HubSpot Backup Solution: CRM Data Loss Protection for Enterprises

For enterprises currently using the HubSpot CRM, the platform serves as a central repository for valuable business data, including contacts, companies, deals, and interactions. This is information collected over years, by multiple teams, that drives marketing, sales, conversions, and revenue. Given the criticality of this data, it becomes imperative that there are systems in place to secure this data. 

While the HubSpot platform is designed with industry-standard digital security best practices, enterprises need to have effective internal contingency plans to safeguard their critical information. This is where a specialized HubSpot backup solution comes in, ensuring robust data protection, seamless disaster recovery, and compliance with data regulations.

What is it?

As the name suggests, the HubSpot data backup app takes a backup of your CRM data at regular intervals and stores it on a secured server. In case of any data loss or security incident in HubSpot, you can:

• Restore all HubSpot data in the CRM, from the last backup taken
• Or download all HubSpot data as collected in the last backup

Here's a look at which HubSpot objects the app can backup:

How does it work?

The HubSpot data backup app can be set up with a few simple steps:

• Authorize your HubSpot portal to connect with the backup app
• Select a backup frequency - daily, weekly, or monthly

When it comes to restoring your HubSpot data, the backup application:

• Restores all objects, as they existed on the date of the backup
• All object properties will be updated to as they existed on the date of the backup
• Any objects, for example a few contacts, deleted after the backup was taken, will be recreated in HubSpot once you restore the backup
• Any objects, for example a few deals, added in HubSpot after the backup was taken, will remain unaffected once you restore the backup

Benefits of regular HubSpot backup

Factors such as human error, system failures, cyber threats, or malicious activities can lead to data loss or corruption. And while not common, incidents like these have occurred with the HubSpot platform.
