Built by people who've felt the panic

SQLBackup exists because we've been there: a production database gone, a backup that didn't exist, and a very long night. We built the tool we wished we'd had.

The night that started it

A routine deploy. A migration that did more than it should have. By the time anyone noticed, a core table was empty in production — and the "nightly backup" turned out to be a cron job that had been failing silently for weeks.

We recovered, eventually, by stitching together fragments. But the lesson stuck: a backup you don't monitor, can't restore, and didn't encrypt is not a backup. Most teams are one bad query away from finding that out the hard way.

SQLBackup is our answer. It does the boring, critical work correctly — across every database engine we've had to support — so the next 3 AM is a non-event.

03:47 — then vs. now
Then

"Is there a backup?" → silence → scramble → data loss.

Now

sqlbackup restore → verified copy in minutes → back to sleep.

The principles behind every decision

Safety isn't optional

Encryption on by default, sane retention, and a restore path we actually test. The defaults should keep you safe even if you never tune them.

Transparency over trust-me

Standard, audited crypto and a fully documented backup format, with zero telemetry. We earn trust by how the product works, not by marketing.

Fair, simple pricing

One flat price, every feature included — no per-database upsells or surprise add-ons. And a 15-day free trial so you can be sure first.

Boring is beautiful

Backups should be uneventful. We optimize for "it just worked again last night," not flashy dashboards full of noise.
