Not bad… but remember, I’m looking at the long-term costs.Īnd I’m not longer getting ‘unlimited’ backup anymore.īottom line: CrashPlan will cost me twice as much moving forward.Ĭode42 has struck a deal with Carbonite as CrashPlan’s ‘exclusive partner for home users’ with a 50% discount when switching over to Carbonite.

The email explained that over the next 18 months, Code42 will exit the consumer market for online backup.

We’ve had a great relationship for the past five years. If you’re a CrashPlan customer, you’ve got some work to do…ĬrashPlan for Home has been wonderful as a Cloud backup solution at home for disaster recovery. If you prefer the occasional peace of mind as the ‘IT Guy’ at home, well… guess what? Here’s another reason why you might not get that anytime soon.
