Yes, you heard it here first. We have a decade of backing up the internet!
JetBackup was initially developed by our founder, Eli Alum, to provide self-service on-demand backup and restore functionality to the customers of his hosting company, JetServer. After a successful launch and overall reduction in support costs, he realized how valuable this feature would be to the wider hosting community and made JetBackup commercially available in 2014. Over the years, JetBackup quickly grew in popularity and has become the #1 rated backup software among hosting providers.
JetBackup’s unique backup structure provides cross-platform support across all the major control panels, including cPanel, DirectAdmin, and Plesk, and seamless integrations into most security and storage platforms.
Here are some of the staggering numbers that demonstrate JetBackup’s impact:

Enhance your Ransomware Protection Strategy with JetBackup
Ransomware attacks are a growing threat to businesses and individuals alike. These malicious attacks encrypt data, rendering it inaccessible until a ransom is paid. With the rise of AI and decentralized cryptocurrencies, ransomware attacks have become easier to implement and harder to trace. For hosting companies, the stakes are even higher, as these attacks can affect multiple clients simultaneously, leading to data loss, financial damage, and significant operational downtime. The good news is that JetBackup offers a reliable solution, ensuring that data can be quickly restored even during any attack, safeguarding business continuity and peace of mind for both the hosting provider and their clients.
