BackupSheep

Excellent Platform for Automatic Backup to Servers and Website

Comments: My experience with BackupSheep has been very good, it is the solution I had been looking for to be able to automate the backup of all my servers and Website without the need to run it daily.I love the way it notifies me via email and/or Telegram when a backup fails.Its integration with more than 20 software makes life easier for us; software like MySQL, MariaDB, WordPress, DigitalOcean, Hetzner, Oracle, Amazon Lightsail, Dropbox, Wasabi, Google Drive, AWS, Blackblaze, OneDrive, etc.

Pros:

It allows us to automate Backup of our servers, Database and web pages in a simple way, without having to write a single line of code.The important thing is that you integrate BackupSheep with your server once so that BackupSheep performs a backup on the days and hours you want and then this works automatically for a lifetime.

Cons:

I am pro security and I would like BackupSheep to implement more Security functions in its Platform, for example, I would like them to include Encrypted Backups, to be able to put passwords on backups, Virus detection.

Good for Backing up the website

Pros:

Backupsheep is another option for me to backup my WordPress site. All it takes is one time setup to give you peace of mind. I would highly recommend this to anyone who needs backup for their website or database in a regular basis

Cons:

Setting up this software is a bit difficult, especially for non-techies. In the first place, I wasn't able to backup my database, and I need to contact support. I hope they will soon release a plugin for WordPress.

A must have tool for the peace of mind

Pros:

I use backupsheep to back up my WordPress websites. After it is set up, it automates everything and does an excellent job. No more worrying about losing data, no more manual backups.

Cons:

As a wordpress user, there is no one-click backup option. It requires two steps. Files and databases must be backed up separately. Also, the restore feature has yet to be implemented.

Does everything it promises

Pros:

I use backupsheep to set backup schedules for the websites. Its super easy and does the job well. Just Make sure you choose the right region for your backup.

Cons:

The application is good, but it lacks proper documentation. My server is based in Singapore. I chose North America as the region during backup, and the backup was extremely slow and had occasional errors. Once again, I selected Singapore as the backupsheep region and it worked just fine. The instructions should have included this information earlier.

A really good backup tool for server admin

Pros:

BackupSheep is a really good tool for server backup if your server has sftp access.

Cons:

I wish the backup can be initialized from the server rather than from BackupSheep control panel
