It sends a backup every X hours/every X days of your Joomla database in a zip file to one or multiple emails.
The best and easiest automatic backup method for Joomla 1.5! Doesn't need server tools like cron or scheduled tasks.
It's easy to restore your database via the import function of PhpMyAdmin.

For real, I love this component. I have used it on all the sites I have built, however, I have to remain with version 1.3 since the new 2.x version breaks my sites access to RsForms! Can't seem to find anyone else with this problem, but it has happened on each and every site I have done. Remove 2.x and install 1.3 and behold! Everything works Great!

Use JoomlaPack for total backup and LazyBackup for daily backup.

This is a plugin everyone should use. It saves me alot of time from manually backing up my site every day. And its saved online on my email account so I can't lose it that easily!

You cant go with out this plugin. Install it, enable it and it send you backups of your database as often as you like. Great if you have over 40 sites to worry about. This takes all the worry about having to do it manually...
Great work guys, hope to see another great extension soon.

Thanks to LazyBackup I could restore the entire site - articles and all - within few seconds.
As a tool I used PhPMyAdmin.
This really saved me from doing God knows how many hours of work with restoring and rewriting all the articles I've published, and from now on I will sleep much more easier, knowing that backup is taken care of!

What else can you ask for?
-Easy install.
-Easy to configure.
-It can save SQL db to the local website.
-It can even email db to your email address (zipped) everyday if you want.
-FREE
AWESOME!! Very good work. Thanks again.

Your welcome. Joomla is free, thats why this is free :o)
You can allso chose to password protect the zipfile !
I have numerous Joomla! sites that I'm responsible for. I could set up some scheduled jobs to make backups and save them to a certain location... bla bla bla... but in this environment, time is always at a premium and these things, more than not, end happening later than sooner. HOWEVER! With this little gem, I can install it, set it up to send to my "backup@" email address, and forget about it. Excellent work!

This plug-in is just what the doctor ordered. It works perfectly, I am installing it to all of my client's websites. I love how you can send the backup to multiple email addresses. Copy to me, copy to client. Used along with JoomlaPack for added peace of mind.
Thank you, thank you!!!
Thank you, thank you!!!

Just verify your backup right after your first try! It might happen that you only backed up a database structure without any of your individual content.
Owner's reply
If you mess with the plugin, fx selecting only structure, that will happen.
My guess is that your database somehow was screwed up or you changed something.

Excellent help from Stefan. I made some beginners foulds and Stefan took care for it. Thanks. Super Service!

Does exactly what it sets out to do. Took 2 mins to install, enter my email address and get a backup mailed to me. The file then imported without error into my local copy of the site.
Only one minor niggle - backups are scheduled so I can't go into the admin panel and send a copy of the db immediately when I have made changes to the site.
