BackupSheep Reviews & Product Details - Page 2

A few hiccups with scheduled backups when they switched data centers, but we were notified right away and just had to reassign the storage and we were good to go. Backups run like clockwork! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Would be nice if they integrated with Encryptedwork for storage Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I've been using BackupSheep for several months now and I'm extremely impressed with its ease of use and reliability. The software is intuitive and makes scheduling automatic backups for my servers, websites and databases a breeze. The software is very stable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Connecting databases can be challenging for non-technical users. Just ask Bilal and the team; they will for sure help you out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I can use it and receive notifications of a backup failure. All my websites from a central backup dashboard. It is incredibly integrated with the updraftplus plugin. I love it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would like it if one could already restore backups and migrate websites from the backupsheep dashboard, but in all honesty it is just a convenience. The system is already fully functional. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have sites hosted on several servers inexpensive plans that do not auto backup. I use updraft plus but I needed a second backup and backup sheep is exactly what I needed, ftp login lets me backup the whole account and store it on the cloud. Plus I get notifications if it fails and when it goes through. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Getting to learn the interface was the only difficult part, but that literally takes about 10 minutes to learn. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I recommend it to anyone who wants to ensure that their website or web application has a backup. We use it in our business to backup all of our websites, web application and databases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The wordpress plugin recovery issue when the version of PHP is different. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This product does one thing and i does it well. If you have Updraft plus, it allows you to backup your site off server, like google drive. It did save me as the whole server got wiped. But my backup was safe in GDrive.

Dont expect it to be a full solution replacing Updraft, its complimentary, and extra step of guarantee that your backup wont be lost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not a full solution. Needs Updraft but its fine as you can use the free tier of Updraft and it works perfectly Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

BackupSheep made changes in the plans sold to AppSumo users, but they have now reversed that change so my review needs to be changed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Thank you for listening to the buyers of the deals. I will get back to using the app and will see how it goes here out. I do believe the backup program is a good one, but the reason I had purchased was because of the unique offering of this particular plan. I appreciate the quick turnaround.

The concept is good. Backups are agnostic of the application, be it WP or a custom application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I do not write reviews but I am so frustrated at this moment that I have to so that people are aware of what they are getting into.

My backups are failing since the 2nd of August. Today, it's the 16th.

They were working fine before that since the time I had set it up(months).

There are no error messages(proof https://d.pr/i/1dQtMH), nothing in the log(proof https://d.pr/i/63IS48)

The backups started failing since the time they moved to the EU region completely and deprecated multi-region support.

I did contact support and they said things like the backups should be complete in 6 hours else they will fail. This is not true(proof https://d.pr/i/J2fiRm). A backup was completed even when it took more than 6 hours to complete. And that too after the backups started failing which is even weirder.

The founder doesn't understand the importance of backups and why it is so crucial for them to work reliably.

I am frustrated as I have clients to whom I have "promised" daily backups.

I have whitelisted the IP and tried countless other things.

Apart from failing at what it's supposed to do(backups), the founder told me months before that the feature of having backups of different websites(nodes) inside their folder would be launched very soon(a week or a few days, don't remember exactly). I have even stopped asking. The founder was very active in support when the AppSumo deal was ongoing. But it seems like he doesn't care much. The support takes forever to reply. The replies do not always help.

At this stage, I am not sure what should I do. One thing I am sure about is that they do not care much about backup failures and what reliability means. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

They took a long time to give us the improvements that we are already enjoying today. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ability to backup to multiple locations and to separately back up cPanel accounts, WordPress installations, and other cloud storage locations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The interface could be a little more intuitive, but it has greatly improved since I first began using it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
