### "My honest review of my experience using SQLBak."

March 1, 2026

5.0

I used SQLBak for many years; it helped me with backup management and organization. I've paused its use because of the latency, which left me somewhat dissatisfied, but that's the fault of the region where I use it, not the application itself.

Pros

SQLbak is very practical for automating and managing database backup routines, something I would otherwise have to manually develop in various scripts and routines. SQLabak has everything ready-made for a fair price.

Cons

The only downside, in my opinion, is the latency of SQLbak with Google Drive on a dedicated server hosted in São Paulo, Brazil. If it were fast and had low latency, the product would be perfect.

### "A Reliable Database Backup Service"

April 1, 2022

4.0

I have used Sqlbak for months and it has saved me from data loss a few times.

Pros

It securely backs up my databases and server files on schedules. I can one-click restore backups in case there is a data loss.

Cons

Third-party cloud backup destinations require paid plans. In the free plan (Linux version), FTP is the only option for sending backups to remote storage.

### "SQLBack a solution that uses solutio (my company's solutio)"

February 11, 2026

4.0

My experience is good; it's easy to use, practical, a solution, and it works.

Pros

I like the practicality of connecting with my clients and offering them this solution.

Cons

I just reported a case because there are many issues with notifications. Emails don't arrive, they arrive, and they end up in spam. It uses the business account from which emails are sent and blocks them. I don't know what's happening if it's a premium service. How can I prevent the assigned emails from ever being blocked?

Alternatives considered

Reason for choosing SqlBak

Because I trust what other colleagues tell me, then I try it out, and if it's useful for me, I start using it with my clients.

### "Make SQL Backups easy again"

October 18, 2024

5.0

Overall, SqlBak is an excellent solution for anyone who wants to reliably back up their databases while minimizing administration costs. We can recommend it!

Pros

We have been using SqlBak for a few months now and love how easy it is to use and manage backup jobs centrally. The intuitive interface allows us to monitor and control all of our customers' backups in one place, making administration much easier. We particularly appreciate the ability to quickly set up and customize different backup jobs for different databases. The central dashboard view gives us a clear overview of the status of the backups, so we can immediately see if everything is running smoothly. In addition, the scheduling of backups is extremely flexible, and we can set the time periods according to our needs or those of our customers. The notification function ensures that we are always informed if there is a problem.

Cons

none. We can't find anything negative ...
