Introducing
SolidBackups – NextGen
A cloud-first, high-performance approach
Solid Backups – NextGen is an all new cloud-first, high-performance backups solution from SolidWP. With Solid Backups – NextGen, your backups are faster, take up less space, and are more reliable than ever.
The SolidWP team has reimagined backups from the ground up and engineered an entirely new system with reliability, convenience, and security in mind. Backups are stored safely in the cloud, and when the need arises, can be painlessly restored with a single click. No more resource-hogging, potentially-cumbersome plugin-based methods of backing up your WordPress site.
Cloud-first approach = speed + performance
Legacy WordPress backup plugins run PHP code on your hosting server. This means that they consume processor, memory, and storage resources that otherwise would be used to do what your site is there to do: serve visitors.
We refer to Backups — NextGen as a “cloud-first” solution because your site backups are powered by our cloud infrastructure. Each backup is initiated by our servers, and the vast majority of the computing power required is on our end.
Some legacy solutions, including Solid Backups (formerly known as BackupBuddy), offer cloud storage of backups. But typically the backups are created on your hosting environment and require substantial storage capacity — even if only temporarily until transferred to a cloud storage provider like Amazon S3, Dropbox, or elsewhere.
Solid Backups — NextGen, on the other hand, directly transfers your site’s database and changed files to SolidWP’s cloud infrastructure each time a backup runs, requiring minimal additional space on your hosting server. And Backups — NextGen leverages sophisticated technologies like object versioning to optimize the storage required.
Key Features
Daily, incremental backups
Rocket fast. That’s our promise. After your initial backup, only files that have changed are backed up. What’s the point in backing up the same file over and over again? Yeah. We don’t see the point either. That’s why we don’t waste your resources making you do it.
Activity Timeline
Get contextual information around your backups with the Activity Timeline. Each backup card lists the date and time of the backup as well as how many posts, pages, and uploads were backed up. Want to restore a site from the backup that ran yesterday? Simply select the Restore site button.
One-click restore
Need to restore? One click. Done. (Okay, we ask you if you’re sure…but we promise the actual restore process is one click).
Security
Even if you diligently enforce best practices for security on your site, circumstances outside your control can lead to a site breach. Anyone will tell you that reliable, automated, secure backups are an indispensable last line of defense when the worst occurs. Being able to rapidly restore from a known-good backup can save untold hours of effort, prevent downtime, and preserve your all-important revenue stream.
Backups — NextGen was engineered by some of SolidWP’s top WordPress security minds, making it the tool of choice when it comes to making sure your backups are safe, secure, there when you need them.
Centralized Management
No more logging in and out of multiple systems. No more trying to remember where something is. Thanks to our centralized dashboard, where Solid Backups – NextGen are managed, everything is in one place. Easy to find, providing you with efficiency and time savings.
For even more valuable features, including uptime monitoring and more advanced reporting, consider upgrading to Solid Central Pro.
Automatic Versioning
Why spend time, energy, and resources backing up the same file over and over again? Solid Backups – NextGen is smarter than that, and so are you. After the initial backup, only files that have changed are backed up. This maximizes and condenses storage and speeds things up.
