How to Switch from Backblaze Personal to Syncvault (Step-by-Step)

Switching from Backblaze Personal to Syncvault is mostly a matter of following the same three steps every OneTimeSuite app uses — buy once, deploy or install, bring your workflow over.

Step 1: Buy once on Whop

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.

Step 2: Set a passphrase and destination

Pick a vault passphrase and point Syncvault at your own S3 bucket or a local/network folder.

Step 3: Watch a folder and back up

Add the folders you care about, set a schedule, and hit Back up now — everything encrypts locally first.

What to expect during the switch

Syncvault covers the same core workflow as Backblaze Personal, so most people are productive within the first session — see the full feature list and FAQ on the product page before you commit.

Why make the switch at all

Backblaze Personal runs $9/mo, forever. Syncvault is $29, once. 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.

Try Syncvault — $29, once

Local backup agent that encrypts client-side and pushes to your own S3-compatible bucket or NAS.
