The whole point is “off-site backup”. If you have a fire or your stuff is stolen then the flash drive goes with it. I also have very important stuff that I have got over the years so the more back-ups the better. I use Time Machine, but I also use Mozy as something to fall back on if Time Machine fails.
This review is a joke! How about actually comparing the products instead of the prices and support. I.E. the fact that Mozy will backup your external hardrives and carbonite will not etc. Not that I’m totally convinced Mozy is better but this review is a joke.
Where do I get a 500 gig flash drive?
Well, I´m on over 4 hours on the phone with them just trying to get the service.
They seem to be having major difficulty trying to resolve an error from my original contanct (who has Carbonite as a vender).
My frustation is epoc! What a pain, I´m about to throw it in on Carbonite.
I bet that son of a bitch is getting paid by Fagbonite to say its better, what a fucking whore
Started with Carbonite but due to a shortcomming switched to Mozy. Issue with Carbonite is that it can Only BU files on C dirve & my photos are on external USB drive.
The probelm with Mozy is it seems to stall for periods of 20min to several hrs where the status window doesn’t show any progress and Windows shows no network traffic. It just sits there.
Mozy says this is normal. I’m not convinced.
If Carbonite allowed drives other than”C:” I’d switch back.
Carbonite is no bargain. See my video response and pass it along.
scams?
does your flash drive have unlimited space, backup your files nightly automatically, and keep multiple versions of the same file as it changes? is it totally secure and offsite so that say someone steals your crap or your house goes up in flames that your precious flash drive doesnt also go down with it?
for 54 bucks a year only a retard would suggest something like “just get a flash drive”
This review is the fail.
There are significant flaws in Carbonite such as the inability to backup ALL files in a folder automatically. Instead it will just leave out files it thinks are not important. You can manually go to every file it leaves out and force it to backup, but who wants to manually manage every file on their computer? Sorry Carbonite but you, like this review, are the FAIL!
both are scams, just get a flash drive, no download times or any bs
