I want to backup 3 databases. Your $39 state that I can do that, but upon choosing that option expecting to pay $39 dollars, you come with a whole ‘limited’ story that I dont understand. You say you allow 5 databases to be backed up for $39, but quickly change your tune upon purchase with a whole range of add-ons that must be chosen after that amounting to $53 dollars! What’s your game here, please explain to me why I should even now consider paying for this service if I can go somewhere else?
Hello Johan_du_Toit,
SQLBackupAndFTP is a standalone application. Once you bought a license it never expires, and you can use the version you’ve purchased forever. The subscription is optional and requires a yearly recurring fee. The subscription allows to:
- Auto-update the app to the latest version (vs staying with the version you have purchased).
- See backup history on the web (web log).
- Receive direct email support from our team (vs support via community forum).
- Use SQLBackupAndFTP mail servers for sending backup notifications (vs configuring your own mail server).
- Receive alerts when your server or backup service is down (service down alerts).
More details about Full-Service subscription.
$39 is the price for the Lite edition for one computer without the one-year Full-Service subscription.
$53 is the price for the Lite edition for one computer including the one-year Full-Service subscription.
Note, you can enable or disable the subscription during the purchase.
If you have any other questions, please let us know.
Thank you for using SQLBackupAndFTP.
