Use website maintenance dashboard for Joomla upgrades/backups
Today we are proud to announce the launch of Watchful, a backup, update and monitoring service for Joomla websites.
Watchful gives you the power to remotely update all of your Joomla websites in one convenient location, saving you time and ensuring that you implement critical maintenance tasks consistently and thoroughly.
In addition to updating Joomla and Joomla add-ons, Watchful comes packed with useful features. Perhaps the most important feature among them is the remote backup, as you should back up all web sites before applying any upgrade. You can find this in the website maintenance dashboard.
Watchful also adds comprehensive activity logging to all of your Joomla web sites. This allows Watchful to notify you when important files are modified or when web services such as PHP are changed. Since these features of your site rarely change, any notification may indicate unauthorized activity on your web site.
We hope that Watchful’s website maintenance dashboard will grow into a useful tool for web site builders everywhere.

Can I update database tables ?
Like I have mightsites and need to update the tables between 9 aliases on one website there is only 5 database tables but this could be useful to me? Because I would have to do it manually.
Thanks

Hi Matthew. We don’t have any tools for performing custom updates to database tables. However, we do have a remote installer feature. If you have a custom piece of code that will perform the update you can apply it to all your sites at the same time. https://faqs.watchful.net/tools/using-the-remote-install-feature-of-watchful
