Running Full backup and Log backups at the same time?

Can anyone tell me if SQL Backup 7 supports running FULL backups and log backups at the same time?
I read this was not possible in a previous version.

This is a very important feature, since you have a large DB to backup, not being able to execute log backups is not acceptable.

    Hi dreamtheater,

    Thanks for posting on the Redgate forums.

    SQL Backup 7.7 will run Full and log concurrently.

    On my local machine I setup a Full backup every minute with Log backups also every minute. The full log backup took 1 minute 30 seconds with Transaction log backups completed around 15 seconds. All backups were successful in this scenario. I hope this helps to answer your question.
    Kind regards,
