Cloud Backup - Google Workspace

Cloud Backup for Google Workspace


Google does not provide a comprehensive, dedicated backup service for your Google Workspace data. While Google maintains high-availability infrastructure and provides tools for data retention and legal compliance, it is your responsibility to protect your data against loss.

Our backup solution is built to bridge the gap between Google's limited native recovery tools and the need for a robust, long-term disaster recovery strategy for your school.


Key Capabilities
    • Centralised Backup: It automatically pulls data from your Google Workspace tenant (including Gmail, Google Drive (My Drive and Shared Drives), Google Contacts, and Google Calendar).
    • Auto-discovery: New users or Shared Drives created in your Google Workspace can be automatically detected and added to your backup tasks.
    • Flexible Scheduling: Supports scheduled, manual, or continuous backup modes.
    • Storage Efficiency: The app uses single-instancing (storing identical files only once across all users) and block-level deduplication to ensure your backup storage space is used as efficiently as possible.


Important: Your data storage requirements and retention needs may evolve over time. To ensure your Google Workspace environment remains fully protected, additional 500GB storage blocks may be provisioned as your data footprint grows.
