Carbonite Wins Hands-Down
BestOnlineStorage.com, a website that features reviews and articles on computer backup methods has named Carbonite Editor’s Choice for the Best Online Backup and Storage Solution. Here is an extract from the press reslease:
Although not the first provider to offer online backup services, Carbonite does hold the distinct advantage of being the first to offer unlimited storage for a flat fee. Prior to Carbonite’s entry into the online backup industry in 2006, backup service providers were charging by the gigabyte. Carbonite’s introduction of unlimited backup space not only made the service more affordable but also encouraged more computer users to adopt better data loss prevention methods.
To date, Carbonite has backed up over 25 billion files, retrieved more than 2 billion files for small businesses and home users, and is now available in different language versions including French, German, Dutch, Portuguese, Spanish, and Japanese. Carbonite Backup has also released in March 2009 its MAC version for OS 10.4 or 10.5.
“It’s not surprising that Carbonite has served this many customers and grown so fast in such a short span of time,” said Van Slooten. “The service is reliable, easy to use, and automatically backs up your computer for less than $5 a month. That is a small price to pay for the peace of mind you get from knowing your files are completely safe,” he added.
