Rewind Backups

Fantastic app, highly recommend. Has saved my business on a number of occasions. Get it for peace of mind!

I found this app very easy to install which was great, the step by step tips were very helpful. I would definitely recommend this app.

The app you hope you never have to use! Set up is seamless and you can access your regular backups whenever. As Kurt Elster would say, this is the first app you should ever install on your store.

Great app, simple to use and just works. The support team are great and friendly too. This app is a must have for any store. If you don't have it then one day you will really wish you did. Thank you for your app and thank you for reading my review.

Installation was easy. Haven't had the chance to use it and I hope I never will.

Thousands of hours put into my store, I cant afford to lose it. www.bvsydney.com

This program is a lifesaver, wouldn't want to be without it!

This app has been fantastic! So easy to setup and it started backing up quickly and regularly backs up automatically. Such a relief to have this peace of mind that as we make changes, our previous info is saved and easily accessible. Also doesn't seem to slow things down at all

Very pleased with the combination of feature-richness and ease-of-use in this app. It has provided more than it's cost in peace of mind for our team.

I'm in the process of building a small Shopify store.

A couple of weeks ago I saw a Facebook post that caused me to pause.

"Is there a way to run [a] backup on a Shopify store? If you have a lot of products and the site crashes, it would be [a] mess to restore it product-by-product."

The post is from another member of J.R. Fisher's "The Art Of Ecommerce Success" closed Facebook group.

I'd assumed that Shopify backed up my store! I mean, I don't back up my Google or Dropbox cloud storage. Nor do I back up my online bank accounts.

A quick check confirmed that Shopify does not backup users' stores. Wow! It could take me days to restore all the products in my store -- causing a lot of lost sales and revenue!

I then set about researching backing up my Shopify store. Shopify provides instructions on manually backing up one's store to CSV files. A time consuming and laborious task, which would get even more time consuming and laborious if one had to restore one's store from the CSV files.

But it gets worse! Images are not backed up by the CSV process. Yikes! I'd have to keep separate backup copies of all the images, then integrate them back into the store after a crash! What a nightmare!

Fortunately, there is a very simple and easy to use solution. Which, for small stores like mine, is free! Namely, Rewind Backups by Rewind.

I installed Rewind Backups a couple of weeks ago and the app has been running automatically in the background without the need for any intervention from me. What peace of mind!

And best of all, I can now devote all the time I would have spent, dickering around on CSV and image backups, to revenue-generating activities.

At the moment my store is small (less than 2,000 items & 100 orders per month) enough to qualify for the free version of the Rewind App.

Note, items are data items, not products. Each product has multiple data items associated with it, and the store itself has additional data items that are backed up.

As my store grows I can sequentially upgrade plans to the Premium ($15/month, up to 500 orders/month), Pro ($39.00/month, up to 1,000 orders/month), and Plus ($99/month, up to 2,000 orders/month). Once the store has 2,000+ orders/month, the Enterprise plan starts at $299/month. As far as I know, there are no limits on the number of items with the paid plans.

What I particularly like about the pricing structure is that I can start for free and grow my store. By the time I need to upgrade to a paid plan, the store should be generating more than enough revenue to cover the cost.

Now back to revenue generating activities!
