Backing up your files is an important task for any business, because data loss results in financial loss. While you can use online services, most security experts recommend keeping at least one local copy of your files. Genie Timeline Pro 10 helps you make those backups with minimal effort.

Made for Windows, this powerful utility lets you configure automated backups in three easy steps, but it also has plenty of advanced features. Lifetime access is normally priced at $179.95, but you can get a license for three devices for only $59.99 today at TechRepublic Academy.

Rated at 4.5/5 stars on the Play Store, Genie Timeline Pro 10 is one of your best defenses against data loss. In just minutes, you can set up an automated backup schedule that fits around your work day. The software can handle most file types, with easy versioning and smart selection for specific types of data.

When Genie Timeline runs, it quietly duplicates your hard drive in the background. You won’t notice any slowdown when it’s running, and the software delivers notifications to keep you updated on its progress. Just as importantly, this backup tool applies military-grade encryption to keep your backups secure. Even if someone gets hold of your external hard drive, they’re not going to access your private data.

This deal gives you lifetime access to the software on three devices. The license is worth $179.95, but you can grab it today for only $59.99.
