In the past I have been able to run constant backups incrementally at 15 minute intervals without much slow down of my systems. This software, even though it does fantastic things, is an absolute resource hog. My major issues come down to resource usage and customer support. Notifications are also a great feature to notify you if there was a problem during a backup. The fact that once you you install the program and sign in, the interface is very straight forward allowing you to select what on your computer you want to back up, all the way down to the entire contents of your C: drive is great and makes the product easy to use. I have looked through so many providers for online backups and I don't believe anyone comes close to what is offered by this software. The fact that the cost vs amount of storage you receive is incredible with Crash Plan. But my experience was likely unusual.īased on other user reports of Crashplan, the upload and download speeds are quite good.Ĭommentaires: Unlimited backup storage of my computer system with revision history Backing up 200gb of data took nearly half a year. I assume this was not the fault of Crashplan, but the result of serious Internet throttling by the internet provider or by state security apparatus in China where all connections to the outside world are severely curtailed. When I used Crashplan for backup in Beijing, China, the upload speeds were horrendously slow. Unfortunate for the average household computer user. The Crashplan client is cross-platform and will run on Linux and MacĬode42 appears to have removed their plan for standard household users and now only has plans for small and large businesses. The Crashplan client automatically backs up to ensure that customers are using the very latest client and are not in danger of security leaks. It runs continuously in the background to ensure that the files selected are backed up. I stopped using it because the internet in China was simply too restricted and curtailed to make it useful.

Once my data was uploaded (it took nearly a year), I was assured that my PhD research was safe. Commentaires: Outstanding performance over the 3 year period that I used it.
