At the request of users over the last couple of months, several new features have been added to Backup Smart - the cPanel website backup software application.
Those that own the software get all updates for FREE.
Here’s what was added in version 1.26…
* A very handy option to only include in the scheduled backup logs those sites that failed their backups. So for those with lots of websites they can quickly see if anything failed which needs their attention.
* Added a minimize on startup feature (in settings menu) - Backup Smart always had the option to start on system startup, but now it can minimise as well.
* Added ability to bulk import tasks from a CSV file. This is mainly for power users. Instead of creating tasks from scratch for many websites, you can now load all the data into a CSV spreadsheet and then import it straight into Backup Smart.
For those that haven’t checked out Backup Smart yet, go and grab yourself a FREE 7 day trial of the software.
For those that own a copy of Backup-Smart just restart the software and it should self update.

Do you backup your website(s)? Ever?
I know I didn’t which is the main reason I developed this software. You see I have a lot of websites and look after even more for other people.
Backing up your websites has always had 2 draw backs.
1) You have to remember to do it.
2) You have to have a lot of time to do it since it’s a very manual process.
My new software solves both of those draw backs for those of you lucky enough to have your web hosting on a cPanel web server.
Let me first tell you how to backup your website using cPanel.
a) Go to your http://website.com:2082 and enter in your credentials.
b) Go to the Backup icon (will look different depending on your theme)
c) Click on the link to download the home directory backup (this will take all your files)
d) Click on the links to download your databases
e) Click on the links to download your email filters or email aliases
Now you can do all that or you can set it up in Backup Smart and it will do it all for you on a schedule that you set. Couldn’t be simpler.
Plus it runs on Windows, MAC OSX and even Linux by running under Adobe AIR (which is a new cross platform application environment)
Have a look at this promo video I made for the software.
If you think it’s something that you could use, I have a 7 day free trial for it, and if you read this post prior to 02Feb09 then you can get an early bird special offer of just $7 which is a saving of $30 off the $37 price tag that I’ll be selling this for.
