GBThis company seems dedicated to … This company seems dedicated to producing a quality product. I have been having a pre-sale issue with backing up to Wasabi. I am hopeful that their support team will identify/fix the issue. The backup product has all of the necessary features to fully enable cloud backup.

NLUsing cloudberry backup for a while I'm using cloudberry backup at home for a while now. It's pretty simple to use, and works flawsless with different cloud storage providers as wel local storage. I have my setup at home connected with Backblaze now. You can also set up to be notified when an backup appears to fail.

AUExcellent Crashplan Alternative I am currently on the 15-day trial with Cloudberry desktop backup for Windows and have been looking for a crashplan replacement with particular reference to compression, security (ransomware protection and transfer encryption protection built in) and having a choice of where to backup my data - cloud (Wasabi), NAS or USB. Cloudberry offers me more functionality than crashplan and at a very competitive price. I am using this for my small business and personal use to backup files automatically. The GUI is intuitive and user-friendly. The setup was quick and understandable. Pros: Choice of backup destinations. Security (ransomware protection and transfer encryption) Easy to set up and adjustment of configuration. User friendly GUI with great navigation. Competitive pricing and great support. Cons Mobile phone App to view and download your backup files. Emailed backup report to be more detailed.

GBSolid option with many backend storage options, probably best for small to medium shops. I replaced a previous solution that is dropping support for peer to peer backup. With peer to peer we can pre-seed a remote peer in the same city inexpensively as well as perform a fast recovery if needed. For more tactical backups we use peer to peer, and for more strategic backup we use one of the large cloud providers. Besides many backend storage options, there other many other good features like client side encryption, block level backup, and compression. The per client price is reasonable and it is well suited for SOHO and smaller shops. There is a centrally managed solution that relies on connecting to a cloudberry server. This should provide some upward scalability, but I have not explored this. Setup was straight forward providing your back end storage is already established. If you don't have a storage provider already, this of course will add time as that will have to also be setup before Cloudberry can be used. The interface could use some updating. The product functionality is beyond the scope of understanding for most people without an IT background, yet the interface feels like it's targeted for end users, who typically are looking for an all-in-one integrated push button solution. It would be better if the interface had beginner mode, and an expert mode. For example, when editing an existing backup set, one has to go through a wizard like interface with many screens even if you are only changing one thing. The user is forced to keep clicking Next>Next>Next>Next>Next>Next> until you are finally able to save your changes. Experienced people rather have all the information on a screen or two and be able to quickly get the area they need to modify. I've only had one question and I emailed technical support. My question was addressed in less than 24h which is reasonable. I know there are higher levels of support for additional cost if you need faster response time.

GBThis solution didn’t work for me This solution didn’t work for me, so I asked for a refund. They said no so I opened a dispute with PayPal and won. Then Andy contacts me and tells me “Filing a dispute is dishonest practice”, your business model is dishonest practice.
