Backblaze

Overview

Losing business data to a hard drive crash, ransomware, or accidental deletion can cost far more than any backup service. Backblaze gives small businesses automatic, continuous cloud backup for every Mac and PC at a flat $99 per computer per year. It backs up all user-generated data from computers and connected external drives with no limits on file size or file type. The software runs natively on Mac and Windows without requiring Java or extra middleware. If you ever need to recover files, you can restore through a web browser, use a dedicated restore app, or request a free encrypted USB drive shipped to your door. Backblaze supports two-factor authentication and 2048-bit encryption to protect your data. Over 500,000 customers across 175 countries use it, including Texas A&M University, which completed setup in one day at zero restore cost.
