Business continuity solution that lets businesses of all sizes manage drive image, PC privacy, data recovery, disk encryption, and more.
It is fantastic and going great. I really appreciate IDrive for providing such a platform with robust, secure, large cloud storage.
After a synced computer crashed and wiped the local hard drive, the synced documents were all lost. The cloud version either hadn't synced or had lost the files when the local PC crashed.
I had a great experience with customer service and their website is really user friendly which was important to me as I'm new to backups.
Occassionally the backups fail with the software reporting it cannot find certain files as they are missing. That is a bug because they have been intentionally deleted.
The 24/7 customer support is responsive and helpful, always ready to assist with any issues. Overall, iDrive Cloud Backup is a reliable, efficient, and secure choice for all your data backup needs.
Idrive states that it is compatible with Linux. It is, however, there is no program to install, only a series of Perl scripts.
What impressed me the most about iDrive is its seamless and reliable backup system that effortlessly safeguards my valuable files across all my devices.
Confusing accounts, not very smart client software.
What I like the most is that it is free. It also has a more friendly interface than other software programs like pyhton or matlab.
Its very slow sometimes loading a code for a plot, it gets stuck and hard to kill that session, I wish it was faster.
The packages are also great and allow you to solve more complex data issues than other programs, and it R is particularly adequate for polished graphs, using the ggplot package.
It was pretty difficult to use as I have never coded before and had errors that held me back for hours. For non-coders, it can be very difficult to use.
Nothing beats free and that is for sure true with R statistics because it offers a great range of functions for free. It is such a beautiful software to do graphs and run regressions.
Hard to understand the errors and debugging. Not able to work with large datasets.
I used this software briefly and loved the reliability, responsiveness, and quality.
Error messages are not always clear, and different R-studio versions can run differently, or not at all, with some library packages.
Sandy: Hi. My name is Sandy, and I am a CEO and I give IDrive a five. For more reviews like this, see below. I have used so many other backup drives and either they were too difficult to use, the customer service was really, really lacking. They need support just to get me to download files. It was very difficult. Poor customer service, even when I did finally get through to somebody. Getting to my files was an act of, I don't know, is really challenging. So I had a change and moved to IDrive. I chose IDrive because it gave me the capability of not only just backing up my computer and my C Drive, but I have four external drives. I have Dropbox. I have so many other external companies that I've been using that now I have been pulling it all into IDrive. I can access my files, I can see where the duplicates are and go in and change them. I can search for any file I want. I can either download it or see exactly the stream of which drive it's on and exactly where it's at, so I can find it so easily and then access it and use it or download it if I am somewhere and I need it and I'm not at my computer. So I can get to it from anywhere. I love it. It's like I'm consolidating all of my drives into IDrive and I use it daily to find where my duplicates are so I can de-dupe. To find out where the projects are that I need to work on and even duplicate or triplicate projects that need to be merged. It's fantastic. I use it every day and all day. As a solopreneur and a CEO, I literally have tried so many different backup drives and so many different programs, and IDrive was so easy. I got on the site, I downloaded the drive. It was there, and then I was able to drag everything onto it, and it worked perfectly. It's amazing. I really recommend it. If you are thinking about using IDrive, I really recommend it. Why? Because it's easy. You can actually even hand it over to an assistant and they can take care of it. It'll take all of the muss and fuss out of trying to find out where all of your files are, where any important data is, and it's all in one place. Being able to consolidate all of your information, all of your data, and put it into one place instead of having it scattered everywhere is such a bonus and it's easy. The customer service has been great and it works really, really well. I really recommend it.
