As you might expect, CrashPlan is a hard drive backup program.With reputable websites like TechRadar calling the likes of Microsoft 365 a 'Backup Solution', even though Microsoft specifically states in their T&Cs that they don't back up your data - It's no wonder that people are getting their knickers in a twist when it comes to backing up their data. But it aims to fix two problems that most other programs miss: security and ease of use. Security: The problem with online backup solutions such as Carbonite, Mozy, or Backblaze isn’t just their price they give hackers an easy way to get lots of our data by hacking into the servers where we store our backups.
With CrashPlan for Mac, your files will be encrypted before being sent over the internet. No 3rd party has access to these keys (except you), so if anything goes wrong at CrashPlan’s end all your data will still remain safe and sound on your computer and not in some hackers’ hands.Įase of Use: Online backup solutions require you to remember to do something periodically – usually once a week. CrashPlan doesn’t nag or use your bandwidth for backups while you’re asleep or at work, so there’s no need for you to remember anything. Instead, it is always running in the background, protecting all of your data as you work.ĬrashPlan is not the only online backup service in existence and offers two key features to set itself apart from the rest: Unlimited storage for $6 per month, and a dedicated desktop client. The desktop client means you don’t have to deal with CrashPlan’s web interface or navigate its remote control software on your computer – everything can be done through a single friendlier interface.
The process is simple: Install the CrashPlan app onto your Mac (or multiple computers), let it scan for new files, and then add them to backups right away, or at any time you choose. It will also quietly keep an eye on your data so it can back up your most recent changes just before they’re overwritten by new ones. #Carbonite vs backblaze for mac install.
