With all plans suspended (paused) the software was still using between 50% and 90% of the CPU (Intel Core 2 2.13GHz).

In addition to the problem with the plans that stopped working I've also had he following issues with the software: After that their suggestion was (you've guessed it) delete all the plans and start again. After that they downgraded my Memeo version from Premium to Standard but the same thing happened.

I've had Memeo customer support do a remote access session on my PC to try to find the problem. To cut a long story short here I've done this 'start again' process at least 5 times now. Even after emailing the log files to Memeo support the response was delete all the plans and start again. I reported the problem again and was given the same response start again. However the same thing happened again a few days later. There are instructions in the forum for 'reactivating' a backup but these didn't work as documented so I deleted all my backups and started again. Not being offered any alternatives that's what I did. Now to me that doesn't sound like a solution, it sounds like a desperate measure. There's an active support forum for this product so I posted my problem and got a response from someone in Memeo support:ĭelete all the backup plans in the file system and start again. When I opened Memeo I found that all the backup plans had stopped working several days before. However after a couple of days I noticed that when I saved a file there was no longer a little pop up to say the file had been backed up. Away Memeo went merrily backing everything up. I created a few plans to backup everything I have on disk, documents in one plan, pictures in another…. So things were going well for me and my Memeo. You can also keep a number of copies of files, which is good for things like documents. After the initial copy has been made then Memeo runs in the System Tray and every time you save a file it gets backed up.

CPU usage during this process is very high, which is only to be expected really, so it's best to start this process at night or let it run over a weekend. Once you chosen the files to backup the Memeo goes off and makes an initial backup of everything you've selected. My Documents, My Pictures, My Music etc or you can select directories from the file system or you can choose files by their Tag. This you can do by selecting from a set of quick picks, e.g. You create backup 'plans' in which you decide where you want the backup files to go and then select which areas you want to backup. Functionally this software looks very good. Unfortunately the reality fell far, far short of the promise with software that functioned very poorly and support to match. This software seemed like a great idea – something that would automatically backup my files as and when they'd changed.
