GitProtect Backup for GitHub
Netguru is one of the fastest-growing digital acceleration consultancies in the EU based in Poland with over 14 years on the market, 900+ experts on board, and 1K+ projects delivered. Netguru builds digital products that let people do things differently. The company has already managed to change the way people learn languages, listen to music, rent bikes and even do banking. However, in this flood of creativity, Netguru always puts customers’ safety as its first priority. With this value in mind multiplied by the lack of a native data backup kept in platforms such as GitHub, Netguru decided to change its way to protect GitHub repositories and metadata to ensure that it has redundancy in place for itself and its customers’ intellectual property if GitHub is suddenly down. Previously, Netguru built custom scripts and backed up its data to Google drive or S3 buckets, but the company didn’t have a possibility to back up their metadata. Moreover, it was both time-consuming, unreliable, and inefficient, which, in its turn, didn’t meet the organization’s legal requirements.
I can set up a backup plan and have a high level of confidence that it is going to work. I worked with other backup products for different IT services and never felt [until now] comfortable that the backup plan was going to work as expected.
