Backblaze: a secure cloud storage

Likeliness to Recommend

9 /10

What differentiates Backblaze Cloud Backup from other similar products?

Developers and programmers can build a cost-effective cloud provisioning option. The easiest and most effective way to please the backup needs of your entire staff: desktops, laptops, servers and nas. It is used for individual and mission-critical computer backups and an appreciation of the cloud. Backblaze is primarily used to intercede file servers and accounting computers.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Backblaze has an interface that automatically backs up everything from your processor, but allows you to easily except instruments you don't want or need to intercede applications, system files; it has an erect bandwidth limit and a monitor that allows you to localize how much data is backed up daily to avoid going over isp data limits or exploiting all your load bandwidth.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Backblaze does not offer a backup, where, if you have a large exuberance of files to back up, you can send Backblaze a hard drive with those files to initialize the backup, so you won't need to load all the files before running the backup.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Backblaze is good to be leveraged as a secondary provisioning server; we can use another storage server as the primary server. We could backup to the Backblaze storage server and use it for internal use in our shared storage our administration and integrate it with team support applications.

Pros

Helps Innovate
Reliable
Trustworthy
Inspires Innovation

Automated Backup Testing and Verification Goes beyond monitoring whether backup jobs completed by verifying the integrity of data restoration.

Application Awareness Application consistent backup and granular restore for application data from core applications such as MS SQL, Oracle, MS Exchange, MS SharePoint.
