Smart and Efficient Backups for activeCollab – local or in the cloud

If you’ve ever lost our work because you did not keep a backup, you definitely know their value. If you didn’t, I wish you don’t even face a disaster like that.

Backups are really important. Especially with a tool as critical as activeCollab.

Stock activeCollab does not include a backup system and assumes that you’d be managing backups on your own. Different people have different needs and strategies for backup and many depend on their web hosting company to provide backup facilities.

Smart Backup is an automated and efficient backup system specially designed for activeCollab. It’s tightly integrated with activeCollab and optimized for performance.

Here’s what it does.

• Performs Incremental Backup – saving you lots of disk space and CPU usage
• Can also perform Full Backups if you wish, even multiple backups
• Can backup to cloud – on Amazon AWS S3 or on the server where activeCollab is hosted
• Backs up all attachments, avatars, logos, configuration and the complete database
• Can schedule backups to run automatically
• Keeps the entire backup in a single folder. So you can easily push it to an offsite backup location / disaster recovery infrastructure
• Verifies integrity of existing backups – so you know if everything’s alright
