Which Cloud Backup Solution Should You Use?

April 26, 2018

Backup is a very important part of your technology solution. Having a solid backup will allow you to recover from a ransomware infection. Backing up to external hard drives is good, but unplug the drive when the backup is done and make sure you have multiple backup copies. Cloud backup solutions are good too, but which one should you use? PCWorld tested some of the best online backup solutions. The quick-hit recommendations are:

  • Best overall online backup – iDrive
  • Best budget online backup – Backblaze
  • Most streamlined online backup – Carbonite

No matter which solution you choose, make sure you have at least three versions of your backup data. Perform periodic test restores as well to make sure you really can restore data after an event.
