SQLBackupAndFTP full changelog

Main Window:
The main window is now divided into three sections: job list on the left, job execution history with restore on the right and job settings in the center.
Job List:
All backup jobs are now displayed in a single list as opposed to separate .jobx files for each job in previous versions. This allows you to manage all jobs in one screen instead of opening them one by one. The red exclamation mark to the left of job’s name indicates that the last backup has failed, while the green check mark indicates that everything went fine.
Job History and Restore:
When you select a job from the left panel you can see all its backups in the right panel. Moreover, there you can look at a detailed execution log, download or even restore the database from the selected backup wherever the backup is located. Previously you had to use a separate utility to restore backups, now you can restore your backups right from the application. This works with Full, Differential, and Transaction Log backups. They will be automatically downloaded from the destination folder, then unpacked, and restored on the database.
Job Settings:
In the middle panel you can see all backup job settings placed in step-by-step order. It makes the setup process easier especially for the new ones. Also, yellow tool tips guide you if you’re not sure what to do next.
There are five main steps to follow: from connecting to SQL Server down to setting up email notifications. All other settings are optional and hidden under the “More settings…” link. So, there is no good old Advanced Settings dialog, all advanced settings are presented as job setup steps.
You can either set up each step by clicking the blue gear icon or turn some functionality off and on using a switch. But, of course, not all of the steps are optional. For example, you can’t skip connection to SQL Server or database selection step.
For those who prefer using “Backup all non-system databases” option, there is a surprise here. Now y
