Block-level incremental backups, MySQL hot-backup, bare-metal restore via R1Soft Live CD, and self-service file or full-account recovery through cPanel via JetBackup 5 — the same enterprise stack global hosts run, priced in flat PKR with Pakistan off-site storage. Pakistan's only published per-server backup SKU with a named engine.
Off site backups for VPS and dedicated servers, stored away from the machine itself so a compromised server does not take its own backups with it. Full image and file level backups with deduplication to keep storage down, and encryption in transit and at rest. You choose the retention period rather than being given a fixed one, because a compliance requirement and a personal project need very different things. From PKR 1,499 a month for 100 GB. Works with cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, Linux and Windows.
R1Soft Server Backup Manager (a ConnectWise product) and JetBackup 5 (JetApps) — the two backup platforms most named PK hosts use behind the scenes but never advertise. We license both directly, name them on the page, and run R1Soft 6.18+ (fully patched against CVE-2022-36537).
Continuous Data Protection at the disk-block layer — kernel agents intercept disk writes every 15 minutes minimum, so only changed blocks ship to the vault. Bandwidth and storage stay efficient even on 500 GB+ servers.
Backup and restore controls integrated directly inside cPanel and WHM — end users restore their own files, databases or emails without opening a ticket. JetApps reports a typical 70% reduction in backup-related support tickets after rollout.
Every tier ships with R1Soft CDP block-level backups, JetBackup 5 self-service restore, daily snapshots, Pakistan off-site vault and unlimited restores. Retention scales from 30 days on Small to 90 days on Dedicated. Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud for a comparable workload runs roughly Rs 14,000+/mo per server, and Hostinger's VPS daily-backup add-on (Lithuania-stored) is Rs 1,680/mo with no R1Soft engine and no cPanel-integrated self-restore.

R1Soft images the disk at the block layer, while JetBackup 5 exposes account / file / database / email-level restore through cPanel. Recover a full server to fresh hardware, or just one mistakenly-deleted file — same vault, same retention window.
Complete disk image including OS, filesystem and boot sector — restore the entire server to fresh hardware via R1Soft Live CD ISO or PXE boot when a physical failure happens.
Only changed disk blocks ship to the vault every cycle — bandwidth and storage stay 10-50x leaner than file-level backups, even on 500 GB+ servers. Daily run completes in minutes, not hours.
MySQL hot-backup add-on coordinates a brief FLUSH-TABLES snapshot so the database stays online during backup. PostgreSQL, MongoDB and other databases captured at filesystem-snapshot level — consistent and restorable.
Restore one file, one folder, one cPanel account, one mailbox or a single email — JetBackup 5 exposes every restore level through the panel. Full-server restore is the option, not the obligation.
Karachi-based off-site vault on infrastructure separate from your live server, with optional EU geo-redundant copy on Large and Dedicated tiers. A single data centre incident never costs you both the live server and its backup.
AES-256 encryption on the vault, TLS 1.3 in transit. Compliance posture suitable for PCI DSS, SBP fintech and ISO 27001 audit trails — Pakistan tax-compliant invoices (NTN + STRN) provided every billing cycle.
HostingWalay tiers in PKR: Small Rs 999/mo (1 server, ≤50 GB, 30-day retention), Medium Rs 2,499/mo (≤200 GB, hourly snapshot option), Large Rs 4,999/mo (≤500 GB, 60-day retention, bare-metal restore), Dedicated Rs 7,999/mo (≤2 TB, 90-day retention). For comparison: Hostinger VPS daily backups add-on is roughly Rs 1,680/mo (stored in Lithuania), GoDaddy VPS gives 7-day snapshots + $2.99/mo (~Rs 837) for extended storage, Namecheap charges $10 per 10 GB (~Rs 280/GB) which scales painfully, and Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud for a comparable workload starts around Rs 14,000/mo per server. Among PK competitors — HosterPK, WebSouls, HostBreak, domain.pk, CreativeON — none publish a per-server backup price; backup is either bundled opaquely or only included in managed VPS plans (HostBreak Rs 4,200/mo managed).
Website Backup (from Rs 499/mo) is account-level — covers one or more cPanel accounts with files, databases, mailboxes and SSL configs. Right for customers on shared hosting or single-site VPS. Server Backup (this page, from Rs 999/mo) is the whole VPS or dedicated server — bare-metal disk image + all cPanel accounts + OS configs + databases. Right when you control the full server and need disaster-recovery-grade protection. If you only have one website on shared hosting, start with Website Backup; if you run a full VPS/dedicated with multiple accounts or custom services, this is the correct tier.
Yes — we run R1Soft Server Backup 6.18 and later, fully patched against CVE-2022-36537 (the ZK Framework authentication-bypass vulnerability exploited against R1Soft Server Backup Manager in late 2022). We also restrict the SBM web console to allow-listed admin IPs and run JetBackup 5 only on the latest stable channel. Every PK host running R1Soft should be on 6.18+; we make a point of saying so on this page.
If the whole server fails, hardware dies or a data centre incident wipes the live machine, you can rebuild the entire server (OS, filesystems, configs, all accounts and data) on fresh hardware. Mechanically: boot the new server from the R1Soft Live CD ISO or PXE, connect to the backup vault, choose the restore point, and the disk image rebuilds block-for-block. It's not a one-click console action — recovery is physical-or-virtual-console driven — but our Karachi engineer walks you through it on the call and provides the ISO. Typical full bare-metal restore for a 200 GB VPS completes in 60-90 minutes.
Yes — on Medium / Large / Dedicated tiers, your cPanel end users log into their own cPanel account and see a JetBackup 5 panel with restore controls for files, databases, mailboxes and individual emails. They click the restore point, click "Restore", and the recovery happens without your admin involvement. JetApps reports a typical 70% reduction in backup-related support tickets after JetBackup 5 rollout. For unmanaged VPS resellers this is the strongest single argument for picking us over a host that doesn't disclose the engine.
R1Soft's kernel-level CDP agent runs in the background with low CPU overhead (typically under 5%) and I/O is throttled so live workload latency stays stable. The default schedule is 1-2 AM PKT — the lowest-traffic window for Pakistani audiences. Hourly incremental snapshots on Medium / Large tiers each take seconds because only changed disk blocks ship. We've never had a customer report a measurable response-time impact during backups.
Yes — we offer external server backup. If your VPS or dedicated server is hosted with any major cloud provider, an overseas host or on-premise hardware, we install the R1Soft agent on it and ship backups to our Karachi off-site vault over an encrypted TLS 1.3 channel. Setup is a 30-minute remote session and we provide hardening recommendations for the backup-agent firewall rules. Pakistan-based data residency for backups even if your live server runs elsewhere.
14-day money-back guarantee on first-time purchases — full refund to the original payment method. Cancel anytime after the first month from the billing panel; service stops at the end of the current cycle with a 7-day window to download a final off-site copy of all retained restore points. Payment in PKR via JazzCash, EasyPaisa, HBL / Meezan / UBL / Allied bank transfer or local Visa / MasterCard — no USD card required, unlike Acronis, Hostinger, GoDaddy or Namecheap. Pakistan tax-compliant invoices (NTN + STRN) on every billing cycle for FBR filing.
