History of SnapShooter
Most Popular Documentation Content
SnapShooter was born in 2017 as a solution to better DigitalOcean backups
Simon Bennett
I founded SnapShooter at the start of 2017 after I wanted to improve DigitalOcean's backup offering while trying to protect a client's fleet of WordPress DigitalOcean servers.
The idea of SnapShooter was born, and for its first three years we focused solely on DigitalOcean servers and then DigitalOcean volume backups.
Our customers love the simple interface we have, with all the complex handling of backup rotation handled behind the scenes.
At the end of 2018 due to increased customer numbers and product vision Jordan came on-board to help with technical support and development, and at the same time my wife also joined to take over the finance side of the business.
In 2020 the focus on SnapShooter became more broad to cover not only DigitalOcean but other providers. Our customers always wanted a way to move there backups offsite and we developed a easy way for customers to replicate server data to storage provider. We developed this as well as updated our dashboard to make management easier.
