Backup Routine

The system is automatically backed up, however you can have a manual back up routine in addition to this. It is strongly recommended that you do a manual backup of the system in line with your internal policies. You will have an escrow agreement with Dizions Ltd which allows you access to the software under certain circumstances. With a copy of the software and your manual backups you will be able to restore the data locally.

Automatic Backup

The automatic backup does not required any configuration and is run overnight, 7 days a week. Each backup file is kept for 60 days.

Manual Backup

It is recommended that you do manual backups in line with your internal IT policies. The "Backup System" page allows two types of download:

  • Full backup of database data (apart from uploaded documents) in SQL format.
  • Backup of uploaded documents.


Database Data as SQL
