About remote-backups.com
We believe data protection shouldn't be complicated or expensive. That's why we built a simple, reliable backup service on our own hardware - giving you control over your data without the complexity of managing infrastructure.
Our Story
remote-backups.com started as a simple idea: provide reliable, affordable backup storage without the complexity and vendor lock-in of traditional cloud providers. We noticed that most backup solutions either require expensive proprietary software or force you into complex pricing models with hidden costs.
Instead of building another generic cloud service, we took a different approach. We deploy our own enterprise-grade hardware in certified datacenters, giving us full control over performance, security, and costs. This lets us offer transparent pricing and reliable service without depending on third-party infrastructure.
Our focus is simple: provide rock-solid SSH-based storage that works with the backup tools you already know and trust. Whether you're running Proxmox Backup Server, Borg, rsync, SFTP, or custom scripts, remote-backups.com just works.

Built by Tech Enthusiasts
remote-backups.com is a project by Bennet Gallein, a systems engineer with a passion for reliable infrastructure and data protection.
Having seen too many backup solutions that are either overly complex or unreliable, the goal was simple: build something that just works. No marketing fluff, no vendor lock-in, just solid backup storage that integrates with the tools you already use.
The entire service is built and maintained with the philosophy that backup infrastructure should be boring - it should work reliably every time, without surprises.
Our Values
Reliability First
Your backups should be the most reliable part of your infrastructure. We design for uptime, not features.
Transparency
Simple pricing, open about limitations, honest about what we do and don't do. No hidden costs or surprise charges.
Privacy Respect
Your data is yours. We don't scan it, mine it, or sell access to it. German privacy laws, no exceptions.
