Why I prefer CrashPlan for online backups<article>
<section class="page">

As an enthusiastic
evangelist for backups, I recommend and use online backup services—not exclusively, but as a simple way of maintaining secondary backups offsite that would still be available even if my Mac and backup drives were stolen or damaged. Among the many providers of online backups, I personally prefer CrashPlan. In fact, I liked it enough to write a book about it several years ago.</p><p>
But increasingly, people have been asking me why I use
CrashPlan—not in an “Oh, just wondering” way but in a “Seriously? You? Still?” way, as if it should be obvious to anyone that there are better choices out there. So I’d like to tell you why, and in the process offer comparisons to a few competing services:
Backblaze,
Carbonite,
DollyDrive, and
MozyHome.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2915637/why-i-prefer-crashplan-for-online-backups.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
