Additional piece of mind for just a few dollars a month

What do you like best? Quiet background uploads, very affordable and easy to install. Look forward to deploying it to additional machines. What do you dislike? Constantly uploading, but I suppose that is a reality of persistent backup software. Scheduling options would be nice. Would be nice to see some weekly reports on bandwidth usage. Recommendations to others considering the product Keep your existing onsite and cloud solution, tack this on for additional peace of mind! What business ...

Simple Cloud Backup

What do you like best? I like that BackBlaze is a click and install type of backup service for PCs. Their tech support is strong and their software does not have any noticeable bugs. I also appreciate that their unlimited backup is truly unlimited. Also to note, if you add on subscriptions they will pro-rate and keep all of your subscriptions due on the same date so you do not have staggering subscriptions. I am very amiable to having one payment. What do you dislike? My only complaint is ...

BackBlaze has been a great platform for retrieving documents that may be lost during troubleshooting

What do you like best? It's a one time set up and then it takes care of itself. I don't have to work with BackBlaze each day because it just is automatically backing up new information as its created. What do you dislike? I honestly do not have any negative feedback from BackBlaze. Recommendations to others considering the product I highly recommend some sort of backup system for your computer and BackBlaze has been great for our team. I had an incident where my computer glitched and I ...

Effortless, life-saving backup for a fantastic price

What do you like best? The fact that there is no storage limit means I need not worry about losing any files. It can automatically back up all files (including system files, allowing me to restore my entire system from it. The software can intelligently adapt to your bandwidth usage, meaning that it doesn't slow down your internet speeds when using your computer. The website for accessing your files is clear and well designed, allowing you to view all versions of your backup (very useful ...

Great overall product.

What do you like best? This is an extremely affordable option for backing up your computers. We have this deployed using domain license. It has been extremely helpful in keeping our workstations backed up without the end user noticing any drop in system performance What do you dislike? The management for our domain license could be better. I wish we could adjust schedules for all machines from one location. They do provide usage info, but it's via email instead of a management console. ...

The best whole-computer backup bar none

What do you like best? Set it and forget it: this is how you do consumer backup. For $5/month, I have over 3TB backed up of large media files (including image sequences, 300GB ProRes exports, etc.. BackBlaze gets to work uploading as soon as possible, and can use my entire upstream connection to make sure it's uploaded as fast as possible. What do you dislike? It would be great if I could backup network shares, but it's not a huge deal. Sometimes I also think that it would be nice to ...

Fastest Email Support I've Ever Received

I've been using BackBlaze for a few years, but never had occasion to contact them until recently. Within minutes after submitting my question, I got a very detailed, obviously personal (not boilerplate response from Zack.I'm more accustomed to support queries being answered in hours or days. The speed with which BackBlaze responded to my question amazed me. By the way, the backup service itself is also excellent. That's why I've been using it for years. It just works, very quietly, and with ...

Very affordable backup service

I've used Backblaze for a bit more than a year now, and I've had no problems with their service. Several times, I've needed to resort to the backups to retrieve earlier versions of a file, and it's been a great relief to discover that such retrieval is quick and easy. When one of my computers died, I thought that migrating the Backblaze service to its replacement would be tedious and difficult. I was wrong. It was quick and easy!

Elendig hastighed

Backblaze har kun amerikanske servere. På min 30/30 forbindelse er hastigheden ca. 0.93 Mbit.Funktionaliteten er sikkert meget god, men med den hastighed er der langt op til uendelig.

Fremragende backupservice

Superstabil og nem backup direkte fra sin computer uden at skulle tage backup på eksterne harddiske eller optiske medier.
