This plug-in for FileMaker offers an affordable option for backing up data offsite.
SafetyNet is a software solution that enables FileMaker Server administrators to easily set up remote backup routines. The plugin synchronizes with Amazon's cloud-based file storage service, which offers a secure and reliable infrastructure for storing important files. By using SafetyNet, businesses can set up automatic backups of their data to protect against data loss in the event of a system failure or other disaster.
The software is designed to work seamlessly with FileMaker Server, making it easy to set up and maintain. The plugin constantly monitors scheduled backups for changes and automatically compresses and transfers new files to Amazon's secure servers using SSL encryption. Once set up, the solution requires no user intervention and works automatically to ensure that files are backed up securely and reliably.
SafetyNet includes a web-based control panel that allows administrators to monitor real-time backup progress, view a list of all offsite files, download files from backup, and perform one-click restores to FileMaker Server. This feature makes managing backups a breeze and ensures that businesses can quickly and easily retrieve their data in the event of an emergency.
One of the great benefits of SafetyNet is its affordability. The plugin itself is free, and billing for the service is handled by Amazon at an incredibly low cost. For just 99 cents per month, businesses can back up their files and only pay $1.00 per gigabyte per month stored and $1.00 per gigabyte transferred. For example, using SafetyNet to back up a 275 MB FileMaker solution every night, with 7 days of previous versions stored online, would cost about $5.00 per month.
Overall, SafetyNet is an excellent backup solution that is both reliable and affordable. It's easy to set up, requires no user intervention, and comes with a host of powerful features that make managing backups a breeze.
