About Ottomatik

Ottomatik is a small backup service that copies databases and files from your servers to cloud storage you control, on a schedule, and alerts you when something fails. It is aimed at PHP and Laravel developers, freelancers and small agencies who host applications on their own VPS servers and do not want to write and babysit backup scripts.

You connect a server, choose databases such as MySQL or PostgreSQL and the directories to include, then set a schedule and a retention policy. Backups are stored in your own destination, such as an Amazon S3 bucket, so the data does not stay with the vendor. Notifications report failed or missed jobs, and restores can be started with one click. Pricing is a simple monthly subscription: Lite covers a few daily backup jobs, while Professional and Agency add many more jobs, more frequent backups and API access. There is no permanent free tier.

Ottomatik fits teams who want reliable off-site database backups without building the tooling themselves. The scope is narrow: there is no full server imaging, the vendor is small, integrations are limited and the interface is basic. The open-source spatie/laravel-backup package is free if you are comfortable maintaining it, SimpleBackups covers a broader range of databases and storage providers, and managed database services from your cloud provider include automated backups by default. Because you choose the storage region, it is also easier to keep backups where your data protection rules require.
