How to choose the correct storage size for your Subscription plan

FluentPro Backup offers subscription plans based on the amount of storage space required. If you're unsure how much storage you need or want to estimate your data size, follow this guide to choose the right plan.

When you sign up for FluentPro Backup for the first time and add an environment for data backup, you automatically receive a free trial subscription.

The trial lasts 14 days and includes:

  • 250GB of storage for most environments.
  • 100GB of storage for Dataverse environments.

This trial allows you to estimate your storage needs without any commitment. For this, perform the following: 

  • Add the environment you want to back up (e.g., Project for the Web, Dataverse, or Planner). 
  • Select the data you plan to back up from the environment.
  • Start the backup process.

These three steps are usually done once you sign up for FluentPro Backup using the onboarding wizard.

Once completed, FluentPro Backup will calculate and display the storage used.

You will find the storage used for your backup on the Home page of your FluentPro Backup account -> Stored Data -> Actual. This number shows how much storage your backup occupies.

Select a subscription plan that matches or exceeds your actual storage usage to ensure all data remains protected.

For example, during the trial, if you back up your environment and see that ~10GB of storage was used, you will need a subscription plan offering at least 120GB (or more to accommodate future growth as all further backup actions will multiply this number).

By using the trial period to evaluate your storage needs, you can confidently select the most suitable FluentPro Backup subscription plan for your organization.
