Dropbox Backups
What precisely does the Dropbox backup procedure involve? How to back up your web hosting account to Dropbox?
Dropbox is a file storage service, that allows you to store any type of content. The files are synchronized between all computer systems in which the Dropbox app is set up and you are able to access them from any type of device, even a smartphone. Unlike an Internet hosting service where the files are executed and an html file, for example, shall appear as an actual page with text and images on it, in Dropbox you shall view the content as a list of files and folders. If you have an account with them or start a new one, you can take advantage of our absolutely free service and you can link a hosting account on our end with the Dropbox account so that our system can make regular backups there. This way you can have a copy of your content on our web servers, on their servers and also on your computer and you will be able to access it from any device provided the Dropbox application is set up, which will give you more safety in case something happens with your information, such as an accidental deletion, for example.

Dropbox Backups in Shared Hosting
If you choose to make the most of our Dropbox backup service and you've got a

dedicated server from our company in the event that the machine is set up with our progressive Hepsia CP. The user-friendly interface will provide you with access to different options such as what exactly to be backed up and what amount of copies to be stored at any given time inside the Dropbox account. This flexibility is handy if you have a lot of data on the server and you do not need everything or in case the free disk space that you have within the Dropbox account is limited. You could choose individual domain and subdomain folders or even just individual databases to be copied to their servers every day and the number of copies you can have is between 3 and 14. Both options could be changed based on your requirements at any moment and shall take effect the very next time our system generates the backups. The Dropbox account could be erased with a mouse click and if you no longer would like to employ it or you don't have one, you may also consider the backup service we offer with the Managed Services upgrade alongside many other tasks that will make the management of your dedicated hosting server a lot more simpler.
