Dropbox is a popular cloud file storage platform. In contrast to an Internet hosting service where you can have a website that's accessible online by typing a domain name, Dropbox allows you to store files, that you can access via their app using a computer or a smartphone. The files aren't executed, so an html file shall be listed and not shown as an actual Internet site. The service allows you to access your data from any location provided that you log in with the right credentials. Because the firm allows third-party firms to use their API, we've taken advantage of this service and we present you with the opportunity to produce regular automatic backups of the content you have on our end to a Dropbox account provided you've got enough space. This shall add one more level of protection for your sites since you will always have a copy of any data that you may need and if the application is installed on your computer system, a copy will be available not just on their servers, but also in a folder on your end.

Dropbox Backups in Shared Hosting

If you wish to make the most of our Dropbox backup service and you have a shared hosting account, you can permit this option with a couple of clicks in your Hepsia Control Panel and our system will start producing backups the very same day. Based on the disk space quota of your Dropbox account and the amount of content you've got on our hosting servers, you'll be able to pick the number of different backups that will be generated, ranging from 3 to 14. You could also decide if backups will be created simply of the Internet site files or of the databases too and Hepsia will allow you to enable this option for every website or database individually, so you can back up just the content which you actually need. Allowing the service is very simple and all it takes is to incorporate your Dropbox account in the corresponding section of Hepsia. You may even include several accounts and removing one you no longer want to use takes only a mouse click. You could use this service along with our regular backups which are generated four times a day and include all of your files and databases.

Dropbox Backups in VPS Servers

You can use this function with all VPS servers which we offer provided you opt for Hepsia for the hosting CP. Your Dropbox account can be linked to the server through the user-friendly interface Hepsia includes and a copy of your information shall be stored in your Dropbox account every single day. The maximum amount of copies that you can have at any time is 14, therefore if you do not have enough free space with Dropbox or you have too much content on the VPS, you can either choose a smaller number of copies or you could pick just particular websites to be backed up. The latter can be included or eliminated from the backups at any time with ease. The Dropbox function will permit you to get a copy of your content right on your PC every day without doing anything by hand, but you may also consider the backup service that we offer with our Managed Services upgrade given that you'll get a number of other administration tasks with it as well.
