I haven't found Kies very useful and there are lots of negatives reviews around on it so persoannly I would never rely on it to backup my phone. The carbon backup app linked above is the best option as far as I'm aware. I 'think' it makes use of the native google backup option that app developers can choose to use but never do. The paid version allows you to backup to the cloud, the free one just to your sd card.
