The downside of a bootable clone, of course, is that it probably isn’t going to be making clones every hour, the way Time Machine does. If your internal storage fails, you can boot from this device and keep running (possibly at reduced performance if it’s a slow device like a hard drive) while waiting to receive and install replacement storage (which might be a replacement computer if the storage is soldered to its motherboard). But when your internal storage fails, you can’t use it for anything other than a source for restoring your system to a new/replacement storage device.Ī bootable disk clone, on the other hand, solves that problem. Time Machine is a great system for its purpose - making hourly snapshots of a running system, stored on external storage. Klein has so far raised $300,000 from various investors and added an advisor from L’Oreal to the SuperDuper board.Both have their place, and IMO, both should be used as a part of a comprehensive backup solution. She’s also looking to raise $1 million in seed at the moment. Klein is going for user acquisition before launching a monetization plan for the app but said she has some ideas about sponsorships and subscriptions typical of the industry. According to SuperDuper this is a match, but Bel-Argus retails for $27, and Miss Piggy’s Big Number goes for a mere $9 at the corner market. SuperDuper will then pull up OPI’s Miss Piggy’s Big Number as the dupe. Select Chanel from a list of brands on the app and then choose the Bel-Argus color, for example. The app works by selecting the name brand nail polish you want to find the dupe for and then picking out the color you are searching for. “I’ve had execs from Estee Lauder and OPI and others and all of them say ‘of course all the products are the same’ and at the same time they can’t do that publicly,” Klein told TechCrunch. ![]() She couldn’t name names, but did say there were three main factories that make most of the color cosmetics for both high and low-end name brands. Certain industry experts send her the colors and tell her what the drug store dupes are, according to Klein. ![]() That’s where relationships come into play for SuperDuper. That’s a lot of leg work and doesn’t seem possible to scale. She paints a lot and tests everything in a different light to ensure that Sally Hansen red is the same as the NARS version. “How it looks in the bottle is not necessarily how it looks once the nail polish hits oxygen,” she said. Those using the app also send their recommendations to Klein, but she said those recs are often wrong. I’ve had execs from Estee Lauder and OPI and others and all of them say ‘of course all the products are the same’ and at the same time they can’t do that publicly. ![]()
