NOTE: If you have an older version and want to upgrade please note that version 8 installs separately from the previous versions (doesn't overwrite those). It will also offer a way to import backup jobs from other detected versions. Upgrading from previous older versions (i.e. 7.x, 6.x) is not free, upgrade discounts apply.

As of October 2022 we have disabled hubiC as a cloud destination because the service was discontinued by its parent company.
