SQLBackupAndFTP 3.4
SQL SERVER DATABASE BACKUP, ZIP AND FTP.
What can SQLBackupAndFTP do:
SQLBackupAndFTP can schedule daily jobs to
* Backup your SQL Server databases
* Zip the backups
* FTP the backups to a remote FTP Server or save it on the LAN
* Send you an e-mail confirmation on job's success or failure.
What's unique about SQLBackupAndFTP:
* Simple: SQLBackupAndFTP is unique in it's simplicity - the whole "set it and forget it" job can be done in a single form with no tabs in a minute of two.
* All-in-one: The whole backup - zip - ftp - confirm process is integrated as 1-2-3 (4)
* Inexpensive or free: Comparable functionality starts in programs from $200. In SQLBackupAndFTP you can get if free (if you need to schedule one-two databases), or just for $49 for unlimited scheduled SQL Server database backups.
* Credible: Created by a US based software company with years in .NET and SQL Server experience
Where should SQLBackupAndFTP be used:
SQLBackupAndFTP is ideal for any SQL Server database where backups have to be sent daily to a remote FTP server. It would save maintenance time on any SQL Server version, but it is especially useful for SQL Server Express 2005 and SQL Server Express 2008, since they don't have built in tools for backup at all.
Where it should NOT be used:
SQLBackupAndFTP is made to be simple. While for majority if users it is a huge advantage, the flip side is some specific configurations are not handled. You should not use SQLBackupAndFTP if:
* Your database has to be backed up several times a day (SQLBackupAndFTP does once a day only)
* If you need not only full, but differential backups as well (SQLBackupAndFTP does full only)
* If you use an SFTP or any other irregular FTP server. (SQLBackupAndFTP has "FTP Test" button so it is very easy to see if it works.)
Yardi Systems - a large property management software developer came to an agreement with Pranas.NET - the creators of SQLBackupAndFTP software to use it for their customers. This allowed Yardi to furnish their clients with a simple SQL database backup solution with no development effort and concentrate on perfecting their own product. "We are very impressed with the simplicity and completeness of SqlBackupAndFTP", says Mary Woodyard, the Yardi Genesis Product Manager.
Enterprise application developers often rely on a SQL Server database installed on client locations. Database backups then become a responsibility of largely non-technical clients. And subsequently developers are faced with frustrated clients who lost their data and a daunting task of trying to enforce backups for a large client base while having no control over it.
Here’s where SQLBackupAndFTP comes to a rescue. Released in 2008, it got quickly noticed by enterprise developers. This was primarily due to an interface simple enough even for inexperienced users to configure. Another factor was a low price of $49 compared to $200-$300 for similar products. But the features that really made a difference for enterprise developers were its ability to be installed in hidden and preconfigured mode along with any other software installation. This allowed software vendors to integrate all of SQLBackupAndFTP functionality into their own packages without requesting any configuration details from end-users. In addition, on the SQLBackupAndFTP.com web site enterprise developers have an interface to track backup for all of their customers.
FOR REFERENCE
SQLBackupAndFTP is $49 SQL server backup software focused on a simple configuration of a typical database backup scenario. In particular it creates full daily database backups, compresses and encrypts the backups, transfers it to a network or FTP location and sends e-mail confirmations on job success or failure. Software vendors can install SQLBackupAndFTP in hidden preconfigured mode for their customers and then remotely control backup job results for their customers through SQLBackupAndFTP.com web site.
