Pros

“One of the best parts of Backblaze is their pricing is based on actual usage, so you're not paying for space you're not using.”
TL

Tiffany L.

Owner

“One of the options they include is the choice to purchase a hard drive loaded with your data for a full restore, or you can use the file explorer to download individual files through your browser.”
NW

Niko W.

CEO

“The backup software automatically backs up any of the hard drives or files you request. If your computer goes offline for a particular length of time, you will receive an email reminder that the utility cannot connect to your source.”

CEO

Pros

“Once configured, it has delivered consistent backups without issues, and the combination of scheduling, versioning and notifications makes it feel like excellent value for the price.”
JE

Jamie E.

Analyst

“As well as using iDrive for remote access of my data when I'm on another device on the go, I have fully retrieved my data when a device failed (PC and laptop), without the need to get a tech to pull the data out for me.”
KC

Kimberly C.

Certified Online Business Manager

“Overall, it has some lacks in the storage like syncing, fast access. But, at the same time the pricing is good”
MA

Cons

“It does not back up exe files which are mainly software installation files but that is also where malware likes to hide.”

“I didn't like how it missed some files and was slow for no apparent reason, especially on a fast network.”

Benjamin B.

“It doesn't have a great notification system. ”
IB

Prevent Manager

Cons

“My home internet service maxes out at 10mpbs upload speeds, which was making my initial backup of over 300gb of files take a long time.”
RB

Robert B.

Host, Producer

“My upload speed to iDrive cloud backup is unusually slow, causing significant delays in backing up my files.”
HL

Haixun L.

Development Expert

“Barely acceptable upload speed of small files and terrible upload speed of files over few gigabytes.”
