Frequently asked questions

Can't find the answer you're looking for? Reach out to our support team by sending us an email.

How do automated backups work?: Set up backup schedules for your servers, and we'll automatically create snapshots according to your defined schedule. You can customize retention periods and backup frequency.
Why is it cheaper than Hetzner's backup solution?: While Hetzner charges 20% of your server's monthly price for backups, we use snapshots that are billed based on actual storage usage. This means you only pay for the space you need, making it more cost-effective.
How secure are my backups?: Your snapshots are stored directly in your Hetzner Cloud project using their secure infrastructure. We only manage the automation and don't have access to your data.
What's included in the plan?: Everything you need: unlimited servers, automated scheduling, retention policies, email reports, and instant snapshots. One simple price covers all features.
Can I cancel anytime?: Yes, you can cancel your subscription at any time. Your scheduled backups will continue until the end of your billing period.
Do you offer a free trial?: Yes! All new users get a 7-day free trial with full access to all features. No credit card required to get started.
