I quite like Crashplan:
- very reasonably priced: I pay around £10 pcm for unltd storage for my whole family
- zero-knowledge encryption: I have the encryption keys, and everything is encrypted on my machine before its sent up
- relatively low bandwidth: only ships changed files (pretty standard tbh)
It's saved my bacon a few times, e.g. I've used it to rescue my sister's dissertation when she wiped her laptop thinking it was in Dropbox when it wasn't. I was amazed by how easy it was for me to rescue the file from the archive.
- 2bluesc 9y agoI used crash plan on Linux for years, but stopped because their Java client is a train wreck. It would consume gigabytes of RAM and every year or so it'd meltdown when trying to install an update without using the system package manager.
- tedmiston 9y agoThis is the same reason I left Crashplan. If they could get the Java client under control it would be a worthy contender, probably even the best consumer-friendly option.
