In addition, versioning of your files takes place, allowing you to easily restore older versions of your data. The service doesn't synchronize your folders, but files can be automatically backed up after they've been modified. Further, when saving folders to Carbonite's cloud, their hierarchy is maintained. The overview of your stored files is clear, and accessible at any time through the web dashboard from any device with an Internet connection and browser. This makes it easy to use both the software and the web dashboard, however, at least in part, this is due to the service's paucity of functions and limited settings. Apart from that though, navigating through the software's menus is very straightforward on the PC, and nesting is kept to an absolute minimum. Taken together, the user interface is a little bit underwhelming.
#Carbonite endpoint backups stopped for free
Coupled with the annoying captchas for free users (but not for paying subscribers) we felt it fair to take a point away from Carbonite.
#Carbonite endpoint backups stopped install
We can't imagine a great number of new users wanting to install a program and spend hours waiting for it to finish copying all of their files and folders to the cloud.
Another positive is that Carbonite barely uses any system resources, and after configured to do so, will carry on all of its work unobtrusively in the background.Īpart from the lack of clarity in terms of subscription rates, we also found it a bit odd to automatically backup a user's entire system after installation, by default. The software's compactness means that it is easy to quickly integrate it onto your system, providing a great deal of convenience through the ability to backup anything by right-clicking on it. Overall, the most time-consuming part of the entire process was selecting the right subscription package in comparison, installation was a walk in the park. With that, you're done setting up the program and can start backing up files and folders.
