Hi There

We are a UK company using Airtable to manage / power all areas of our business.

We absolutely love the product but are becoming a little nervous with downtime incidents.

This is because our companies workforce is simply paralysed without it.

We would like to implement a basic form of 3rd party backup / restore service.

We’ve just setup an account with On2Air to evaluate their offering.

Appreciate there’s a bunch of previous posts on this topic but would appreciate links to any recent services or with what you may be using successfully. 

Thank you for your help in advance. 🙏

@no-code 

There are only 2 backup solutions for Airtable that will backup all of your data and metadata:
On2Air Backups and ProBackup.io.

But remember that no backup tool can backup your interfaces, automations, views, forms, etc.

If you only need to backup your data, you can use a tool like CSV Getter.

You can also create your own automated data backups to CSV, Excel, or Google Sheets by using Make’s CSV integrationsMake’s Excel integrations, or Make’s Google Sheets integrations.

I demonstrate how to export CSV files out of Airtable using Make on this Airtable podcast episode.

If you’ve never used Make before, I’ve assembled a bunch of Make training resources in this thread. For example, here is one of the ways that you could instantly trigger a Make automation from Airtable

Hope this helps!

If you have a budget and you’d like to hire the best Airtable consultant to help you with this or anything else that is Airtable-related, please feel free to contact me through my website: Airtable consultant — ScottWorld

mate,

You don’t need buy 3rd party backup ( yet).  You need a plan.   All system goes down; it’s unavoidable.

 

most serious company have a things called “Business Continuity Plan(BCP)”.  check this https://www.cyber.gov.au/business-government/small-business-cyber-security/small-business-hub/business-continuity-in-a-box

you can use this as reference guid.

 

Use today’s lesson to build BCP for you, it takes time.

Use AI  Gemini, Claude, ChatGPT  to guiding what your BCP could looks like. You the only person know the answer. 
 

Cheers

Dave
