   Retrospect 15.0

   Agen G. N. Schmitz

   Retrospect Inc. has released [1]Retrospect 15, a major new release of
   the backup software that introduces email protection and the BackupBot
   artificial intelligence (AI) feature. Retrospect 15 can back up IMAP
   email accounts to a local or cloud destination, restore a lost email or
   account, and help to migrate from one service to another more easily.

   With [2]BackupBot, Retrospect can create an entire backup strategy for
   all available sources to a selected destination in a single click. It's
   also more intelligent at scheduling backups to optimize the backup
   window, and is better at predicting future storage needs. Retrospect 15
   also introduces Data Hooks (extensible dashboard plugins that provide
   data on all aspects of the backup process) and remote backups.

   Retrospect 15 is priced at $49 for [3]Retrospect Solo (which protects a
   single non-server computer and its external hard drives) and $119 for
   [4]Retrospect Desktop (which covers one non-server Mac and up to five
   additional Windows, Mac, and Linux computers). You can upgrade to
   Retrospect 15 from versions 13 and 14 at a reduced price (check your
   upgrade price by entering your license into [5]this wizard). If you
   have a currently active [6]Annual Support and Maintenance (ASM)
   agreement, your upgrade is free. ($49 for Solo and $119 for Dekstop
   new, upgrade pricing available, 189 MB, [7]release notes, 10.6.8+)
