PaGoDump - PostgreSQL

PaGoDump - PostgreSQL allows you to create comprehensive backups for PostgreSQL databases in a short time and with little effort. The tool is GUI-based and allows you to configure the backup preferences in differentiated tabs. It enables you to extract the information from the database into an SQL file.

PaGoDump - PostgreSQL allows you to generate backups for PostgreSQL databases on demand, based on the options you set. You may save the settings as a specific PaGoDump profile and load it every time you wish to create a backup so that you do not need to set all the details again.

The program features a tabbed interface, in which each page is a step in the configuration process. Thus, the Connection tab is where you can specify the name of the PostgreSQL host, port, login credentials and database. You may set the output format to PLAIN, TAR, COMPRESS or DIRECTORY in the Options tab.

PaGoDump - PostgreSQL allows you to customize the backup profile, by specifying the level of compression, encoding method and the corresponding role of the output file. The database information can be filtered, for example you can include only the data or only schemas in the backup.

You may leave the owner information or the tablespace, as well as create/drop database simultaneously. Moreover, you may choose to disable triggers, use INSERT or SET SESSION AUTHORIZATION Commands. The Selection tab is where you can filter the tables and the Log page displays.

PaGoDump - PostgreSQL does not allow you to schedule backups for PostgreSQL databases, only to create them on demand. However, the process is quick and you can apply the same profiles again, in which case the task can be initiated with two mouse clicks. Moreover, notification boxes are prompted to inform you of the success of the process or error occurrences.
