Why Choose Backups Pro?
Advanced automation, secure storage, and professional-grade recovery for CMS Made Simple.
-
Safer Migrations and Cloning
-
Reduced Server Load and Storage Usage
Incremental backups store only changes since the previous backup, minimizing disk usage and backup duration. Schedule backups at specific low-traffic times and apply advanced retention rules to automatically reduce older backups while preserving recent restore points.
-
Extended Database and File Coverage
Back up individual database tables or external, non-CMSMS tables when required. Include extended directories beyond the standard CMSMS structure, ensuring configuration files and related assets are protected.
-
Automatic Pre-Update Protection
Automatically generate restore points before CMSMS core or module updates. If an update introduces issues, restore the previous state immediately without downtime or complex rollback procedures.
-
Enhanced Security and Compliance
Encrypt databases using AES-256 with password protection to safeguard sensitive data. Anonymize personal information for development environments and protect backup settings with additional access controls.
Used in Production Environments
“Incremental backups and automatic pre-update protection have significantly reduced our recovery risk. Backups Pro gives us structured, predictable disaster recovery.”
