OPENRSM CloudBackup just works. You can create multiple backup jobs, choose the files you want to back up, set up rules and schedules. Some of the extended features are retention of previous file versions and optionally removing files deleted on the local system.
For my first month of backups, I expected a bill of around $30. But it didn’t cost anything extra at all (I only had 32GB once I remembered to delete my bulk and spam folders). Considering that this is including a first-time upload that I won’t have in subsequent months, that was a pleasant suprise. I have loads of pictures and videos, so it’s a good thing to get those backed up off-site in addition to my regular backups.
One fantastic feature is that OPENRSM CloudBackup has 256 bit AES Encryption for keeping your data safe. That’s what alot of government departments have to keep files safe and it’s about as powerful a method as you’ll get for online backup. This means your data isn’t going to get stolen. That’s just so cool it’s hot. And when you use it on multiple computers, it keeps each computers data totally seperated. And if you have to restore, just make sure to use the same system name on the rebuilt machine and CloudBackup will do the rest.
I’ve been so pleased with OPENRSM CloudBackup as an application and a service. When doing backups, CPU usage has been minimal, and on my cable modem, web and email speeds haven’t degraded at all, if any. And if I ever do it’s simple to use bandwidth throttling to let me do other things while my online backup goes on uninterrupted.
Being able to have a unified backup system lets me keep my sanity while maintaining my home and work systems which have Linux, Windows, and OSX in them.
