PROJECT BRIEF

There are many web portals that create websites in few clicks but what about regular backups? Sitesafe solves that problem for you!

Sitesafe is designed especially for a non-technical audience who are managing their sites by themselves and want to take regular back-ups. The user first needs to register and purchase a space with Sitesafe. Once done, the User has to provide FTP details of the website(Which he wants to back-up regularly) and choose a back-up duration. The system will first validate and notify a user if provided FTP details are not accurate. On successful form submission, the system will take regular back-ups and creates a restore point for each backup. At any point, if the need arises, the user can set the system back to that restore point.
