Backup Software to Dropbox
Dear Experts,
I have purchased the Kaspersky Small Office Security and I have tried to use the built-in up for Backup/Restore.
I have a W2K8 R2 Server and a shared folder of 70GB in size, I have created a task in order to perform Daily
backup to the Cloud using my Dropbox account.
Unfortunately the backup task fails to complete and it seems that this built-in software is for basic use.
Could you please advise a software for performing backup to Dropbox at a reasonable price?
Please also note that the software should support incremental backups and an email notification feature is also welcome.

Thanks for your reply. Kaspersky will directly connect to your Dropbox account. We do not use the Dropbox app for Windows.

Thanks I will try this one.
Any other app similar to Syncovery? in order to compare the products and find the best one?

If you doing full system backup, software needs to create system snapshot and move it over to external location.
Since Dropbox is installed on local drive this will not work.
You can try to go to Dropbox / Sync and Move location of your Dropbox folder to different drive, like D: or E: or network location, then you can try run your backup again.
I assume that capacity of your dropbox folder in Cloud is big enough to handle whole system backup
