Best Practice for Backing Up
My project management team joined Smartsheet about 6 months ago and have created quite the plethora of sheets. All of them are in use as we are managing a very large project, so I do not want to delete any (and as we have so many paid users, we are far from our sheet limit) and they are all dynamic/active sheets.
However, we are very much relying on Smartsheet for tracking progress and documents (we do not nessesarily keep track on other platforms or drives).
My question is, what is the best practice with this platform for backing up? Do people back up a workspace on a regular basis "just in case" something were to go wrong on the backend of Smartshee? It would be quite the problem for us if the system were to crash.
Thanks!

Hello,
For me, I try and do weekly backups but then I also do a special backup if I've made some kind of massive change. Either a lot of data changed, or maybe adding new sheets to a workspace.
Basically for me, if I don't want to have to re-enter something massive, I go ahead and backup.
Take care,
Steve
