Access backup software


We have a database that is in use 24/7, and does not get backed up by our
network backup software because it is always open. Does anyone have
experience with backup software specifically designed for Access which claims
to back up open Access databases? (One example is something called Access
Database Autopilot.) The pessimist in me tends to distrust such things.

We currently are asking the end user in charge of this db to kick everyone
out of the db every evening, turn off an automated process which also hits
the db, then manually make a copy of the db.
