Many of our customers have expressed an interest in backing up their projects on a scheduled basis. We've had an archiving feature to back up customer projects for Enterprise customers for some time now, but we have now released scheduled backups to all of our customers. To access scheduled backups, just go to the Manage Subscriptions link in ProjectLocker Portal, on the left navigation bar under "Backup Links", choose the day of the week or day of the month you'd like and your projects, and confirm.Monthly backups are just $5/month for unlimited projects. Weekly backups are $15/month for unlimited projects. All backups are kept at least 30 days, so you can download your backups to an off-site location of your choosing for additional peace of mind. If you just need an occasional backup, you can still use the Request Backups link to get your backup for a single project for just $2.50. However, if you find yourself requesting backups regularly, you can save money and time by scheduling a subscription. There's no contract, even if you're an annual or biannual subscriber, and you can cancel at any time.
We absolutely have not changed our policy regarding backups for disaster recovery. We continue to regularly back up all customer data internally to an encrypted, off-site location so that we can get you up and running in the event of a disaster on our side. Downloadable backups are just an additional convenience for customers who prefer to maintain their own copies of project data for historical/archiving reasons, or just as an additional measure of protection. In any case, you can continue to rely on ProjectLocker for the enterprise-grade support and infrastructure you expect at a great price.
As always, open a ticket in ProjectLocker Portal if you have any questions or issues with this or any other feature.
