Look No Further, This Is the One!

It's a great tool that's given me significant peace of mind. It has saved me from data loss a couple times already and I know I can depend on it to keep my databases backed up and protected without me thinking about it. I've been using it for about 2 years now and plan to continue to do so for the foreseeable future. Truly a great product all around.

PROS

SqlBak is very easy to set up and offers a variety of integrations and clients to connect to your servers which make it a breeze to get up and going regardless of what you are using. The web interface is very easy to use and understand. There's plenty of settings and customization without being overwhelming, and the available options for storing, encrypting, and moving data are fantastic! No matter your server, databases, or connection method, this has a solution for you.

CONS

I have nothing negative to note. I've had small issues with clients configuration on my part but I was able to reach out to support and quickly get it sorted without issues.

SQL Database Managed Backup and Disaster Recovery

From initial contact, development, and ongoing customer service, SQLBAK have been amazing.

PROS

I was tasked in finding a multi-site, multi-database backup tool that we could implement to 1000's of locations and give our operation a secure, managed, and safe database backup and recovery solution. SQLBak provides just this and in a simple but effective way.

CONS

There is nothing we do not like about SQLBAK.

Reasons for switching to SqlBak

Cost and features, we wanted to target the SQL database's and not whole system images.

Easy to use, reliable database backup

PROS

It's really easy to set it up. Easy to see that it is running and lets you know when it doesn't run for some reason. Very reliable and the backups are just in my dropbox folder so I can always get to them.

CONS

There are more capabilities than I had a reason to use.

Sqlbak on Linux and Docker

PROS

Scheduling of backups, support for diff and log backups for MSSQL, support for MSSQL on Linux, Docker support, wide support for backup destinations, quick responses from the customer support, clean and simple web UI

CONS

Sqlbak promotes, that it is very simple. And indeed this is true. But because of this also some options are missing, like e.g. templating for backup filenames, customizable backup folder structure, e-mail notifications in case of successful job runs, more sophisticated retention policies (instead of just x daxs/weeks) and some more useful features/options

Reason for choosing SqlBak

We chose Sqlbak over SQL Backup Master mainly because of it's support for Linux/Docker. We used SQL Backup Master before when we run MSSQL on Windows. From a feature-set/option-set point-of-view SQL Backup Master provides more options.

Backups made simple

Overall, I'm glad I went with SqlBak. We had a requirement that needed to be actioned quickly and it fit the bill.

PROS

Once installed, the ease in which we were up and running for scheduled backups was refreshing. Nothing was overly complicated and it looks like a lot of thought has gone into the process of creating a backup schedule.

CONS

The only con I can think of is is the documentation. The process is easy enough, but I wanted to do something a little more outside of the box and finding some reference to it wasn't as straight forward as the the application itself. The information is available, you just have to hunt a bit for it.

A Reliable Database Backup Service

I have used Sqlbak for months and it has saved me from data loss a few times.

PROS

It securely backs up my databases and server files on schedules. I can one-click restore backups in case there is a data loss.

CONS

Third-party cloud backup destinations require paid plans. In the free plan (Linux version), FTP is the only option for sending backups to remote storage.

Ease of use. does what it promises. Very happy experience

Am using it for multiple databases. it does fine job saving my backups to cloud.

PROS

Easy configuration and reliable reporting

CONS

I believe it should include a plugin for dotnet like a nuget library or something for seamless integration with code.

Reason for choosing SqlBak

Ease of use and price. Price was attractive for me in the first place. but after usage i believe it is much valubale than the cost
