Reasons why you should buy SiteVault

More Information On SiteVault

  • Complete SiteVault Details

    Incremental backup

    Only modified files are downloaded and stored.

    The application can restore all the backups you did for one site. It is very useful if you need to restore the way the site worked at a certain date. To ensure that the files aren't duplicated uselessly, SiteVault does the following thing:

    • Goes to the FTP server, gets information about the file
    • Compares the file to previous backups
    • If the file is new it copies it in the latest backup
    • If the file is in an older backup, it moves it into the latest backup folder and leaves a reference in the older backup to it so that the older backup can be easily restored. It also checks what other backups reference to it and modifies them also.
    This allows SiteVault to easily reconstruct older backups while keeping the newest information handy.


    Alternate backup paths and protocols

    Use both FTP and HTTP protocols when downloading

    Some PHP scripts create files on the server that only it and the server can access, they cannot be copied with FTP. This is annoying since these files are usually important modifications done by site managers (uploaded images, documents, application settings, etc). If the file is unavailable via FTP, SiteVault will go and download it with HTTP (since the file was most likely available to regular users anyway).


    Backup only selected tables

    Some tables in your site database aren't as important as others, the log tables aren't that vital to a backup, but can become very large. It will greatly slow the backup process, especially if it happens daily. SiteVault will allow the user to select the tables he wants to download.


    Database Connection Gateway


    Use a PHP script to gateway to the SQL server

    Database servers aren’t usually accessible from outside the server or the datacenter network. SiteVault uploads gateway scripts, these scripts connect to the database server locally and stream the data back to SiteVault via HTTP.

  • MySQL Backup

    You want to run a periodic MySQL Backup for your site.

    A MySQL Backup is a simple thing to do when the amount of data isn't too much. Unfortunately it almost always is.

    Most of the MySQL backup techniques require you to have root access to the MySQL server or shell rights on the hosting server. Which is seldom the case.

    Other solutions are web-based and can't handle large quantities of data, scripts will time out and the information won't be handy.

    Most of them won't allow you to restore the information with the same ease and the Internet is filled with people asking why can't PhpMyAdmin import lots of Megs of sql. The solutions are awkward at best.

    SiteVault will give you the possibility to backup and restore as much sql data as your hard-drive or the hoster's allows.

  • FTP Backup

    You want to run a periodical and intelligent ftp backup.

    A FTP backup isn’t for most a priority, but it’s definitely a necessity, so why not doing it in the best way possible?

    The SiteVault incremental FTP backup functions this way: A first FTP backup is done and the information is transferred locally from the server.

    The second time you backup only the modified or newly added files are downloaded and the filed from the previous backup that haven’t changed are moved to the current backup folder while recording that it did so, allowing you to restore the site as it was at a certain date.

    This is fast and accurate taking the smallest possible time for your FTP backup.

  • Backup MySQL Database

    Your site changes very fast and you need to backup your MySQL database quickly and efficiently.

    Backup-ing fast changing sites has to be done regularly and easily. Without the use of an accurate technology it can become quite tedious. SiteVault allows you do to all this. The interface is easy to use and the technology allows you do backup MySQL databases without any size concerns.

  • Backup for Webmasters

    Considerations

    A backup application is only good if you use it before the disaster happen. Even if you maintain small sites that don't change that often, the peace of mind a good backup application ensures is worth it. Knowing that no matter what happens you can intervene quickly and efectively should mean very much for you, as it does for me.

    Affiliate Program Opportunity

    Additionally, you can convince your clients to use SiteVault, for the reasons stated above. As an affiliate you will be able to win aas much as 75% of the final sum.


    The Very Simple Solution

    SiteVault will backup both the files and the SQL data at the same time and will restore them quickly and completely (file atributes included) to the live server.
    The sites need to be setup in the application once and let run on one of the company's computers.

    All you need to do is discuss this with the client, covince him of the utility of this process and charge a monthly fee. We're not saying you should do this for the fee (although your persuasion skills can make the difference), but for your peace of mind, for the fast action time it provides and the fact that you can simply not go through the hassle of reassembling a website.


    The Matter of Fact

    Small development companies all over the world develop a special relationship with their clients. The clients expect them to not only design or develop their site, but to maintain it, even if this is not based on any agreenment of any kind.

    Many times, customers forget or ignore to pay their hosting fees, modify what they shouldn't, give access to untrained people that delete files or a simple server crash happens. In this situation the client will expect the web developers to restore the site quickly and in it's latest state, which is not always possible due to changes happened while the site was online.
