I love this module. Been using it for about a month and it saves me hours of hassle every week.
It allows you to selectively backup tables and data from your database, so the backup is much *cleaner* than I used to get when using mysqldump from the command line. It's also much faster. I can quickly create a backup of my live site, upload it into my local site or qa or sandbox or whatever... and be back to real work in a couple of minutes or less.
It also allows you to schedule backups, which is really nice to have.
Overall ... this is one of the best utility modules I've discovered for drupal in a long time.
This is a simple backup util for Drupal that should be in core, only additional suggestion is to backup the /sites directory as well.
Great stuff!
I am using this module with Drupal 6 to copy configurations from one installation to the next and the beta is working quiet well. Just the multi-select option lists should be replaced by checkboxes, because this would be easier to use (don't click without holding down the ctrl key!). So 4 points for "Ease Of Use", but it's indeed a very useful module.
Genius module, best one I've downloaded in ages. Does exactly what you want it to do, in a straight-out-the-box kind of way. This is really, really, great.
Ok, I am probably the hardest rater on this site. 3 means average. And I must admit I never read this modules documentation. (OOPS)!
Well gratefully, it is perfect. It is so well done that you don't need any documentation to use it1
This module is perfect. Does what it says perfectly. I was able to take a production site, install this module, backup the database and re-create it on my dev server in about 4 minutes!
This took me about 3 hours or more previously.
I can't say enough good things about this module. I will never do Drupal without one. What a lifesaver. Backup as I am developing the site - every time I screw things up really badly - do a quick restore and everything is all better. What a pleasure!
Integrated Powerful Database Backup Tool für Drupal 5.x and 6.x.
It's very fast and easy to config. Very helpful if you want to test new modules. I have tested the latest version 6.x-1.x-dev (2008-Mar-31) and it's working fine.
Does this site make your life easier? Help me keep it online. Bandwidth and server costs are more than $220/month.
"Lightbox is becoming more and more prevalent in sites and this module makes integrating with Drupal very..."
