ApexSQL Backup

ApexSQL Backup is a modern-looking and powerful tool designed to create incremental backups across several SQL servers.
The application allows you to configure and manage backups across one or multiple databases and even servers, to increase your team’s productivity.
The program includes useful backup templates, but it also allows you to create your schedules. You can schedule one-time backups or recurrent tasks and thus automate the data saving.
ApexSQL Backup can also perform data recovery, a task facilitated by creating restore points.
The tool can help you to easily activate one of these restore points straight from the timeline and thus access lost, corrupted or otherwise damaged data.
With its friendly, neat and simplistic interface, ApexSQL Backup is a reliable tool for creating a backup flow for your SQL servers.
Moreover, it also allows you to define policies for full, differential and transaction log backups, which can be applied to several databases at once.
The dedicated wizard function allows you to control the options for backup validation or log shipping details. You may thus automate copying the backup to a network location and restoring the data on multiple destination servers.
ApexSQL Backup can be controlled with the help of several remote agents, including server-side components, all of which operate on a single centralized repository.
The program features both Command Line and GUI support and allows you to schedule a single task across several backups.
You can view the backups history, as well as the list of restore points. The backup source can be a single database file or a group of files and you can select the data transfer direction: copy-only or mirroring.
Other useful functions include optional splitting of the backup files or using variables to automatically name the resulting files. Additionally, you can use the scheduler to restore data, plus use the backup templates for quick tasks.System requirementsMicrosoft SQL Server 2014 / 2012 / 2008 / 2005
