Why Backup your Servers Daily?

DigitalOcean does not currently offer a daily backup option, and weekly backups for the price of 20% of the droplet are not good enough for all. SnapShooter established itself in 2017 to meet the requirements to offer daily backups. Most of our customers find that daily backups offer the level of protection they need and enjoy being able to set their own custom retention rates (not limited to the 4 that Droplet weekly backups offer)

Weekly DigitalOcean Volume Backups?

DigitalOcean does not have an automated way to backup Volumes, we added support of up to hourly backups of Volumes, just remember you are limited to 25 per volume by DigitalOcean.

For a lot of our customer’s volumes backups are more important than droplets, with large and important data stored on Volumes for their high capacity.

Free Plan

Because we know how important having backups are we have a free plan that allows you to take daily backups of one resource, a droplet, volume or MySQL database. No card is required to enjoy this feature.
