What is a Credit?
Credits Calculator - How many credits do I need?
RBackup Remote Backup software is licensed by the number of Credits used when the software is installed on end-user's computers. Installing Client software uses Credits on the server, depending on the edition of the Client software installed (see below.)
Credits are recycled automatically by the RBS Server. Adding new client accounts uses Credits from the Server. Deleting accounts returns Credits to the Server. Credits never expire, and never need to be renewed.
The Server Edition (Uses 4 Credits) backs up Windows Servers. It has all available features turned ON, including unlimited Exchange mailboxes, SQL Server, System State, Active Directory, and Sharepoint.
The Desktop Edition (Uses 2 Credits) backs up Windows desktop computers. It has all features turned on except support for Exchange, Active Directory and Sharepoint.
The Personal Edition (Uses 1 Credit) It is used only to back up simple user files from one internal hard drive. The Personal Edition has the limited features of software commonly used by the $5/month personal backup services. It has the following features turned off: Exchange, SQL Server, System State, Active Directory, Sharepoint, Bit Backup, Copy to Disk, Delete Files from Server, Advanced Interface, Mapped Drives, File Selection Interface, Multiple Backup Sets, Differential Backup, Keep Latest Version, Purge Files by Sets, and Local Mirror
Free Trial Accounts Distribute free trial accounts without depleting your paid Credits. Each RBS Server will add up to 50% of its available Credits to be used for Trial accounts. For example, a 400-Credit version allows 400 Credits for live (paid) accounts, plus 200 Credits for free Trial accounts. You may distribute any Client Edition as a trial.
Trial accounts are automatically suspended after a configurable 1 to 30 days. They are limited to a maximum of 10GB. Live accounts cannot be converted to Trial accounts. A Trial account can never have the same username as any previous Trial account. (To prevent abuse of trial accounts by end users.) At the end of the trial period a message displays on the Client computer, with a link to purchase an account. Trial Credits are added back to the Trial Credit pool.
