User Testimonials
	Backblaze B2 Cloud Storage	Data Rescue
Likelihood to Recommend	Backblaze Providing the option of purchasing a much longer archive if desired or limiting the length of time in maintaining what's been saved is brilliant. It makes all the sense in the world. At the very least, unless the retention period is clearly mandated somehow, it causes a decision maker (especially a small business owner) to think strategically about what the storage needs truly are.

Pros	Backblaze Tight integration with OEM backup application Among the lowest price per TB cloud backup provider AWS S3 service integration Optional services for initial seeding of large backup data sets Optional services for physical backup retrieval to speed up recovery Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Prosoft Engineering No answers on this topic
Cons	Backblaze Deleting the data is not simpler and requires manual intervention Integration with third party tools needs much improvement as there are very less tools that can be integrated. Fewer data centres presently that restrict options to meet specific geographic redundancy or data sovereignty requirements.

Usability	Backblaze Since Backblaze added S3 compatibility a few years ago, it's become the most perfect online backup solution. I also like their transparency in describing their platform and the reports of hard drive reliability are very interesting. The free egress is priceless, too.

Alternatives Considered	Backblaze Backblaze is definitely the cheapest and most cost effective out of the 6 other services I've used in the past. For personal use, they are by and away the best service available. For business use, I believe they are a very strong contender to be the #3 guys behind AWS and Linode.

Return on Investment	Backblaze Difficult to quantify the peace of mind Backblaze B2 Cloud Storage services provides. Based on the reported experiences of other Backblaze B2 Cloud Storage clients, recovery has been smooth. We have not yet had the need to use that function. Because Backblaze B2 Cloud Storage's service has been seamless, I feel much more confident in their ability to deliver what they promise when we have the need to expand or enhance what we are purchasing from them.
