    Carbonite Safe

    Score8.9 out of 10
    N/ACarbonite Safe is a personal cloud backup solution offered on pricing tiers to backup a single computer to multiple computers, to an insfrastructure consisting of endpoints and servers. Users of the former Mozy product (an online data backup service which allows users to back up their hard drive and, in the event of a computer catastrophe, perform a full restore of all files) are migrated to Carbonite Safe. Mozy was acquired by Carbonite from Dell in March 2018.

    Chose Carbonite Safe
    We use Mozy in this client setting because he was more familiar with the user interface and workflow than the other products.

    Chose Carbonite Safe
    Mozy Pro is a great product for entry level and small businesses. It provides simple, effective backups with little to no technical expertise being required by the end users to benefit from it. I found that Code42's CrashPlan, was better when our storage needs increased …

    Chose Carbonite Safe
    Mozy provides more enterprise features such as AD integration, but CrashPlan has better plans when backing up large amounts of data. Additionally when restoring data, CrashPlan displays file versions as a drill down on each file making it easy to find a specific version you are …

    While Mozy Pro gets the job done, Cloudberry is better for business. Cloudberry provides backing up to Amazon Web Services, however, requires a higher level tech set it up. CrashPlan has also been great and is unlimited.

    Chose CrashPlan
    Mostly the price is what drew me to CrashPlan -others I have used are expensive per GB storage and difficult to manage. Carbonite was costing $1000.00 a year for 1 server with 2 TB of data. CrashPlan helps keep down the cost and the client spends much less time paying me to …

    Chose CrashPlan
    We compared CrashPlan with other choices and they were either too expensive or didn't have the backup capacity we required at the time. For lack of a better solution, we were very close to signing with Mozy, and this was years ago when CrashPlan was still a new player in the …

    Crashplan is easier and less expensive than the competition.

    CrashPlan seems like it is much more geared towards enterprises and organizations than either Carbonite or Mozy. There are many more features that enterprises can use.

    Chose CrashPlan
    We tried out both Mozy and Carbonite before choosing Crashplan - it was the simplicity and power of the backup application that led us to pick Crashplan. Backups and restores just made sense and the application was organized in a way that was easy to navigate and understand. …

    Chose CrashPlan
    We tried (actually purchased) one of these competitors first and had a terrible restore experience on a laptop used by one of our VPS. We tried CrashPlan and once we did, we bought it immediately.

    Chose CrashPlan
    I switched to CrashPlan from Mozy roughly two years ago to get away from an arduous provisioning process and a per-GB pricing model. We were looking for something that was reliable and something that we could price consistently so that our customers wouldn't be surprised by a …
