Features

Our cloud computer backup software blends automation, security, and control so you can protect every endpoint with confidence.
Incremental backups
Block-level tracking only copies changed bytes, keeping bandwidth lean while deduplicating even open files.
Scheduling
Create recurring backup tasks that respect time zones and blackout windows, with simple start times and repeat intervals.
Immutable snapshots
Every run saves a clean restore point so you can roll back to a point-in-time without risking tampered data.
Software restores
Restore files straight from the desktop client, browsing versions and controllers without leaving the interface.
Cloud restores
Launch restores from the web portal for full or granular recovery, with version-aware browsing and quick file retrieval.
Team management
Group machines by team, apply shared policies, and manage access and visibility from one web portal dashboard.
Roles & quotas
Define Admin and User roles, then set per-team quotas for devices and storage to control costs and prevent overuse.
Central control
Manage packages, quotas, and backup tasks from the web portal, including remotely starting and pausing jobs.
Monitoring & alerts
Real-time dashboards and notifications keep you informed about job success, warnings, or failures.
Security
Every endpoint uses HTTPS, mutual TLS, and AWS S3 protocols, with client-side AES-256 CTR encryption.
Ransomware mitigation
Immutable, versioned snapshots isolate suspicious changes before they spread.
Reseller ready
White-label the software and portal to resell backups under your brand with custom logos and dashboards.
Compliance & locality
POPIA and GDPR ready, storing data inside our Pretoria datacenter with redundant power & cooling.

FAQ

Webway computer backup is software which you install on your computer (Windows, Mac, Linux) which enables you to backup important files to the cloud.

Webway computer backup is fundamentally different from file synchronization services like Dropbox and Google Drive:

  • True Backup vs. File Sync: While Dropbox/Google Drive primarily synchronize files across devices, Webway computer backup creates secure, versioned backups with point-in-time snapshots that protect against data corruption, accidental deletions, and ransomware attacks.
  • Ransomware Protection: Our snapshot-based approach preserves historical versions of your files, allowing you to restore data from before a ransomware infection occurred. File sync services typically sync infected or encrypted files, potentially spreading the damage.
  • Deduplication & Incremental Backups: We only back up changed portions of files, optimizing storage and bandwidth usage, unlike sync services that typically upload entire files when changes occur.
  • Compliance & Security: All data is encrypted with AES-256 encryption at rest and in transit, with compliance for POPIA and GDPR regulations. Your backup data remains secure and inaccessible to unauthorized parties.
  • Centralized Management: Unlike consumer sync tools, our solution provides enterprise-grade management features including team management, quota controls, and centralized monitoring of all backup activities.

Webway computer backup is designed specifically for data protection and disaster recovery, not just file accessibility across devices.

Your data security is our top priority. We implement multiple layers of protection:

  • AES-256 Encryption: All data is encrypted with bank-grade AES-256 encryption both in transit and at rest
  • Private Key Option: You can use your own private encryption key for maximum security
  • Secure Data Centers: All data is stored in our state-of-the-art, privately-run data center in Pretoria, South Africa
  • HTTPS Transfer: All data transfers use secure HTTPS protocols with strong key exchange and ciphers
  • Compliance: Fully compliant with POPIA and GDPR regulations

Our backup solution is optimized for speed and efficiency:

  • Incremental Backups: Only changed portions of files are backed up after the initial backup
  • Deduplication: We identify and eliminate duplicate data blocks to minimize storage and transfer time
  • Multi-threaded Uploads: Multiple files can be uploaded simultaneously for faster backup completion
  • Bandwidth Throttling: You can control upload/download speeds to avoid impacting your network performance
  • Local Network: Since our data centers are in South Africa, you benefit from local network speeds without international latency

Webway computer backup supports virtually all file types and systems:

  • Operating Systems: Windows (7+), macOS (10.10+), Linux (Ubuntu, CentOS, Debian)
  • File Types: All file types including documents, photos, videos, databases, and application files
  • Database Support: MySQL, PostgreSQL, Microsoft SQL Server, and other database systems
  • Large Files: No file size restrictions - perfect for large databases, video files, and disk images
  • Network Drives: Backup files from mapped network drives and external storage devices

We provide flexible retention policies to meet your business needs:

  • Version History: Keep multiple versions of files with configurable retention periods
  • Snapshots: Create point-in-time snapshots that are preserved indefinitely until you delete them

Absolutely! Our solution is designed with businesses in mind:

  • Centralized Management: Manage all computers and backup tasks from a single web dashboard
  • Team Management: Create teams, assign roles, and set quotas for different departments
  • Reporting: Comprehensive reporting on backup status, storage usage, and compliance
