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.
PROSSqlBak 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.
CONSI 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.
PROSI 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.
CONSThere 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.

Sqlbak on Linux and Docker
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
CONSSqlbak 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.
PROSOnce 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.
CONSThe 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.

I have used Sqlbak for months and it has saved me from data loss a few times.
PROSIt securely backs up my databases and server files on schedules. I can one-click restore backups in case there is a data loss.
CONSThird-party cloud backup destinations require paid plans. In the free plan (Linux version), FTP is the only option for sending backups to remote storage.

PROSEasy configuration and reliable reporting
CONSI believe it should include a plugin for dotnet like a nuget library or something for seamless integration with code.
Reason for choosing SqlBak
