Sound familiar?
One disk failure takes every backup with it
Backups kept on the same server are not backups.
Restore tickets eat your week
Each "please restore my site" is an engineer hour you do not bill.
Storage bills you cannot predict
Full copies every night balloon your cloud invoice.

Questions before you buy.
Does it replace the native cPanel backup?
No. It uses the native backup engine to build archives and adds incremental transport, encryption and off-site storage.
Can customers restore only part of a site?
Yes. They can restore a single folder, a mailbox or one database from any retained date.
Which cPanel & WHM versions are supported?
cPanel & WHM 11.110 and newer on AlmaLinux 8/9, Rocky Linux 8/9, CloudLinux 8/9 and Ubuntu 22.04. We test every new cPanel release.
How is the license counted?
Per server IP. There are no per-account or per-customer fees, so your costs do not grow when you sell more hosting.
What if the plugin does not fit my setup?
Ask for a refund within 30 days and we return the full amount, no questions asked.
