Dropbox Backups
Discover more about the Dropbox Backup service provided inside the Hepsia Control Panel and see how to use it.
Dropbox is a file storage platform, that has been gaining a lot in popularity lately as it permits you to access any content stored on its servers from any device provided their software is set up. The information is synchronized between all devices, so you will be able to access it anytime. Dropbox does not offer Internet hosting services, thus if you upload an html file it won't display as a web page and won't be executed. The service is used exclusively for storing data and we've taken advantage of the fact that they provide an API to third-party businesses to create a backup service on our end, which you can use if you host your Internet sites on our web servers. With this extra feature you'll not have tobe worried about your content due to the fact that you'll always have a copy of your sites on the Dropbox servers and on your personal computer just in case that something happens - a script update failing, deleting files by accident, etcetera.
