Restore Time Expectations (Typical Scenarios)
-
Shared Hosting

Small sites: target ~1 hour

Large sites: target ~2 hours

In many cases, restores complete in minutes (size dependent).

VPS

Full VM restores are typically quick, but can vary by disk size and image handling.

-
ERP
-
Depends on database size and customer rush hours (restore timing may be scheduled).

What affects restore time:

Backup size and number of files
-
Database size and tables count

What we need from you to move fast:

Correct restore date (and time for ERP)
