Automatic File Backup Made Easy

Select your storage location, run the one-line install command on your server and confirm the auto-detected settings for the database credentials and backup jobs to be created. The whole process can be as simple as 4 clicks and one CLI command.

When creating backups, sensible defaults are used to save time on configuration. If you'd like to change the settings or schedule of your automated backup process, you can edit them individually to your liking.

We offer our own server space for your online backup at a small cost and also support Amazon S3, Google Drive, Dropbox and Backblaze. Our compression enabled backups also help you save on storage space and data transfer times.

The installation script automatically installs your SSH Key, software dependencies, detects your user, IP address, SSH port and home directory, then verifies the SSH connection from our servers.

For advanced users who prefer to manually specify server information and not use the script, we support that workflow as well.

Should you need to access a backup database, the recovery process is quick and easy. You can select the backup you want to restore and the server and database name you'd like to restore to.

You can even restore to a different server on your account or to a database that doesn't currently exist. This makes it extremely simple to test previous backups, or to migrate your data from one server to another - especially important if your primary server is damaged or offline.
