OwnBackup.com provides data backup and recovery as a service for businesses that rely on SaaS applications like Salesforce. The core product automates backups of SaaS data, sends proactive alerts for data loss or corruption, and offers easy recovery tools to restore data quickly. It also seeds quality data into sandbox or sub-prod environments for development, testing, and training, and archives obsolete production data to improve performance and control costs. The service is offered on a subscription basis. Compared with competitors, OwnBackup differentiates itself by specializing in SaaS data protection (especially Salesforce), providing proactive risk notifications, sandbox data provisioning, and data management insights to strengthen security posture and compliance. The company’s goal is to help customers protect their data, manage exposure risks, improve performance, and ensure regulatory compliance while simplifying data governance through a scalable SaaS platform.
