If you run OTOBO as your helpdesk, backups aren't optional — you're sitting on ticket history, customer data, attachments, and configuration that would take weeks to reconstruct if a server died tomorrow. The good news is that OTOBO ships with a backup mechanism out of the box. The bad news is that "ships with a backup mechanism" and "has a backup solution" are two very different things, and the gap between them is exactly where most OTOBO admins get caught out.
