OT: Revisting Cloud Storage

  • May 30, 2017

I know this has been discussed over the years but what cloud storage are people using to back-up their website files?

I'm currently using 'Dropbox Plus' but I'm getting close to my 1TB limit (I have some large graphic design projects stored as well) and the next step up is 'Dropbox Business' which I don't need as that's for teams rather than individuals.

I need about 2TB I guess AND Mac compatible (I think most are anyway).

Any one care to share information about what cloud storage they currently use?

Cheers

Os

    We use two services, in case one fails.

    First level is CrashPlan https://www.crashplan.com/en-us/   It has real-time backup and also runs backup, I believe, every 15 minutes.  I think no storage limit; but, around $20 USD per month per device.

    Second level is Norton NORTON™ - Antivirus Software and Spyware Removal Since it's our Anti-Virus, we also signed up for the Cloud Storage.  It runs a backup when the device is idle or you can manually push it should you wish.  Can't remember the cost data.

    OK, helpful. I'll look into crashplan and see what it does - thanks.

    I use Backblaze which automatically backs up my computer each night.  Older file versions are stored for 30 days if I ever need to revert.  It's the best $5 per month for unlimited storage plan I've found.  And it's very reliable.   The Best Unlimited Online Backup and Cloud Storage Services

    Nightly backup on 2TB 'WD My Passport' kept locally and exchanged once per week with copy at the local bank.

    Wappler is the DMXzone-made Dreamweaver replacement and includes the best of their powerful extensions, as well as much more!

    Thanks Ben,

    That's an interesting idea, keeping a copy at the local bank.
