Will my price change?
No. Your current price will remain the same after the transition to Xcitium Backup.

Once your CodeGuard service expires, your previous CodeGuard backup files may no longer be accessible. We strongly recommend downloading any important backups before your renewal is completed.
Will my current CodeGuard settings be copied across to Xcitium?
No. Your current CodeGuard settings and custom configurations will not be automatically copied to Xcitium Backup. After renewal, you will need to log in to your account manager and configure Xcitium Backup to continue backing up your website and database.

Where can I find my upcoming renewal date?

No. Once your CodeGuard service expires, it will be discontinued. The service cannot be extended after 14th of July, so we recommend downloading any important CodeGuard backups before that date and setting up Xcitium Backup after renewal.
What if I don’t download my backups before renewal?
