Backblaze B2 Cloud Storage Reviews & Product Details

Very reliable secure cloud storage with a competitive price tag. Easy to set up for a back-end storage for veeam backup and many other business continuity and disaster recovery solutions. Backblaze works great with veeam backup installed on an Azure VM to securely store our M365 backups in a separate cloud location. We use it daily and it has been so reliable that we've never had any issues that required contacting their customer support team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like most about Backblaze B2 Cloud Storage is the price. It is almost 10 times lower than the competition and offers practically the same features. Additionally, it offers large amounts of immutable storage at a very competitive price. Basically, it delivers on what it promises. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Navigating through the buckets from the web interface is complicated when they are very large. With those that store VEEAM and have large amounts of data and files, I can only do it through the web interface. Additionally, the visualization of the occupied size often does not match what VEEAM says. Initially, we had problems transferring everything due to rate limiting issues. We also use B2 to store Prometheus/Thanos metrics, and when querying a lot of historical data, it also gives us rate limiting. It's not critical, but it would be great if it worked for that as well.

I appreciate the ease of use with Backblaze B2 Cloud Storage. It's easy to set up and configure, with simple configuration per bucket. The fair pricing is another plus, even though the pricing can be a bit confusing because a portion is bandwidth-based. I find the performance in backing up data to be reliable and efficient.

While pricing is low, it can be confusing or opaque, since a portion is bandwidth-based. Could have a better per-month pricing breakdown report available on the user dashboard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Online services can always be cheaper and faster. However, We have had no issues meeting backup window targets and the price has been less than every other company we have looked in to.

Online file browsing could be more compatible with large datasets.

CLI tools could have more options for human readable output (rather than JSON), would be useful for epoch to localized timestamp information (needed for immutable file information) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Backblaze B2 stands out for its ease of use, smooth integration, and feature-rich platform. Setting it up is intuitive, and integrating it into existing workflows with tools like rclone or backup software is seamless. Its range of features—like lifecycle rules, bucket access controls, and CLI/API support—make it powerful without being overwhelming. It’s a service that just works, with minimal friction and excellent performance, especially when recovering data quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While Backblaze B2 is great overall, it could improve in a few areas. The initial implementation may require more technical familiarity, especially for users not accustomed to configuring APIs or CLI tools. Customer support, while functional, lacks the immediacy or depth of larger cloud providers. Also, for users with more occasional storage needs, the platform may not be used frequently enough to fully benefit from its capabilities unless it’s part of an automated backup strategy.
