There are plenty of reasons to choose JoomlaPack instead of another competitive site backup product. It all comes down to feature richness, total cost of ownership and support. Here is the top ten features JoomlaPack offers - which others won't:

• One click full site backup. JoomlaPack backs up your site files and your site database in one go. It can even backup non-Joomla! scripts and their MySQL databases along with your Joomla! site, without any compromise! It will even include a restoration script inside the archive (derived from the standard Joomla! installer) to make restoring your site a piece of cake.
• Robust operation. Capable of running on AJAX-powered or plain JavaScript mode, JoomlaPack will chunk the backup operation in order to avoid the server timing out, even with multi-gigabyte sites. JoomlaPack supports backing up and restoring MySQL VIEWs (since 2.3). It also supports backing up and restoring symbolic links ("symlinks") in JPA and ZIP archives (also, since 2.3)
• Restoration made easy. JoomlaPack offers the Kickstart tool to ease the restoration procedure, even if you face a complete site destruction! In a nutshell, all you have to do is upload two files: Kickstart and your backup archive. Kickstart will take care of everything else, including getting rid of itself and the backup archive when the restoration procedure is over.
• Move your site between hosts. Do you want to move your site to a new hosting service? Would you like to set up a staging site, an exact clone of your live site where you can test new components and layouts? Do you want to debug a site without putting it offline? JoomlaPack comes to your rescue! With its renowned technology it is able to restore your site on a different host than the one the backup was taken from, even on a different platform (e.g. from a Linux host running Apache to a Windows Server host running IIS).
• Rich collection of filters. JoomlaPack is able to exclude individual files and directories, or database tables. The selection process is done with a graphical interface, unlike our competition. Simply put, there's no more guesswork regarding the path to the folder you want to exclude. With JoomlaPack it's as easy as ABC.
• Unattended and remote backup modes. Backup is a necessary evil, but finding the time to do it is a drag. Computers are great at doing specific tasks on a predefined schedule, so why should you backup your site manually? With JoomlaPack's "front-end backup mode" and/or CRON scripts manager you can schedule backup to happen automatically (external tools such as cron and wget are required). Worried about reaching your storage quota? JoomlaPack can remove old backups based on their number or size if you'd like! Picky host with a restriction on the maximum size of a single file? Use split ZIP and split JPA to work around it! Don't even want to launch a browser? No problem, you can use our JoomlaPack Remote application, part of the JoomlaPack Native Tools.
• Easy backup administration. JoomlaPack keeps a log of each and every backup attempt you made. Based on this information it allows you to download, delete or restore the backup. The restoration procedure is password-protected to avoid potential mishaps. Multiple backup profiles allow you to create different backup sets, for example allowing you to have a "light" daily backup and a "fully loaded" weekly one. JoomlaPack even includes on-line help, in case you get stuck in one of its countless fine-tuning options.
• Minimal Total Cost of Ownership - Maximal Return of Investment. JoomlaPack is a free, open source component. We don't charge a single penny for downloading it. You can use it on as many (or as few) sites as you want, without any further obligation. We are so confident on our code quality that we offer free, zero-day support through our support forum. This means that should you have any problem or question regarding JoomlaPack you can post it there and our support personnel will respond within a calendar day. That's right! We even support you on weekends and holidays!
• Active and proactive development. We don't stop evolving this software. To this end, we release early and often, with the proper amount of testing. Our mean release time for stable versions (with major enhancements) is only 3-4 months. We are rigorously testing JoomlaPack and react quickly to confirmed and potential bugs alike. A dedicated, international team of volunteers (JATS) makes sure that the software is tested on an assortment of live servers before being released to the public.
• Accredited, open source software. We strongly beleive in the merits of the Open Source software model. In fact, we strive to pushing the Open Source model to new limits. Our rigorous attempts have lead to our nomination as the second Editor's Pick in the New Joomla! Extensions Directory and nominated us for the second place in the Ultimate Joomla! Component Top Ten competition hosted by JoomlaShack. We are humbed and honoured by these nominations and we promise it will only make us work harder for this project!
