“For the fourth consecutive year, BRU(TM) Backup & Restore
Utility from Enhanced Software Technologies, Inc. (EST) was awarded
the Linux Journal Reader’s Choice Award for Favorite Backup
Utility. Linux Journal added the category in 1996 and BRU has
been the winner each year since the category’s inception. Winning
the award is important to EST because it confirms that people use
BRU, they like BRU, and they are willing to take the time to place
their votes for BRU.

“I believe winning this prestigious award four years running is
a reflection of our commitment to provide the Linux community with
reliable software that works,” said Ted Cook, President and CEO of
EST. “We thank the users who voted for BRU and promise to continue
delivering the quality and richness of product people have come to
expect from us.”

“For the fourth year in a row, the readers of Linux Journal have
proclaimed BRU, Backup and Restore Utility, from Enhanced Software
Technologies, Inc. the Best Backup Software for Linux. We feel our
readers made the right choice. BRU is dependable software that you
can rely on to save your data. We certainly do,” Marjorie
Richardson, Editor in Chief, Linux Journal.”
