Have an old computer that dies. Have an old computer that dies at the wrong moments. Just recently I overwhelmed the processor and crashed. All files involved were never touched due the Carbonite features. A big "Thank You" is forthcoming. Somehow you have built into Carbonite a feature to reconstruct what was working at the moment of a crash. Again, thanks!

Carbonite is effective and easy to use Carbonite is effective and easy to use. I do have an error that keeps showing up that I can't get to clear and their technical help hasn't gotten back to me. Fortunately, it isn't an error of not backing files up, but is actually not deleting old files it says it will! Still, it is annoying. Otherwise, I feel confident that all my pictures and important files are backed-up.

Overall pleased with the restoration process I was very pleased with how easy it was to be able to transfer my files over to my new computer, and it only took a day or two to complete the process. The only reason I am not giving this review five stars is that I found that files and photos that were saved inside multiple folders (a folder inside another folder) were not restored. Luckily my old computer was still active, or else those items would have been completely lost.

I had to restore my files due to hard-drive replacement I had to restore my files due to needing a replacement hard-drive on my Dell desktop. Carbonite's instructions on line were very helpful. There were a few minor things that I didn't know about until after the restore but they seemed to resolve themselves! Carbonite's invaluable help when you lose all your data is well worth their very fair cost.

Moving from an old laptop to a new one… Moving from an old laptop to a new one without needing to have an IT person do it for me!. Hardest part is figuring out which downloaded software I needed. Other events made this a little more difficult but still a positive experience.
