Online backup service provides you the facility to transmit your important data over the Internet and securely stored on a server in a professional data center instead of being stored on your own CDs, DVDs, or backup tapes. Here are the three top backup services :
1. Mozy
To get started with Mozy, visit their website and sign up for an account. Download and install their software, tell it what files or types of files to backup, and then set it to automatically backup whenever you like. Mozy gives you up to 2 GB of storage on Mozy's servers. MozyHome costs $4.95/month and allows for an unlimited amount of data backup. This service sets Mozy above all others.
2. IDrive-E
Some features that make IDrive-E stand out among the competition include mapped drive support, file sharing, more frequent continuous backup, and support for server operating systems. IDrive-E Basic is completely free and gives you up to 2 GB of storage. IDrive-E Pro costs $4.95/month and they advertise "unlimited backup." However, their Terms of Usage page defines "unlimited" as no more than 150 GB.
3. Carbonite
Carbonite's online backup service works in a similar way to the other services - you download and configure a piece of software and the backup is handled automatically in the background. Carbonite's service costs $49.95/year and allows for an unlimited amount of data backup.
