SQL Backup™
Licensing and purchasing
We license SQL Backup per server to keep things transparent - for you and us. 'Server' in this context refers to a distinct system running a Windows operating system with SQL Server
For example, if you have five physical servers you want to perform backups on, each running a Windows operating system with SQL Server, you will need a five-server license of SQL Backup.
Clustered environment
If your servers are clustered, whether it's active/passive or active/active, you will need a license for each node that is running SQL Server.
Virtual environment
If you host your servers in a virtual environment, you will need a single server license for each virtual server that runs SQL Server. For example, if you have five physical servers hosting 10 virtual servers, you will need a 10-server license of SQL Backup.

Purchasing
SQL Backup Pro is priced from $795 per server. SQL Backup Lite is priced from $295 per server. Discounts are available for multiple license purchases.
The SQL Backup Bundle also starts from $995, offering a suite of database administration tools, including SQL Backup Pro, at a lower cost than purchasing each tool in the bundle individually.
If you need telephone support, email support, and free upgrades, you can purchase a year's maintenance contract for 25% of the cost of the license(s). Two- and three-year maintenance contracts are also available, whether you purchase your license(s) through the sales support team or online.
"We have been using SQL Backup for over two years now. I have been highly impressed with the organization's support team, as all my questions were either already answered on the online forum, or quickly handled by a representative."
