The Ultimate Battle of the Online Backups!

Posted by – March 9, 2010

Over the next week or so, I’m intending to post my findings of a variety of online backup services. I’ve tested:

SquirrelSave (note: I work for the company that runs it and am it’s primary support)
Jungledisk
Mozy Home
Mozy Pro
SugarSync
Humyo
Backblaze
Dropbox

I run both Windows 7 and Mac OS X (Snow Leopard), and have attempted try both platform where offered. My findings may surprise you, and I still advocate that you beg, borrow or buy a portable USB hard drive at the very least to store a copy of your data locally or invest in a Blu-Ray writable drive (they’re becoming cheaper slowly but surely) and doing the same.
