LESS ADMIN. MORE PEACE OF MIND.
One backup job. More than one safe place.
DBack brings scheduling, storage and monitoring into one native SwiftUI app. Connect a MySQL server, select a database and decide where your backups should go.
Send the same job to multiple destinations simultaneously. Keep a local copy, use your S3-compatible storage and deliver to a remote server, all from one configuration.
