It sucks It sucks! massive price increases and all kinds of sleazy tacktings to prevent you from cancelling the renewal.

Woeful product and even worse customer service. AVOID!! The one time I needed to use the download function, their software does not work and then the backup was missing lot of important files from months earlier even though it was on continuous backup. Their customer service is a joke. Do yourself a favour and avoid at all costs

Unreliable For Business Use Unreliable For Business Use We used Backblaze, but they closed our account due to a fake DMCA complaint without verifying its validity or checking for the existence of files in our account. Their customer support is unreliable and often response is computer-generated AI nonsense. I wouldn't recommend using them despite their good pricing model. We were not even given the chance to move our files. Luckily we have a backup with Digitalocean otherwise we were secrewed.

Unaccountable, Faceless and less than accomodating service Their support team only send pre-generated responses to your concerns. They failed to review our account utilization when their system fails to properly remove outdated files based on the set policy. Also, their download costs are through the roof. We were charged several thousand when some 3rd-party unrelated to our company downloaded several 100TB of our data. They have no accountability for failures in their automated platform. Avoid like the PLAGUE!

Only useful in some cases Pros: very fast, doesn't hog CPU or memory like CrashPlan Cons: deleted files are only retained for 30 days. Backblaze is essentially only useful in cases where a hard drive completely fails / external hard drive is physically broken. If a hard drive starts slowly corrupting over time, or if you accidentally delete files and don't realize it within the 30 day limit, you're screwed. Absolutely useless in those cases.
