Gotbackup is a tool for backing up your computer. Gotbackup will backup all user-created data on your Mac or Windows computer. (Please note that there is a 2,000 GB limit per computer; we've found that this limit is well above what most people need).
Gotbackup creates a mirror clone of the current state of your computer every hour (we call this a snapshot). Snapshots are kept for a year. This means that you can recover deleted files or old versions of files going back as far as 1 year. (Most people only give you 30 days of versioning)
The first thing to do is to install the application on your personal computer.

By default, Gotbackup will backup all user-created data on your computer after installation. If you want to change what gets backed up, you can do so from the app Settings.
Your data can be restored directly from the Gotbackup app. If you're trying to restore data to a new or formatted computer, you'll have to first install Gotbackup on the new computer.
You can follow the restore instructions here for details (requires signing in).
Because Gotbackup is end to end encrypted with your account password, restores are only possible through the app. We don't offer restores from the website or via physical hard drive shipment.
To transfer service from computer A to computer B, first, restore files from computer A to computer B (using Gotbackup; or other means if computer A hasn't been compromised). Then install Gotbackup on computer B and start a fresh backup.

We've done a few things to make us more trustable:
1) Gotbackup is developed and owned by a multi-million-dollar Internet Marketing and software development company called GVO (Global Virtual Opportunities) that has been in operation for more than 25 years.
2) We are end to end encrypted; we encrypt all computer data with your password that you created. If no one knows your password no one can ever see your data including the staff here at GVO.
If you have more questions, we'd be happy to answer them.
