"Well-intentioned but problematic backups"

3.5/5

What do you like best about One Backup?

I really want to love SpiderOak, they were the first to offer zero-knowledge backup and their focus on privacy is unparalleled. The security is top-notch and they support all platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about One Backup?

The desktop applications are incredibly resource heavy for a backup program even beyond the overhead I would expect for encryption. There is no simple way to prune backups so your backups eventually overfill and you have to manually (yes, using the command line!) prune all the old copies. This is an incredibly stupid design. Sync occasionally breaks for seemingly no reason, re-syncing can take hours to days even on a fast connection. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering One Backup:

Ask if you *really* need zero-knowledge backup or if there's some other way to implement that outside of your backup utility itself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is One Backup solving and how is that benefiting you?

Having too many free system resources and having too few files backed up in a secure fashion. It appears one cannot solve one problem without solving the other. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"One Backup is safe like no other service but expensive"

3.5/5

What do you like best about One Backup?

One Backup has extensive functionality to share with excellent synchronization functions. I like that it synchronizes all the files to the folders that I select and at the same time it creates a similar folder in the hard disk that is synchronized there. It also allows me to make backup copies of the files and applications of the system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about One Backup?

SpiderOak has high costs for its storage with the sole advantage of an unlimited number of users. I think it's the most expensive service I've seen. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering One Backup:

This service is compatible with Windows, Mac and Linux distributions which is a great advantage. It has excellent tools to store sets of files to backup and then restore. It has incredible security, however, its price is very expensive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is One Backup solving and how is that benefiting you?

One Backup was acquired to make backup copies of files and system applications that occupy a lot of disk space, but nevertheless, its usefulness is important on a day-to-day basis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
