Crashplan was backing us up to the cloud for many years. We had historical backups, handy that I can do back in time to different revisions of documents. Crashplan then MOVED us to a new server and trashed ALL historical backups, I can no longer go back far. I complained, they ignored. It then operated 40-50 times slower, on a 1Gbit line is uses less than 1% bandwidth.

Crashplan used to be a better service before Code42 bought it and made changes. It used to just work in the back-ground more or less hassle free. Now it is another tech service that you need to manage. I would no longer recommend Crashplan and am moving to another service.

I can easily backup all my photographs and Photoshop files on my external drive and have them always backed up in the cloud without much thought.

Not reliable or cost effective.

I have used for over 5 years without any issues. It updates as needed and provides backup for all my work. A MUST HAVE feature they offer that few others have is their default option to keep 100% of your data even after you delete it off your hard drive. Most remove deleted files after only 30 days. That means if you make a mistake and remove a needed file you are out of luck. If you change out HDD due to space then all gets removed. No a good solution for total backup. This is why I have stayed with Crashplan.
