Question 2

Is SimpleBackups secure?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! We take security very seriously due to the nature of what we do and encrypt all your sensitive information using industry-tested standards.
We even inform you about which fields are encrypted in our database when you create a server, a backup or a storage.
These encrypted fields are only decrypted when you login to your account or on-the-fly at runtime when SimpleBackups makes a backup for you.

Question 3

Why should I use SimpleBackups when my web host has a backup solution?

Accepted Answer

The quality of web host backup solutions varies, and it’s never a good idea to put all your eggs in one basket.

When you back up your MySQL databases with SimpleBackups, you can easily reach them, keep them protected, and schedule automated backups. You don’t have to do anything manually or check that your databases have been backed up. We’ll keep you notified, so you can focus on your work!

Question 4

Why should I back up my website?

Accepted Answer

You should back up your website to protect your data, especially if you often make changes. SimpleBackups lets you schedule when you want us to back up your website so you don’t have to do it manually.

It’s simple, easy to use, and you don’t have to be a developer to do it!

(But if you are, then we’ll just tell you one thing: no Bash scripts. We promise!)

Question 5

What operating systems are supported?

Accepted Answer

SimpleBackups supports Linux servers and almost every distribution including: Amazon Linux, CentOS, Debian, Fedora, openSUSE, Red Hat, Ubuntu, and more...

Question 6

How are my backups protected?

Accepted Answer

Your backups are dumped on your own server, then securely transmitted from your server to your own cloud storage.
The dumps are not stored on any third-party or even our servers during the backup process or transmission, so you’re 100% safe.

Question 7
