Support is absolutely terrible Support is absolutely terrible. All you get is canned responses and ZERO actual care for your specific issue. One of the worst customer support experiences EVER.

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!

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.

Black hole of customer service If I could give negatives stars (black hole perhaps) I would. I have been working over a week trying to get the software working since an upgrade of their software last week - and getting incomplete instructions or the same, non-solution solutions for something that probably needs tier 2 support. After 3 tries of reinstalling the software and trying to inherit my original account, I tried one last time. Only to discover that software limitations won't display more than 3 items so won't even display my original account to choose and so I am now DOA. Once again waiting for a couple of days to hear back from customer service. Unless I get resolution this time, I'm cancelling and going with another product. There are no phone numbers to call and trying to resolve complex problems via emails that happen once a day is not adequate customer supsport.

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.
