Odoo Backup & Restore Setup
Odoo backups that actually restore: database and file backups set up properly, tested with a real restore check, and documented so recovery is a procedure, not a panic.
The problem
Most Odoo servers have 'backups' — until the day a restore is needed and the backup turns out to be empty, stale, or never actually tested.
Who it's for
Any company running self-hosted Odoo whose backups have never been restore-tested — which is more companies than anyone admits.
The outcome
Working, scheduled backups of database and files, at least one verified restore, and a documented recovery path your team can follow under stress.
What STYD delivers
STYD reviews the current backup state, sets up scheduled database and file backups with sensible retention, performs a verified restore test, and documents the recovery steps.

FAQ
Preferably away from the server itself — a second location is part of the design, agreed with you.
Because one is actually performed as part of the setup — a backup that has never been restored is a hope, not a backup.
Retention is agreed to fit your storage and risk appetite — commonly a mix of recent daily copies and longer-term ones.
This covers backups and a verified restore. A full disaster-recovery plan — alternate hosting, recovery time targets — is a separate, scoped exercise.
