Online Backup Review

These online backup service reviews are done with small businesses and homes in mind. 


In this online backup review page, we will try to cover the online backup services that are getting the most attention in media and consumer use, and try to give you an idea of how they perform in real use for small business and homes.

Compared to a review in a magazine like PC Magazine, we look more at the ease of using it over time, and a little less at the cool features that are included.  


There is no substitute for experience. We do not review a service unless we have direct experience using it on a daily basis for at least a few weeks. Professional reviewers rarely do this.

Each online backup review covers:

  • Security
    (We only review secure online backup services).
  • Use as online database backup
  • Use as online music backup
  • Use as online photo backup
  • Other matters relevant to that particular service

Mozy gives free online backup accounts to protect up to 2 GB of data. Windows or Mac. For most of us, that much data protection goes pretty far.  It's a great deal.  See it here.
