iDrive is a straightforward backup solution that’s easy to set up, simple to maintain, and it meets my needs. I have about 3 TB of important data that I want safely stored elsewhere in case of hardware failure or a natural disaster. I can configure my backups quickly by dragging and dropping the folders and files I want. The GUI clearly shows what’s currently being backed up, what has already been backed up, and what still hasn’t.
iDrive also integrates seamlessly with my Mac OS, runs smoothly in the background, and gives me confidence that my data is protected. The cost for a year’s worth of storage feels very reasonable, and it seems much more secure than relying on multiple external drives, services with expensive retrieval fees, or options that require complex integrations.
The initial setup was easy, and I had my dataset securely backed up within 24 hours. Incremental backups are extremely fast and run quietly in the background.
The integrations with Google Cloud and Microsoft Office 365 look promising, and I may explore these in the future as my needs change. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I don’t have any major issues with iDrive Online, but it would be helpful if the agent could remind me when I haven’t plugged in my drive for a while so I remember to run a backup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
