Hi Currently we are using both the cpanel backup to make daily backups, but also we use jetbackup to make daily backups. The cpanel backups are located at /backup, where as jetbackup is remote storage. But we are kinda running out of diskspace, primarily because of the local backup. So, what are your ideas on backup especially with jetbackup. So far i never had any problems restoring user accounts with jetbackup, so im thinking to disable the local backup. But what do you do ? Have you ever experinced any problems with jetbackup ? I could add some more diskspace, but that would require that i bought a new server, since its already maxed out.

  Hey there! JetBackup has been a solid tool for many years. There's no reason that you couldn't totally replace your server's backups with JetBackup, disabling the cPanel backups completely.

  The only caveat I'd throw in is "how remote is remote"? The variable that you are throwing in is WAN connectivity. If you have a good/reliable connection to the remote backup, things should be fine. If it's a slower connection, then a restore is going to be slower.
