I find this to be a very stable, reliable and easy-to-use backup program, with good documentation. While it doesn't do clones (duplicates of your hard drive) it is very useful for User folders and/or system and application preferences, Mail, etc, and is therefore an excellent value for someone who is looking for a basic backup. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.
VBVB is confusing iBackup with iBackup - Version: 6.6, 2/28/2009 12:58PM PST

One (the one here) is a standalone free Mac backup application. it does not do encryption or compression as far as I know. The other, at ibackup.com, is an online for-a-fee backup service with a Mac helper application. Confusing, to be sure.

It doesn't do the encrypting I set it to do. Under OSX.5.2. It doesn't do any encrypting at all as far as I could see. Nothing happened. Looks like it copies every file without altering even one bit in them. And everything completely in the clear. So no compressing – i.o.w. no space saving – and no security. That makes the 'backup' useless for secure offline, off premises storage under third party control/access (a buddy's RAID system).
So, bottomline: for me iBackup didn't do ANYTHING it said it would . . . !
iBackup wasted my time.
And since Time Machine also doesn't accomodate encrypted standalone backup files, Carbon Copy Cloner is still the champ here. Let's hear it for old faithfull!!!
