   Excellent backup service

   By far the best backup service I've used. Reasonably simple to use but also extremely powerful. Support is excellent and the Snapshooter team have been highly responsive and are pro-active in adding new features and backup "recipes" for common scenarios. Once you're comfortable with the process, setting up a new server connection and backup jobs takes just a few minutes.

   👍 Pros:    Good UI|Great customer support|Supports many cloud storage|Easy to use

   👎 Cons:    Long lists of jobs unwieldy

   Backup with clarity

   Backups, done.

   A good range of options for backups of files to config and previous databases and much more. Only use a handful of integrations. Lots of options around scheduling.

   All administered from an easy to use web interface.

   Use their storage or your own is flexible to ensure multiple copies reside.

   Restore is good too, that’s quite important I’m told ;) clear to see steps needed.

   The support is great and responsive too.

   My con is in the context of wanting certain integrations without the rest of the higher plan features. It’s a minor niggle really :)

   👍 Pros:    Ease of use|Clean ui|Support team always ready|Reliable|Reports

   👎 Cons:    Costly pro plan
