We did daily backups to a second machine keeping the last 3. When it corrupted itself we copied it all back. I liked sourcesafe. It was kind of cool the way it worked and integrated into all the MS tooling we used at that time. Plus it was decently cheap enough for a small inhouse group of devs to afford. Its semantics for usage were very straightforward and easy to learn. BUT it was a pain for how it would corrupt itself randomly. That 'one' bug is why no one dares use it today and hates the thing. To this day because of how easy it was to use I compare the UX of all other source controls to it.
