  • Synthetic full backups that save time and network bandwidth
  • Additional full backups to meet compliance requirements

Backup Scheduling Overview

Backup only what’s changed. BDRShield captures changed blocks since the last full backup, reducing backup windows and storage consumption

Manually

Run incremental backups on demand. Navigate to Backup Jobs and execute backups whenever needed without automatic scheduling.

One Time

Schedule a single incremental backup at your specified time. Perfect for one-off backup requirements before major changes.

Every Few Hours/Minutes

Minimum 15-minute intervals for high-frequency protection. Select specific days or run daily across all seven days of the week.

Daily

Run incremental backups up to 5 times per day. Specify exact times for each backup to align with your business cycles and change windows.

Weekly

Schedule one incremental backup per day on your chosen days. Select the specific day and time that works best for your environment.

Monthly

Configure monthly incremental backups by selecting the month, day, and time. Ideal for less frequent backup requirements.

After Backup

Chain backup jobs together. Start this backup immediately after another backup job completes successfully for sequential processing.

Types of Full Backup

Synthetic Full Backup Scheduling
+
Synthetic full backups are created by intelligently merging your existing full backup with subsequent incremental backups. No additional load on source VMs or network infrastructure.

Weekly

Select one or more days for synthetic merge operations. Specify the day and start time to consolidate backups without impacting production.

Monthly

Schedule monthly synthetic merges by selecting months, specific days, and start times. Run consolidation operations during low-activity periods.

Note: Synthetic merge is disabled for Manually and One Time incremental schedules. Save your backup job without enabling synthetic merge if not required.

Additional Full Backup Scheduling
+
Meet compliance requirements with regular full backups. BDRShield creates true full backups on your schedule—daily, weekly, or monthly—ensuring policy adherence and backup chain integrity.

Daily

Run additional full backups every day at your specified time. Ideal for mission-critical systems requiring daily full backup checkpoints.

Weekly

Schedule additional full backups on one or more days per week. Select specific days and start times for full backup processing.

Monthly

Configure monthly full backups by selecting months, days, and times. Run quarterly or annual full backups to meet long-term retention policies.

Note: Additional full backup is disabled for Manually and One Time incremental schedules.

“I don’t think any platform can beat BDRSuite’s pricing. The cost is much lower than paying thousands per month for Datto, Kaseya, or Veeam”

Tony AshvanianBoom Logic

“I tried Veeam and Microsoft’s built-in BU. It was OK, but price, performance, and features caused BDRSuite to win out!”

Kenneth LombardoMicro Systems and Support

“It’s very cheap and it’s absolutely competitive. It’s very cheap compared to what I can charge my customers for the service.”
