First off, this is a truly KILLER app. I’ve read your pricing plans of $20 per user… I would gladly pay more!
I have installed this on numerous client systems to automatically backup their systems… It’s a no brainer. I’ve been keeping a list of them all so they can purchase the licensed version when it’s available. They’re all VERY happy as am I. One thing I would LOVE to see in a future version is multiple bucket mappings with unique encryption keys for each all in one instance of JD. I’m thinking of the virtual office scenario with several remote employees needing various levels of access (staff drive, management drive, etc.).
Keep up the fantastic work guys!!!

The version check request is done on port 80 by default, but will use a secondary server and port 8001 if the first request fails. You shouldn’t have any issues blocking port 8001.

I just found out the application uses port 8001 to connect to your server to obtain the license key. Could you change this to connect to a web service running on port 80 instead? I would prefer block the port for outbound traffic through a firewall for security reasons.

A U3 version has been requested a few times before, and is definitely on the “future” list.

With the proposed “Optional web-based access to files” I would like to see a “U3″ version (extra cost?) so as to make that as simple/transparent as possible and leave no traces at all on the used computer.

Love the software so far, day one and I am IMPRESSED!

One request for your roadmap, make the upload speed configurable by time, not just a static KB. For example, during the day I want to throttle the bandwidth used as I am activly using the Internet for work. However, at night when I am not working I would rather saturate the pipe and increase the amount of data moved.

Fantastic software. Simple and quietly runs in the background backing up 6 gigs of music and files for me. I am sufficiently impressed, that I look forward to the day you charge me, so that I know you will continue to be around and improving.

Future plans look great!

There is a subtle but significant difference between archiving and backing up. Need to provide for this in menu for novice users. I have seen valuable documents overwritten in error in the past.

Backup auto maintains an accurate (almost) realtime offsite image of my live data. But I may want to archive other folders and files off site, but not change their content under any circumstances, unless by manual intervention or version management.

Backup, and drag & drop does for now.

Keep up the good work! and keep it simple to use!
