Dropbox is a file storage platform, which has been gaining a lot in popularity nowadays as it enables you to access any content stored on its web servers via any device provided that their app is installed. The data is synchronized between all devices, so you may access it anytime. Dropbox does not offer hosting services, hence if you upload an html file it shall not show up as a web page and won't be executed. The service is used exclusively for storing information and we have taken advantage of the fact that they offer an API to third-party firms to set up a backup service on our end, which you could use if you host your Internet sites on our hosting servers. With this additional function you will not have tobe worried about your content considering that you shall always have a copy of your websites on the Dropbox servers and on your personal computer in case that something happens - a script update failing, deleting files by accident, etc.

Dropbox Backups in Shared Hosting

You can use the Dropbox backup feature with all shared hosting services we offer and at no extra cost. Using the respective section in the Hepsia Control Panel, you could link a Dropbox account with a couple of clicks and the backups will start being produced there the same day. You can pick the websites and databases that will be copied there independently, so if you have a lot of content on our end or a small disk quota with Dropbox, you can choose just the content which you actually need. You can also choose the number of backups which will be kept in your Dropbox account, ranging from 3 to 14, so you could have a daily copy of your content going two weeks back. Incorporating numerous accounts or deleting one which you no longer want to use is equally effortless. The Dropbox backups can be used along with the daily backups which we keep of all your content just in case that you would like to have a copy on your laptop or computer through the Dropbox application.

Dropbox Backups in Dedicated Hosting

It will take you just one or two clicks to link your Dropbox account to a dedicated server from our company if the machine is set up with our progressive Hepsia Control Panel. The easy-to-use interface shall offer you access to different options such as what exactly to be backed up and what amount of copies to be kept at one time within the Dropbox account. This flexibility is valuable in the event that you have loads of info on the server and you don't require all of it or in the event that the free disk space that you have in the Dropbox account is limited. You could pick certain 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 modified depending on your needs at any moment and shall take effect the very next time our system generates the backups. The Dropbox account could be deleted with a mouse click and if you no longer want to employ it or you do not have one, you could also consider the backup service which we offer with the Managed Services upgrade in addition to many other tasks that will make the management of your dedicated web server much easier.
