Carbonite Safe Backup Pro Versus Other Backup Methods

• This article is for Windows and Mac

Time & Hassle

If you have to think about backups, you probably will not ever get around to doing them. Most computer users do not know where all of their important files are stored on their computer and would therefore otherwise miss critical information if they were selecting specific items to be backed up. With Carbonite, you download our software and leave the rest up to us.

Cost

Depending on how a business backs up their important data, they can be spending a lot of money to keep computer data backed up and stored in an off-site location. Traditional online backup services cost at least $1000 per year and offer only limited capacity. Carbonite offers backup for an unlimited number of computers with expandable storage capacities for just a few dollars per month.

Peace of Mind

Are all of the files you care about protected from theft, fire, flood, and other natural disasters? With Carbonite, you know for sure that data you have lost can be recovered. Since Carbonite is always on, continually detecting new data and changes to existing files on your computer, you never have to worry.

Security

With Carbonite, nothing leaves your computer unless it is encrypted. When you register, you create a user ID and password and only you will be able to unlock the encrypted files stored by Carbonite. You can also rest assured that Carbonite will not share any information about you or your data with advertisers or other third parties.
