Top Backup Shopify Apps Ranked by Position
BackupMaster Backups ranks #1 for backup with 6.4% share — the leader position in a fragmented field where many apps are within striking distance, -8.2pp ahead of Filey ‑ Files Backup & Export (14.6%). TinyBackup ‑ Backups & restore sits at #3 with 6.0% share, rounding out the top tier.

Rewind Backups is the standout mover this month, climbing 2 positions — a momentum signal worth tracking.

With this many viable apps, pricing model and integration depth differentiate backup options more than rank does.
