Backup in a Box Cloud StorageBox cloud backup is an effective online storage solution. Handy Backup can automate Box backup and restore, allowing users performing either Box WebDAV transmission or utilizing the dedicated Box backup tool – a plug-in for Box fast and secure connection. If you are an owner of the Box account, you will need to back up your Box data for some reasons: - You may want to transfer your data to another Box account or even to another cloud service.
- You may wish to have a copy of your Box cloud content in some other place.
- A viable reason for backup is mere a protection of your account data from malfunction.
Utilize Box backup service for such cases as: - When you need secure online backup storage for some target data.
- To store or share dynamic data such as SoHo or small business projects.
- Before Box migration to any other cloud service.
You can just copy all content from your Box manually, although this method is highly unsafe and prone to a risk of a human error. Therefore, we are recommending you using Handy Backup, allowing automating Box.com backup and restore through a Box option or a WebDAV interface.
