I’m fickle!
There, I’ve said it!
It wasn’t but six months ago that I was all excited about “Mozy,” an online backup system. Well, move over Mozy, I’m now going steady with “Carbonite.”
I think it’s the colors! No, seriously, the colors!
Dots on files and folders show you the status of your backup at a glance:
- A green dot on a file means the file is backed up.
- A yellow dot means the file is pending backup.
- No dot means the file is not selected for backup.
If you’ve not used Carbonite, you can take a test drive for 15 days.
“By default, Carbonite backs up everything in your Documents and Settings folder, including documents, photos, email and data files from applications, such as Quicken, Money, etc. Once a subscription is purchased, music is also added to the list. The default backup does not include programs, system files, temporary files, videos, or individual files greater than 4GB.
And, you can manually add files to your Carbonite backup.
When your computer is idle for some minutes or so, Carbonite will automatically backup files that have been changed since the last backup. If you’ve changed a file and want to back it up before the auto backup begins, you can mark the file as “back up as soon as possible.”
Carbonite is only $49.95/year per computer no matter how much you need to back up. No hidden fees. No limits on backup storage capacity.”
Here is the URL so you can find out more about Carbonite: www.carbonite.com.
I’m just awfully thrilled with this backup system.
This month!
