Server backup software - Handy Backup is an easy and powerful solution for both Windows Server backup and local network data copying. This utility controls an entire network backup from a single panel. It supports Windows Server 2022, 2019, 2016 and earlier editions, as well as Linux files backup.
List of Supported Databases: MySQL, MS SQL, Oracle, Postgre SQL etc.
The properly installed and tuned system performs network backup and restore actions automatically. We can also help you to set up the system and to organize all tasks related to backing up!
Server Network software provides client and server backup solutions to backup Hyper-V images on local and remote machines, as well as VMware or VirtualBox virtual machines, including copying VM hosts and arrays online.
This solution can copy data of MS SQL, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Oracle and any other database, as well as save any database content via the generic ODBC-based feature.
Turn your Handy Backup software into a data backup server that takes snapshots of any local or remote drive in a “hot” mode from a central management panel.
As a Windows server backup tool, Handy Backup can back up websites, FTP storages, cloud accounts, MS Exchange server data or email content, providing best results for your data security.
Besides backup of Windows Server 2022, 2019, the client allows Windows Server 2016 backup and Windows Server 2012 backup. The program is also compatible with Ubuntu 22.04 and other Linux distributions*.
Management Panel: a component of the program that contains a graphical user interface (GUI), which allows creating and controlling network backup, recovery and synchronization tasks.
Network Agent: a component for installing to any target computer, either server or workstation, on a network, which will make all actual data processing for backup and recovery.
Central Console: a machine in a local network that contains a Management Panel, required for controlling all tasks from a single point. It also contains a copy of a Network Agent for backup.
Remote Machine: a server or a workstation with an appropriate type of Network Agent installed to, which can send or receive backup data via network.
Here we will describe a sample scheme for organizing centralized backup. Let us have a small network with six user machines, a data server with MySQL and SFTP data (which also runs a company website), and an all-purpose storage server, which is a workplace for a system administrator.
How it works? Only a system administrator creates and governs all tasks from a central console, via running the Management Panel to control tasks. A task can involve any machine via its Network Agent to make some backup, recovery or sync job.
Newest versions of Handy Backup allow not only making pre-configured installation files for Network Agents on remote machines but also deploying these Network Agents throughout a local network directly from the main management panel of a system administrator.
This feature is extremely useful for implementing network backup architecture on very big, complex or heterogeneous local networks. It is not only much more comfortable than installing Network Agents manually but also adds to security due to avoiding third-party solutions.
You can store backups locally at a central machine, as well on some remote server, on external USB device, NAS, FTP/SFTP/FTPS storage, or on some cloud — server backup to Google Drive, Amazon S3 and other S3-driven clouds, OwnCloud, Dropbox, OneDrive and OneDrive for Business, etc.
You can run some external program or batch file automatically before or after a particular backup server task, allowing using Handy Backup as a part of integrated data workflow.
For example, you can execute antivirus scanning with an external program before your Windows Server 2016 backup, to ensure that data included in the dataset is free from viral attacks.
To optimize storage space, time and security of transferring big data arrays, such as complete Windows Server 2019 backup, you can compress data to a ZIP and encrypt with a modified 256-bit AES.
Client components of the Windows server backup tool will run as Windows services or hidden Linux processes, making no distraction for remote users. The central console also has a service mode.

"Our company provides a complete SoHo infrastructure, including remote data security, corporate clouds and private VPNs. I was exceedingly impressed with how easy it was to restore the backups on any customer’s new machine, and they were of course thrilled that it all worked! It controls your entire network backup from a single point, and you can automate all backup actions separately by well-developed task scheduling. In addition, these are no fees or commissions, all services including constant updates are included into the basic price!
