User Testimonials
	Backblaze B2 Cloud Storage	MSP360 Backup
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.

Cons	Backblaze My chief complaint about the former lack of S3 compatibility was resolved so I have no complaints now. Please keep egress free! Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	MSP360 No answers on this topic
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 B2 Cloud Storage is the best of the bunch. It's priced better than the more expensive cloud based solutions and more robust than the file storage sites like Dropbox or Google Drive.

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.
