Retrospect: Scripts

Scripts are at the core of Retrospect. Every script includes a set of sources, destinations, filters, schedule, and options, allowing you to build detailed data protection strategies that are specific to your business.

1-Click Backup

With one click, BackupBot will automatically configure a Proactive script with all available sources to a selected destination. An entire backup strategy in a single click.
Weekly Server Backup

You can set up a script to back up your server every week, either at a fixed time or whenever it's available.
3-2-1 Backup Rule

Every good backup strategy follows the 3-2-1 backup rule–3 copies of your data with 2 media types and 1 offsite–and Retrospect Backup makes it easy. When something bad does happen, just click Restore.

Powerful Filtering

To include or skip specific files, folders, and volumes, or to back up only specific data to cloud storage, Retrospect includes both built-in and user-definable selectors that filter data based on a multitude of conditions, including file names, dates, and types.
Flexible Destination

Retrospect supports most types of magnetic media for backup, including hard disk drives, network-attached disk, cloud storage, flash media, and every major tape format.
Fine-Grained Scheduling

Backup, copy, archive, and restore operations in Retrospect can be scheduled to meet any agenda.
Cross-Platform Support

Heterogeneous networks are protected using Retrospect’s native client software, ensuring perfect backups regardless of operating system.
