meggitt Petroleum Systems

"Great software!"
Chuck,  Hastings and Prince Edward District School Board

Ben, Lateral Systems

"I just want to let you know how happy I am as a customer… everyone has done an excellent job, and I will recommend your product (Backup for Workgroups) and your company to everyone.  It’s hard to find a company that you can actually pick up the phone and call and on top of that to hear the nice personalities on the other side of the phone just blows me away."

"We’ve been very impressed ... with your entire company’s sales/support structure – it’s refreshing to actually get a live person on the phone who has a personality!  We looked at a number of packages that were extremely expensive and unnecessarily complicated for our needs.  However, one of your sales people they gave us the idea of swapping out external drives on a regular basis, which met our needs perfectly.  Thanks for a great product, and keep up the good work!"
Christopher, MEMSense, Inc.

"Just a quick email to say thank you very much for sorting this out for us so quickly on Friday.  It makes a refreshing change to deal with a company that is so efficient, with staff that are friendly and helpful.  Maybe if other companies took a leaf out of your book then I wouldn't end up being so stressed at the end of the day!  Thanks again."
