WebDAV Backup Software Client

Fast and Convenient WebDAV Backup Software

Handy Backup allows WebDAV backup in all editions through the dedicated "WebDAV" sync plug-in governed by a simple, modern-looking graphical interface (GUI). The new task wizard allows two modes: simple for basic backup settings and advanced for full-featured WebDAV sync or backup.

Secure Data Transfer to WebDAV Server

Besides a secure WebDAV data transferring protocol, you can always compress and/or encrypt your WebDAV backup data with an internal tool, and decrypt your archives during recovery. Note that Handy Backup keeps unencrypted backup files in native format, allowing using these files without recovery!

The technology of WebDAV backup and sync allows connecting to many clouds. For some of these clouds (Dropbox, Box, OneDrive etc.) Handy Backup has own plug-ins requiring no WebDAV client software. Still, many other private and public clouds need for WebDAV to connect.

• For example, you can organize backup to some private OwnCloud server by using WebDAV.
• Another case is some popular service that has no plug-in in Handy Backup but supports WebDAV. Examples include not only cloud services but such cases as Wordpress backup.
• At last, WebDAV HTTPS or HTTP protocol is just an extension beyond HTTP, and you can use WebDAV client software to access many Web resources (e.g., for downloading and uploading files during website backup or CMS management).
