Dropbox is a well known cloud file storage platform. Unlike a web hosting service where you can have an Internet site that's accessible online by entering a domain, Dropbox allows you to store files, that you can access through their app using a PC or a smart phone. The files are not executed, so an html file will be listed and not shown as an actual web page. The service enables you to access your information from any location so long as you log in with the right credentials. Since the company allows third-party firms to use their API, we have taken advantage of this service and we offer you the opportunity to generate regular automatic backups of the data that you have on our end to a Dropbox account provided you have enough space. This shall incorporate one more level of protection for your websites because you will always have a copy of any data that you could need and if the app is installed on your PC, a copy shall be available not just on their web servers, but also in a folder on your end.

Dropbox Backups in Web Hosting

You can use the Dropbox backup feature with all web hosting services which we offer and at no extra cost. From the respective section within the Hepsia CP, you can link a Dropbox account with a couple of mouse clicks and the backups will start being created there the same day. You'll be able to choose the websites and databases which will be copied there independently, so if you have a lot of content on our end or a small disk quota with Dropbox, you could pick only the content that you truly need. You could also choose the number of backups that'll be kept in your Dropbox account, ranging from three to fourteen, so you could have a daily copy of your data going 14 days back. Incorporating numerous accounts or deleting one which you no longer want to use is just as easy. The Dropbox backups could be used together with the daily backups we keep of all your information in the event that you would like to have a copy on your PC via the Dropbox app.

Dropbox Backups in Semi-dedicated Servers

All semi-dedicated server accounts created on our sophisticated cloud hosting platform feature the Dropbox backup function by default, so you'll be able to link an account that you have with them with a few clicks. The tool which you shall find in the Hepsia hosting Control panel will permit you to select different options - what website files and databases shall be backed up and what amount of copies must be kept inside your Dropbox account. This way you'll be able to have a copy only of particular content for up to 14 days back. These options can be modified with ease anytime and you can even use several Dropbox accounts or delete ones that you no longer want to use. You should only make sure that the total size of the backups does not exceed the disk space limit that you have on their end. Since the backed up content can be accessed in a regular folder on your computer, this feature is a useful addition to the daily backups that we shall generate of your whole account at least four times every single day.

Dropbox Backups in VPS Servers

You can use this function with all VPS servers which we offer provided you pick Hepsia for the hosting CP. Your Dropbox account could be linked to the server through the user-friendly interface Hepsia comes with and a copy of your info will be stored inside your Dropbox account each and every day. The maximum amount of copies that you can have at one time is fourteen, thus if you do not have sufficient free space with Dropbox or you have too much content on the Virtual private server, you can either choose a smaller number of copies or you could pick only specific sites to be backed up. The latter could be included or removed from the backups whenever you want with ease. The Dropbox feature will allow you to get a copy of your content right on your computer every day without doing anything manually, but you may also consider the backup service which we offer with our Managed Services upgrade given that you'll get quite a few other administration tasks with it also.

Dropbox Backups in Dedicated Servers

All dedicated servers which are provided with our Hepsia hosting Control Panel include the Dropbox backup feature by default, so if you need to employ this service, you just have to link the server to your account through the Dropbox section in Hepsia. The user-friendly interface will enable you to select the websites that will be backed up in case that you do not require the entire content that you have on the server or you just don't have much free space within your Dropbox account. You can also choose how many copies of the daily backups will be kept, hence if you select the maximum number of fourteen, for instance, you will have a copy of your files and databases for each and every day of the past 2 weeks. Both options can be edited whenever you want if you change your mind regarding the content of the number of backups that you need. You could also disconnect the Dropbox account easily if you don't need to use it or if you prefer to use the backup service that is a part of our Managed services upgrade along with other practical server management tasks that our system admins can perform for you.
