How reliable is backblaze?

The Bottom Line. Backblaze is a streamlined and secure online backup service. It's good for novices, but it may frustrate users who want more control over backups.

Is backblaze really unlimited?

2. Truly unlimited backup. Whether you have just 1 Megabyte or tons of Terrabytes of files, Backblaze has no issue backing it all up for you. Considering that most backup services come with a space limit, this is an invaluable feature for the price you are getting (more on that later).

Latency in the connection from your computer to our servers. This can cause the overall speed to be reduced. Latency can be caused by general internet connection, and geographic/network distance.

How does backblaze make money?

Hardware: 23% of Revenue

Backblaze stores data on hard drives. Those hard drives are “wrapped” with servers so they can connect to the public and store data. We've discussed our approach to how this works with our Vaults and Storage Pods. Our infrastructure is purpose-built for data storage.

What is the best cloud backup?

With unlimited online storage for one computer for $60 a year, Backblaze is the most affordable backup service we tested. It's easy to use on both Windows and Mac. With the software installed and the default settings, uploads start immediately, and they include the most commonly used folders that need backing up.

Is CrashPlan really unlimited?

For most people, yes it is unlimited in the sense they will not abuse it. You have one of the largest archives in the history of CrashPlan. It is so large, we cannot guarantee the performance of our service.

What happened CrashPlan?

CrashPlan, the cloud-based backup service developed by Code42, recently announced that it will no longer support Home subscriptions and will instead move its focus to small business and enterprise. This was our favorite backup service for home users to get secure, automatic, and continuous backup to the cloud.

Is CrashPlan free?

This is a reminder that after October 22, 2018, the free version of CrashPlan for Home will no longer work. This means that any data that you previously backed up using the free version will be inaccessible and you will not be able to back up or restore files, even to local folders or friends' computers.
