Carbonite online Backup

I had heard the radio ads about carbonite online backup but had never used it. What got me interested was a client called me to get my opinion about carbonite online backup and I had be honest and tell him that there was a lot of those web companies offering online  backup of your data for a fee and that I didn’t know if one was any better than the other.

My client was not the type to be swayed by the latest gimmick and fad so I ask him what interest him about cabonite online backup. He reminded me that I had over the years did a great job keeping his computer running good but there was that one time that he lost his hard drive from a virus and that recovery of a manuscript of the last book he was writing was most destroyed. This meant over a year of his work was almost lost and he felt that he would give cabonite online backup a try because it was only $55 a year and it was worth the peace of mind to know that he had a second backup plan.
I couldn’t blame him for wanting an additional protection beside the backup plan I set him up with because it did fell when it can time to restore his data. So I told him go for it and call me back in few weeks and let me know how it works. In the mean time I did my investigation of cabonite online backup and here is what I learned.
By default, Carbonite backs up everything in your Documents and Settings folder. Carbonite costs only $54.95/year per computer no matter how much you need to back up. No hidden fees. No limits on backup storage capacity.
