Keepit vs Carbonite: Which is a better fit?

Michael S.: Hi, my name is Michael, I'm a director of research, I would give Carbonite a five out of five. For more reviews like this click below. I considered two main other options, I considered iDrive, as well as Google Drive Backup and Sync, but Carbonite turned out to be much better than both of those options. So there are two main reasons that I chose Carbonite. One of them is that Carbonite allows you to see very easily which files have been backed up, at least on a Windows machine. They have a little green dot that appears is in the bottom right of a folder and/or file icon, and that allows you to visually see right away if it's been backed up, giving you a peace of mind about that, whereas other solutions you have to click around and make sure in their software that it's backed up. So that's one thing. And then the other was that when you go to their online interface to access the files that have been backed up, it's much easier in Carbonite to navigate that site and to get to the files you need, and when you do want to download something, you're allowed to do that for up to 10 gigabyte files or folders, whereas other solutions, especially iDrive, I found that you couldn't do such large files or folders, and it was harder to actually achieve that, it wasn't as easy to use. So those are the two main reasons. Onboarding and getting the app ready to use was very easy for all the team members who use it. Basically you download it, install it like any other program. There is only one little thing you have to do which is give permission on your computer to all the files, and especially on a Mac there's a little process you have to go through, but they made that very easy for people to follow, so it wasn't really an issue. If you're considering Carbonite I just basically recommend that you go for it, it is the best option out there. It does have one limitation, which is it's per computer, whereas other solutions you can back up more computers with a single account. But in my opinion, Carbonite is the highest quality solution, it's worth that little bit of extra cost that you might pay for it. So basically if you're considering it, go for it, it's easy to install and easy to use.
