## Reviews

### "Very flexible backup service that allows you to backup external hard drives w/ strong encryption" — 5.0/5

> **Tab** | *22 June 2018* | Publishing | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Strong encryption helps keep our files safe. Unlike many backup services, Crashplan for Small Business allows you to backup files on any number of external hard drives for no additional fees. Also, you aren't required to move the files/folders you want to backup into a proprietary backup folder...this means you do not have to alter the structure of your file system to have an effective and full backup.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;Power Tip: divide your backup into multiple backup sets for increased efficiency and peace of mind.
> 
> **Cons**: I wish you could more easily view the backup log so you could reassure yourself that your most important files are 100% backed up to the latest version. UX is usable but a bit awkward...it can take several somewhat convoluted click-throughs to find the setting you need to alter.
> 
> Peace of mind knowing our files are safe.

### "Good Program" — 5.0/5

> **Heather** | *28 September 2019* | Photography | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: This program really does as it says, backups all that you have on your computer incase of lost data, or major computer crash loss. Because it's web based, it's all available and at the tip of your fingers if ever you need retrieve lost data.
> 
> **Cons**: My biggest issue with that program was that it took up so much bandwidth that there was very little left for other things in my home, such as watching youtube, or Hulu, or Netflix. &#10;&#10;It ate up a lot of my allotted bandwidth for the month, and I had a lot of difficulty using it because of that.
> 
> Overall, the potential for the program, and the idea seems great. But unless you have a huge bandwidth or pay for extra it's difficult to use for a some business owner like myself. &#10;&#10;I flet secure in that my life were kept safe, in an online, web based program, however I could never use it to it's full potential because it took literally days for my to back up just one of my external hard drives full of full resolution .CR2 files.

### "Crashplan deleting my data as there's no way to change my plan" — 1.0/5

> **Peter** | *4 November 2024* | Mechanical or Industrial Engineering | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I've used it for years and it was fine: but now...
> 
> **Cons**: They asked me to update my payment method. I decided that the best option  was to change my plan. You can't do that online, so I raised a ticket and sent multiple emails asking to update my plan. Nothing has happened other than a stream of emails saying my account will be deleted unless I update my payment method... Trapped by a simple admin problem that looks as tho I will lose all my data...
> 
> Technically good, administratively a disaster.

### "YOU SAVE MY SKIN\!" — 5.0/5

> **Jessica** | *22 March 2019* | Graphic Design | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: MY COMPUTER CRASHES ALL IS LOST\! Or wait no\! I have CRASHPLAN\!\!\! As an author and a graphic designer, there is NOTHING as important as having all of your precious files safely tucked away securely. CrashPlan is like a comfort blanket for me and my files.
> 
> **Cons**: Just make sure you're connected and syncing properly\! But seriously there is NO downside to having all of your files backed up safe and secure
> 
> I had a computer failure, had to wipe it clean but CrashPlan was there with all of my precious files safely tucked away to put on when I got a new computer.

### "I keep in my cloud, I'm more secure" — 5.0/5

> **Aníbal** | *25 August 2018* | Alternative Dispute Resolution | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I feel safe with this software because there I keep all the information of my pc, they have the security that my files need all the data stored in Crashplan have internal backup that guarantee that in the event of a company failure they can always be recovered again .
> 
> **Cons**: This service is the best, it is for all types of users, both desktop operating systems and smartphones
> 
> I have solved my problem of not having to saturate my PC anymore, I keep everything in the cloud since the old file was in the university until I used software that I no longer use
