Once registered, SuperDuper allows you to schedule backups, quickly update backups with Smart Update (saving a lot of time), select copy modes other than Erase, then copy, create Sandboxes, fully customize the copying process using its unique Copy Scripts, save and restore settings, and avoid authenticating every time you copy.
