### "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.

### "Good features, and easy to use"

September 20, 2026

5.0

it has been amazing honestly, its so easy to use and never really goes down, and my backups never also have errors and it supports multiple database softwares

Pros

Automated backups, and the feature where i can delete old backups out of my google drive after a set amount is an awesome feature too.

Cons

yearly billing not available, aside from that, its pretty good, even that con i speak of has a workaround where i can pre-load my account with enough credit to run me for a few years.

### "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.

### "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.

It's a great tool that's given me significant peace of mind. It has saved me from data loss a couple times already and I know I can depend on it to keep my databases backed up and protected without me thinking about it.

The web interface is very easy to use and understand. There's plenty of settings and customization without being overwhelming, and the available options for storing, encrypting, and moving data are fantastic! No matter your server, databases, or connection method, this has a solution for you.

Cons

I have nothing negative to note. I've had small issues with clients configuration on my part but I was able to reach out to support and quickly get it sorted without issues.
