Great product, terrible customer service 👎 As others have commented, there are no longer live chat or phone options. This company grew a lot thanks to us customers, and now they are "too big for us". E-mail support is lacking. For example, I have recently had an open case for 14 days, without an answer. Finally when I did get an answer, it was irrelevant to my request, and a follow-up reply was an exact copy-paste duplicate. Stop spitting into the well you drink from. Bring back direct support, or else the growth we all gave you would soon be gone.

Unreliable; backblaze LOSES LOTs of files!! I have had the year plan for a year, on 1 computer, with 1 big external drive, about 1.3 TB of total data. But whenever that drive was disconnected, Backblaze would begin deleting its backed up files, after just 2 days! The Backblaze docs claim that it will hold my files for 30 days, but it begins losing or deleting them after just 1 or 2 days!! I have contacted support a year ago about this, but nothing was improved, the problem persisted constantly. It was also extremely difficult to cancel the recurring $99!

Best unlimited backup provider in 2023 No idea what most people on here are complaining about, if you check at least once a week, which takes ten seconds, to see if the backup is actually progressing, there will be no issues when restoring later down the line. The 500GB zip limit makes sense to some extend, since this solution is not meant for storing 10's of terabytes as some gladly would use it. I had no problems over the years and recommend them as a good backup provider for a good cost per month.

Good service, but canceling is ridiculously difficult 4star because their customer support pulled through. I kept subscribing for months after my computer died, because the process for canceling was way harder than it should be. I finally got my act together and asked for backup of my data on a $204 1TB drive. I had some issues recovering data that if unresolved, which would have resulted in a 1star review, but within 1 day their support gave me a workable solution and I am satisfied. The process for canceling service is ridiculously tough, and I checked through 3-4 different options and it seemed to work, but I don’t know if I checked too many or not enough. Regardless, it worked out, and if I needed an automatic backup in the future, I wouldn’t hesitate to consider Backblaze.

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
