However I am looking for tools to allow me restore BAK file from FTP server to SQL 2008 name instance directly (No file copy).
Does anyone has similar experience? Thanks ahead.

The message means that remote backup feature is in permanent Beta because we can not guarantee your restore 100%. You should try the restore for yourself.
You can read more about it at http://www.sqlbackupandftp.com/remote/

So simple to use and worked immediately.

The zipped backups are so much more compact too.

Only problem was hooking up to my mail account, but will probably just get a google account especially for this.

I am one of the SQLBackupAndFTP creators. Pinal, thank you for a great review and guys, thank you for warm comments.
In about a month we plan to add “Remote Backup” functionality to the program. It is not a fix, but a new feature. Local backups are easy with BACKUP DATABASE, but remote mean we need to script it. Scripting is simple with SMO, but then we’d need to add 14MB libraries to our current 0.5MB product. So we write it from scratch instead – but that’s not an easy task.
After that we’ll add Differential and maybe Transaction Log options for advanced users.
In summer 2009 we plan to launch a new super easy no-configuration (just connection string) required subscription-based program that will upload backups to our web site and users will be able to access their files, logs and set backup options from our site.
If you have questions, post them here or on our site: http://www.sqlbackupandftp.com/contact/
Thank you again.

I think the biggest limitation is that it can not connect to other server in net but as you say it will be fixed in April 2009, what else that version have.

Very easy to understand.

Tool size is so small that it can hardly have any spyware … ha ha… that has to stay spyware free :)

http://sqlbackupandftp.com/features/

It’s a nice tool for start (I have came across it, but don’t need to use it), I have built something with SQL backup jobs + SyncBack copy + SyncBack FTP download + SQL restore jobs (use Red Gate Backup too). It was F-U-N

RedGate SQL Backup is a good tool, and they have free FTPcopy utility as well

This is a neat tool, Currently we use backup software from Redgate, it is good as well provided compressed backups with encryption.
