About Setting up NovaBACKUP

Helping You Get Your Data Back in Case of Data Loss

With a focus on SMBs and Service Providers that support small- and medium-sized companies, NovaBACKUP strives to create a simple, reliable backup solution that aligns with common compliance requirements.

Fast local and cloud backup is always included. Setting up backup storage devices and backup jobs is easier than ever. And you can run backups more often without compromising your network's performance, ensuring you always have access to the latest changes in your customers' data in case of a restore. Experience this and more as soon as you get started with NovaBACKUP!

Incremental Forever Backup

NovaBACKUP uses an incremental forever backup scheme for both local and cloud backups. This approach enables more frequent backups because each backup only includes block- or file-level changes since the last backup.

However, by keeping references to all parts of every selected file or folder in each backup, the restore chain is never interrupted. This means you can restore anything from any point in time without searching for individual backup files. NovaBACKUP does that for you.


Set Up Local and Cloud Backups

From the Central Management

With NovaBACKUP Managed Backup, you can do everything right from the Central Management - monitor, set up, and edit your customers' backups, and restore anything in case of a disaster.

This video shows you how to download and install the local agent, connect your local and cloud backup devices, and set up your backup jobs from the Central Management.

Local Backup From the Local Agent

If you are using NovaBACKUP PC Agent or Server Agent instead of our Managed Backup solution, this video will show you how to connect your backup device and create your customers' backup jobs from the local agent.

Cloud Backup From the Local Agent

If you would like to add cloud backup to your NovaBACKUP PC or Server Agent deployment, this video will explain how to create a cloud storage account (if your license includes our NovaBACKUP Cloud), connect to it, and create a backup job.


Hybrid Backup Jobs

With NovaBACKUP, you can set up a single backup job that backs up your data to local and cloud storage simultaneously, including retention rules for each destination.
