Fresh new website update!

 


After a year, we decide to do a refresh of our website and move it to a new platform at the same time.

The updated site has a nice new fresh look, is responsive and works really well across all platforms, and is easy to navigate.

As part of the update we also needed to find a new place for our blogs and decided to leverage the Blogger platform from Google. Hope it will work well for all!

SmartBackup R4 Update

This new website update coincides with the release of our latest version of SmartBackup for Smartsheet. This new version includes several key updates to the Console interface, including new guidance that is provided on each screen, which provides overviews of each function and feature, as well as a new "Automation" section in the settings menu.

The new Automation feature aims to make it easier to define recurring scheduled backups, archives, and exports, without having to open the Task Scheduler application.

We have also introduced several enhancements to the Settings screen to help improve the configuration of the application.

And there's more!

We have been working on the licensing model and now have a more granular tiered model for the Enterprise Editions. If you have 10 or more Smartsheet licensed users, you should really ensure that you have a robust backup solution in place. If this  is you, feel free to contact us for more details.

Remember: 

  • There are various reasons for having backups. In climbing, a backup can save your life, but with data, a backup can save your business!
  • Many people assume that if it’s in the cloud, it’s protected. But for most SaaS apps like Smartsheet, there is a shared responsibility for keeping your data safe.
Contact us for more details about backing up your Smartsheet content, and visit our newly updated website for details, videos, and to download a free copy of our Starter Edition.

SmartBackup User Guides

  With SmartBackup installed, your organization and your Smartsheet users can rest assured that their Smartsheet data is secured! Then, when things go wrong, it is good to know that there is a way to recover lost or deleted data, or to revert back to earlier versions of the data. But as an end user, how do you do that? If some of my rows get deleted, how do I recover that information? If a formula gets changed by mistake, how do I go back to an earlier version of the formula? And worse - what if a formula gets deleted? These are all excellent questions, and there are many more similar scenarios, such as reverting to an earlier version of a Form, or a drop down list, for example. Well, thank goodness for SmartBackup ! With SmartBackup running in your organization it is quite easy to restore deleted rows, or revert to an earlier version of a formula or a form, and revert to earlier versions of your data. At AcuWorkflow , we are excited to announce that we have created a collection of...

Introducing SmartBackup Queues Have you ever experienced standing in line at the grocery store when only one checkout register is open? Let’s discuss how SmartBackup can help address that type of issue for your Smartsheet backups. Queues, they can either be really frustrating and time-consuming, or when operating correctly, they can also provide an efficient way to process many concurrent requests. This applies to grocery line checkout queues as much as it also applies to IT process queues. Let’s set the scene… I’m sure that most people have had an experience where you would go to the grocery store on a busy day, do all your shopping and then go to the checkout registers, only to find that there is only one checkout register open. This by itself would not normally be a problem, if there are only a few customers in the store, or if most of the customers are only buying a handful of items. But invariably, in these cases there will always be at least one guy who has his shopping cart fill...

SmartBackup for Smartsheet Platform Advisory

Image
UPDATE: March 17, 2023. After extensive investigation, research, testing, and analysis, together with the Smartsheet Product Team,  we have recently discovered that some Smartsheet customers are using the Upload File Attachments feature in Smartsheet extensively.  While this is permissible, it is important to know that there may be consequences, and this scenario could mean that it will not be possible to create a full backup, or a full export copy of your Smartsheet environment. For more details, please review the   Smartsheet File Attachments Storage Guide. In the case of some SmartBackup customers who are using the Upload File Attachment feature extensively, we have encountered intermittent timeout errors, and overly long backup durations, which render the backup and export processes ineffective. Note that this is not a shortcoming of the SmartBackup solution or the Smartsheet platform, but more of an issue with the way that the Smartsheet platform has been u...
