SimpleBackups Reviews & Product Details

I appreciate SimpleBackups the most for how effortlessly it takes care of backups for both servers and external services like GitHub. The platform’s user-friendly interface makes scheduling and managing backups straightforward, and the automated approach saves me time and worry. Plus, the ability to monitor everything from a single dashboard adds significant convenience, ensuring that all my critical data is protected without constant manual intervention.

While SimpleBackups works efficiently overall, there are a couple of drawbacks with the Essential plan. First, you can’t choose a specific time for the backups to start, which limits control and can be inconvenient if you need a precise schedule. Second, the backups don’t all begin simultaneously but instead run in sequence, which can be frustrating if you want to streamline or parallelize the process.

We use Easypanel to manage our applications and services, but it struggled with the size of our databases, which exceed 1GB. After searching for a solution, we found a tool that provided fast, hassle-free backups for large databases, allowing us to use credentials instead of just relying on SSH access. This solution completely resolved our issue and streamlined our operations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While SimpleBackups offers robust and reliable solutions for managing backups, one notable drawback is the lack of competitive pricing plans for clients in Latin America. This limitation can be a significant concern for businesses in the region, especially those looking for cost-effective backup solutions. Adjusting their pricing structure to better accommodate Latin American clients would make SimpleBackups a more attractive option for businesses in this market.

If there's something to be mentioned It is expensive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It was an easy UI where we can placed the backups for ur complete infrastructure like Database,Snapshots,Droplets (digitalocean). It was easy to setup the and onboard the complenents in digitalocean Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The biggest disadvantage is that the free plan only allows us to choose a single component, such as a droplet, snapshot, database, or disc, for backup. If you want to add additional tasks, you must purchase the premium plan, which is somewhat more expensive.

For example, having a 10$ droplet and paying 29$ for backup does not make sense. If you have more articles, it works. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- You can store the backups pretty much anywhere that makes sense for your business, it's incredibly versatile

- Encryption works really well, the documentation and explanations are really good

- Notifications are great, if something fails, you'll know

- There is a realtime log when the backup is running so you can see any issues that are happening, make changes, and test immediately.

- IP addresses are fixed, so you can whitelabel specific ones and ensure that your network is still secure

- There is SSH tunnelling for more advanced setups

- The UI is really intuitive and smooth

- The cost is excellent for what you get

- You can be added under multiple tenants (aka. Teams in the system) and that works incredibly well. It means you can ring-fence your data and integrations between clients, projects, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- I really can't think of anything bad about the system. The only feature I think would be cool would be the ability to use a YubiKey for MFA but that isn't a necessity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I was looking for an easy backup solution for my clients MySQL databases. After playing around with a couple of other sites which was either too complicated or too expensive for me I found SimpleBackups and signed up for a test account. In a matter of minutes, all was up and running and my DBs was backuped securely to my Dropbox account. I was looking for a solution to have my DBs on my personal Dropbox account. Later I adapted to their own cloud space which also worked after only a couple of clicks. It simply works as promised, easy and reliable! Additional their support is exceptional and I got very fast help for doubts in their internal chat and via email as well. Today this is not as normal as it should be but they actually care for their clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Honestly, I can't tell you anything I disliked. Even their support was always outstanding when I had a doubt about my server config and the ssh connection to them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
