Idrive vs backblaze vs carbonite12/9/2023 ![]() ![]() Still, in regards to backup, Arq 7 does an excellent job, and with its support for third-party services it’s one of the most versatile backup services we’ve ever tested. There are no additional features such as partition or drive-image backups, cloning, sync, or recovery via boot media. Our only minor quibble with the service is that it’s a bit of a one-trick pony-it only does backup. The interface is clean and easy-to-use, which is a huge boon considering how intimidating backing up can be for new users. Arq 7 also supports multiple jobs that you can tailor to each service such as backing up vital documents to free cloud storage, or larger files to a premium service you use as well. Its support for myriad third-party online backup services is second to none. With all of these different storage options the wires can get crossed and it can become increasingly difficult to ensure all of your data is backed up to the correct service. You likely also use one or more of these services to store different buckets of your data. Whether that be Dropbox, Google Drive, SharePoint, you name it. ![]() Over the years you’ve likely used more than one cloud or online storage services. IDrive has three Personal plans that cover one user with unlimited computers and devices: a 5TB plan for $59.62 the first year (or $119.25 for two years), and $79.50 each year after a 10TB plan for $74.62 the first year (or $149.25 for two years) and $99.50 each year after as well as a 20TB plan that’s $149.62 for the first year (299.25 for two years) and $199.50 after that. A Team plan can cover from 5 to 100 users, with an equivalent number of devices and terabytes of storage prices range from $74.62 to $1499.62 for the first year. The company also provides additional storage for syncing all your devices and PCs, allows sharing of files with anyone, and has the ability to back up to a local drive. It selects what it thinks you need to back up, then leaves the rest up to you. And though it’s not the cheapest, it’s still affordable and comes with backup clients for nearly every PC and device. The only real difference is that Carbonite doesnt back up everything by default. Just as when we originally reviewed all the major online backup services, iDrive remains the most comprehensive online backup service. ![]()
