If you back up your SQL database, you can make sure that your data will be safe at all times. This is particularly useful if you intend to change your web host or switch to another database server. With SQLBackupAndFTP, backing up SQL databases can be done as fast and easy as possible. You just need to specify what data to save and where. Additionally, the software provides you with detailed logs, which can be sent by email.

SQLBackupAndFTP is available in different versions, including a free one. It works on Windows 2000 and later versions, up to Windows 7 and it is compatible with various SQL Server editions. The application's hardware requirements are modest and you can install it in less than a minute.

Backing up an SQL database is a simple procedure. It does not involve any advanced configurations, so it can be done even by inexperienced users. When launched, the software will automatically detect your SQL servers. If you have multiple servers, you can select one, on a small window, on which you can also provide your login information.

The source data, as well as one or more destinations, can be selected on the main interface. The software can store the data in local or network folders, on a FTP server or on a Cloud server, such as DropBox, Google Drive, SkyDrive or others. Obviously, you will have to make different settings, depending on the selected destination.

To back up your data, it is sufficient to select a database and a destination and to hit the "Run Now" button, in the lower right corner of the interface, but you can make a few additional settings, before you start the process. You can set the program to send a confirmation by email, along with the appropriate logs, if the process succeeds or fails. Furthermore, you can schedule automatic backups. Depending on your settings, the program will perform a full or a differential backup and create a transaction log, every few hours and minutes.

Pros

SQLBackupAndFTP provides a user friendly interface, with well organized and easy to understand options. It detects your SQL servers automatically and it can store their contents in local or network folders, FTP or Cloud servers. You can also schedule automatic backups and set the program to send email confirmations.

Cons

The free version has a few limitations. With SQLBackupAndFTP, it takes only a few clicks to back up an entire SQL database to a location of your choice.
