The vendor lists Pranas.NET Corp’s headquarters address as 33 Mandon Terrace, Hawthorne, New Jersey 07506, USA.
What it is
SQLBackupAndFTP is Windows software for backing up databases including SQL Server, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Amazon RDS SQL Server, Azure SQL, and MariaDB. It can schedule full, differential, and transaction log backups, plus incremental backups for MySQL and PostgreSQL, and can also back up files and folders. Destinations include local or network folders, FTP/SFTP/FTPS, NAS, and cloud services such as Amazon S3, Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox, Box, Azure Storage, Backblaze B2, and Yandex.Disk. Backup files are compressed. The app supports one-click restoration and can restore a backup chain in sequence; restore verification is listed. Success or failure notices can go by email, Slack, Teams, Discord, or webhook. The Free edition schedules up to two databases, supports full backups only, and excludes cloud destinations and AES encryption. Installing the app starts a 14-day Professional trial, after which it switches to Free. Paid licenses are one-time fees per computer, with Lite at $39, paid once and other listed plans at higher amounts.
