CBackups

CBackups is a backup software suite designed to protect data by automating backup, storage, and restoration processes across on-premises and cloud environments. It provides centralized management for configuring backup plans, executing jobs, and performing restores, with an emphasis on reliability, recoverability, and operational visibility for IT teams and individuals.

Core features include support for multiple backup sources such as local file systems, databases, and application data; diverse destinations including local disks, network shares, and cloud storage services; and various backup types such as full, incremental, differential, and synthetic full. It offers scheduling, retention policies, versioning, data compression and deduplication, and encryption of data in transit and at rest. Access control and audit logging support compliance and governance requirements.

Architecture typically comprises client agents installed on protected hosts, a central management server or cloud service, and adapters for storage backends. Some deployments are agent-based while others are agentless; the system provides an API or CLI for automation and integration with other IT management tools. CBackups supports multiple platforms including Windows, macOS, and Linux, and often provides both graphical and command-line interfaces.

Security and licensing terms vary by edition and deployment. Common considerations include encryption key management, authentication mechanisms, backup verification, and disaster recovery testing. CBackups is used by individuals with small-scale needs as well as organizations requiring ongoing data protection, with ecosystem plugins and integrations extending its capabilities in diverse environments.
