![]() See the CrashPlan Docker support thread for a discussion on this. So again, does anyone know if the existing unraid crashplan docker will work with a crashplan for small business account? Does anyone know if the existing unraid crashplan docker will work if we were to migrate to a crashplan for small business account? The discount they are offering for the first year is very compelling and would give lots of time to consider alternatives and in my case, not have to re-upload 3.4TB of data somewhere else. The user who said they moved to G Suite, can you post some pictures of what the local interface looks like? Does it run as a service, as no one needs to be logged into the computer? I liked Crashplan a lot because it was just there working all the time and I never paid attention to it. ![]() I have to check and see what kind of interface they have. And with the Google name and/or backbone behind it, 24/7 support that might be my best option. I'll get unlimited cloud storage for $120/year. I may try that Google G Suite for $10/month. Crashplan always has worked great for me, but it is a daunting task to move. I backup approx 8 or 9 Window computers and several of my unraid folders. Now that Crashplan is going business only we are sure to see some "new" services pop up in the industry just to get some good money up front and then drop the ball when you really need them. Why don't we start a list of available offline backup companies we find here and list their pricing pros/cons. Otherwise, just stick with CrashPlan Business for your unRAID box, and backup all other machines to it. Last I checked, 2TB on BB B2 was $10/mo, so it seems to only be cost effective if you need less than that. Actually now that I think of it, CloudBerry would end up being more expensive than CP SB too probably. ![]() I guess I'm glad I posted this (in addition to getting in on the community thoughts/knowledge) it made me think through my situation, and sticking with Crashplan but changing what I backup is seeming like an attractive option for me. While it's unfortunate that Code42 is ending CP Home, I don't see a reason to get bent out of shape about it, I think overall they've handled it well, giving users advance notice and even extending subscriptions at no extra cost (though for those who have just signed up, I do think they'd have been well served to provide refunds). Anyone have thoughts on CloudBerry with BackBlaze B2 or Amazon? The main thing that sits wrong with me there is paying yearly for the software, plus the storage.įWIW, while I understand the frustration with the change, I think we have to remember that it's just unrealistic to expect companies to never change or end their products/services. Some other options I saw in the Crashplan docker thread, some people are using CloudBerry and backing up to Backblaze B2, which seems interesting. The real question there is: Will Crashplan SB be as easy to integrate with unRAID as Crashplan Home (docker container). Realistically, two of my machines don't need cloud/offsite backup, so I could start backing those up to my unRAID server, and then I'd be down to $120/yr with Crashplan SB, so it would actually be cheaper. The "easy" one is to just keep using Crashplan. Crashplan SB is $10 per machine, which for me would be $30/mo or $360/year. Right now I've got 3 machines on Crashplan Family, which was $150/yr basically. They'll be banking on 20% moving to a plan that's twice the price and 20% moving to their partner that they'll get a kick back for, clearly in need of a cash injection. I can only assume they're on the rocks or they'd have given 6 months notice. If you're concerned with nation state style attacks on your encryption, you should consider if your off-site server can really withstand that sort of attack as well because odds are it can't. Storing pre-encrypted files on a cloud provider isn't necessarily insecure. I would point out that good encryption is still as far as we can tell safe against even the most advanced attacker. I personally have someone I can swap space with for off-site so I'm looking for non-hosted solutions myself. To each his own, but there have been both cloud and home server options discussed. Or do we just throw our hands up in the air and say there's no privacy any more with facial recognition once you walk outside your house and just not worry any more? Maybe I'm being paranoid and I'm willing to re-evaluate. You guys all fine and dandy with sending everything up to some server somewhere? Encrypted or not. ![]() With the complete lack of privacy on the internet any more with some of the recent administrative changes with ISPs and such, I'm really uncomfortable sending my entire life up to the cloud from tax documents to photos to videos to comic book database, bank records, etc.
