You simply need to connect your server to Snapshooter, and configure your first backup job. Our service will then backup your applications according to your personal configuration!

Can you restore a Single Site?
Yes! Each website on your server gets a separate database and file system backup allowing you to restore a single database or file system. You are free to select as many or as little segments of the backup to restore from using our recovery system.
SnapShooter gives us infinite flexibility in configuring our backup policies and frees us from the confines of rigid, bare-bones functionality provided by VM vendors themselves.
