Point-in-time restore is the thing several of them have and we do not yet. If a 24-hour recovery point is not enough for you, pick one of them.

What we do not claim. Backups are daily images: recovery point up to 24 hours. No high availability: one VM per database, restarted automatically if it stops answering. No SLA. Other customers exist in the same datacenter, never on your VM.
