Is SQL Backup Manager safe to use?

Yes. Microsoft SQL Server provides standard interfaces to third-party software vendors to perform backups and restores. Most storage software uses this interface to perform database backups and restores (e.g. your tape storage software). SQL Backup Manager uses exactly the same interfaces. It does not use any unpublished features or APIs. We have thoroughly tested SQL Backup Manager, running over 1 million test backups across many databases, varying in size and complexity, and across over 30 platforms. We have also tested on multi-processor machines writing over multiple disks. In addition, SQL Backup Manager has undergone an independent security assessment to ensure that it is safe to use.
