The software gives you a graphical overview of how much space you’ve saved by compressing files

You can decide whether you want to save the backup Zip file to a folder on your computer (perhaps a second drive), a writable CD/DVD, a removable flash drive or even a folder on an FTP server...

You can view the contents of a Zip file in an Explorer-like fashion which makes it easier to view large Zip files that
contain several folders

WinZip 14 can be used as backup software. It comes with a Job Wizard that lets you pick folders to be backed up, the frequency of backup etc. Once a Job file is created you can run it by double clicking on the job (.wjf) file or schedule it to run on a daily, weekly (you can specify the day/days of the week and time at which the backup occurs) or monthly. The software can upload backups using an internal FTP client, or burn them to a writable CD/DVD. An automated e-mail notification can be set up so that you know when a job has been completed

The Job Wizard starts off by prompting you to pick the folders that you want to backup. It's powerful and yet easy to use

Try to delete a zip file and WinZip’s Explorer integration kicks in providing a partial (or full) listing of the file’s contents so that you can decide whether or not you want to delete it
