Painful restore process. Horrendous support. As a small business we paid Crashplan hundreds and hundreds of pounds over years to keep our data safe, knowing that one day we'd have to restore a backup. After a hard drive failed, that day came, and with it another shock; the restore process. It took days upon days to recover some of the files over ridiculously slow transfer rates. Software crashed, or failed to log in, transfers failed part way through, and direct downloads (limited to 250MB) via the web dashboard failed regularly. Terrible support service via email who basically didn't want to know. Avoid this company at all costs, there's far better solutions out there.

NO CUSTOMER SUPPORT > : ( sh!t service. The app stopped connecting on my computer, system stopped working altogether. Go into my account to see whatsup- I never forget my passwords, somehow says I don't have correct PW. So I can't even log into my account - they say they'll send a "forgot pw email" I get NO e-mail. Try to find their customer service there IS NO "customer service" the phone number goes STRAIGHT to voice mail - there's no one helping. I had no other solution than to call my bank and put a BLOCK on this stupid app.

horrific customer service They dumped all of us personal users and now only do businesses. They've made it IMPOSSIBLE to ever reach a person. Horrible customer service. Make everything WAY too complex to do anything on the account anymore. When you have a problem you have to submit a "ticket" which no one ever answers. Goodbye!!!!!

Like others have commented Like others have commented, they keep changing their terms & conditions and now for the first time ever I need to get my files back after replacing a device. Got about 10% of my files back. Software functionality pathetic. Now forced to download the files manually through their rubbish web interface. There is one reason and one reason alone to use a Cloud backup and that is data security. I am afraid you will NOT get that from this solution. DO NOT USE this software.

Poor support The worst part about Crashplan is they have no way to contact them via telephone. Support is handled through a ticketing process and they are slow to respond. I closed an account in 2023 and they continue to bill every month for it.
