Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: 1-6 months

Recommend Product: YES

The strength of this product is in its ability to show you exactly what is contained in any TimeMachine backup snapshot. As far as I know, this is the only utility that specifically does this, and for the most part it does it very well.

There's a lingering problem in 1.2 with respect to saving scans. I have a large TM set on my MacPro and have managed to crash the application. I anticipate that this is something that will be taken care of in subsequent versions. It's more of an annoyance than anything else, as scanning is not where the failure occurs, only saving the scans, which isn't a deal breaker.

1.2 also added QuickLook support, and I can't wait to see where this utility is headed - Great Start.

P.S. at 0.99 euros this is more "tipware" than "shareware" and I encourage anyone using this to chip in!
