I wish I could write a glowing review… I wish I could write a glowing review about Cloudberry but my experience has been less than satisfactory. Specifically, every backup to Google Drive has errors saying files (2) not found. I have searched for those "missing files" on Google Drive and my computer and I cannot find either one. I have written support and sent them everything they have asked for and the problem persists. I find it ironic that the Cloudberry response recommends AWS for backups. I am an Amazon Prime Subscriber and I signed up for Amazon cloud storage. However, I have stopped using it because it would never sync with specified folders on my hard drives. With Cloudberry it is always someone else's fault but, significantly, before you buy their web pages indicates their product works with Google Drive. Now it is Googles problem? I don't think so! Copied from the Cloudberry web page: Supported cloud storage services: Popular: Amazon S3 Amazon Glacier Microsoft Azure Google Cloud Storage OpenStack Rackspace Featured: Amazon Cloud Drive Azure File CenturyLink Cisco Google Drive OneDrive Oracle Cloud Scality SoftLayer vCloud Air (EMC) vCloud Air (Google)

Liked product but not customer service Liked the products but put off purchasing licenses by rude pre-sales staff. If pre-sales is like this, makes me wonder what support is like afterwards? Also they make it seem like they are doing me a favour by allowing me to buy their products? Not impressed! Decided not to purchase and ended up getting alternative products from people that actually value customers. Also no good for multi-cloud as need more that one version of the product.

Incredibly hit & miss (But mostly miss)... Incredibly hit & miss I have been using some of their products for some time now, and they are shockingly unreliable. 4 out of 5 times that I try to copy/move something to S3, their software just sits and does nothing. After trying again a few times, eventually it works. I have been unable to find any common thread in the instances where it doesn't work. I have tried it across different buckets, from different machines, copying and moving; it seems entirely random. In conclusion, not a product worth spending time or money on. Edit 1 - 21/12/2017: I have now given up on their products entirely. I think the 1 in 5 success rate I had was a fluke, as it went down to 1 in 20 or so. It was easier for me to program scripts in AWS CLI to do what this program was meant to do then keep trying. Edit 2 - 21/12/2017: The reply Cloudberry asking me if I have opened a support case is hilarious, and one of the reasons they only get 1 star (But I forgot to add it in my original review. You can't ask them for support unless you're a paying customer (and I am glad I didn't waste my money on software that doesn't work). Instead they direct you to some generic forums for IT questions. this wouldn't be so bad if they had their own dedicated sub-forum, but since they don't, you're on your own... Good luck with that... (This is also why I've reduced this to a 1-star review)

Solid 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.

Great option for multiple backups Great option for multiple backups - using Backblaze (first 10gb free). Switched from Crashplan (closed for home users) and Acronis (didn't work properly). Very flexible.
