Encrypted backups to storage you already own — no Backblaze subscription on top.
Small businesses get nickel-and-dimed by per-user pricing on helpdesks, forms, signatures and scheduling. One-time software makes the toolset a capital expense instead of a creeping payroll line.
The tool this job usually means renting is Backblaze Personal, at $9/mo — roughly $108 a year, every year. Syncvault does the job for a one-time $29 — running locally on your own machine.
Key is derived from your passphrase with scrypt, never uploaded and never stored in plaintext.
For small business owners, client-side AES-256-GCM pays off without adding another line to the monthly overhead — and it's covered by the same one-time $29, not metered per month.
Objects are keyed by SHA-256 of content, so identical or unchanged files upload exactly once.
For small business owners, content-addressed dedupe pays off without adding another line to the monthly overhead — and it's covered by the same one-time $29, not metered per month.
Keep the last N versions of every file and browse the backed-up tree as of any point in time to restore.
For small business owners, point-in-time versioning pays off without adding another line to the monthly overhead — and it's covered by the same one-time $29, not metered per month.
One payment of $29 gets you the signed Windows installer, or clone the MIT source at github.com/bensblueprints/data-backup-cloud-sync-mvp and run npm start yourself for free.
Pick a vault passphrase and point Syncvault at your own S3 bucket or a local/network folder.
Add the folders you care about, set a schedule, and hit Back up now — everything encrypts locally first.
Syncvault is $29, once. Backblaze Personal at $9/mo — roughly $108 a year, every year. A 100 GB backup is $29 once plus ~$7/yr of storage versus $108/yr on Backblaze — it pays for itself in about four months, then it's just bytes.
A 100 GB backup is $29 once plus ~$7/yr of storage versus $108/yr on Backblaze — it pays for itself in about four months, then it's just bytes. Syncvault costs $29 once; Backblaze Personal charges $9/mo — about $108 a year. For small business owners, that fixed cost is the whole point: the tool is a one-time line item, not a monthly one.
Yes — Syncvault is MIT-licensed at github.com/bensblueprints/data-backup-cloud-sync-mvp. The $29 buys the signed Windows installer and 1-click setup; building from source is free.
Nothing is locked up. The SV1 file format is documented, and your data is recoverable with ~20 lines of Node — no vendor lock-in, even from us.
