Paragon Backup and Recovery
Paragon Backup and Recovery is a backup and disk imaging utility for macOS that creates point-in-time snapshots of an entire Mac system or selected files and folders. It performs incremental and full backups, allows restoration to the original location or alternate drives, and supports scheduled automated backups. The tool is aimed at users who want a straightforward one-click approach to system protection without managing complex backup policies.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionParagon Backup and Recovery was last actively updated in 2020, with no recent releases or clear updates since then. There is no confirmed native Apple Silicon build available. Given that Rosetta 2 will be removed in macOS 28 (late 2027) — less than 18 months away — you should contact Paragon Software to ask directly whether a native Apple Silicon build is planned for this product. If the vendor confirms they are no longer actively developing this tool, consider moving to a modern alternative like Artstudio Pro Backup, Time Machine (Apple's built-in backup which is already native), Carbon Copy Cloner, or Backblaze, all of which run natively on Apple Silicon and remain actively maintained. Time Machine in particular requires no extra software purchase if you have an external drive.
