Backing up your data ensures you can recover important business information in case of accidental deletion, device failure, or data corruption.

You can store backups locally on your computer or securely in the cloud with TallyDrive, based on your preference.

Setting up an automatic backup is straightforward. In TallyPrime, you can navigate to the backup menu and schedule backups to run daily, weekly, or monthly at a time that works best for you. The system only needs to be on for the backup to run automatically, even if TallyPrime itself is closed. You can choose to save the backup to a local drive or securely to TallyDrive in the cloud.

Your data's security is our top priority. When you back up your Tally Prime data to TallyDrive, it is stored in a secure cloud environment with access restricted to authorized users via their Tally.NET ID. For an added layer of protection, you can encrypt each backup with a unique password, ensuring that only you and those you trust can access your sensitive financial information.

Restoring your data is a simple and flexible process. TallyPrime allows you to restore your company data to the most recent backup or choose from any previous version stored. This is useful for recovering from accidental data deletion, correcting errors, or reviewing historical records. Simply access the restore function, select the company and the specific backup version you wish to restore, and TallyPrime will handle the rest.
