Avoid - Poor Service And Restore Doesn't Work!
As other reviews have said, everything seems great up until the point you actually need to do a restore. I recently purchased a new computer and, rather than copying the files directly from my old PC to the new one, I thought I'd test out Backblaze by restoring the files I'd backed up to their service.Before I could download anything, their system explained that my files all needed to be compiled into one ZIP folder, then they would be available for download - it said this process should ...

Try a restore, you'll quickly cancel!
Everything seems slick until you try to restore. The web portal starting prepping my restore into a single zip file. It gave an estimate of 20 minutes to prepare the file for download. That was FOUR days ago. If you have a backblaze account try to restore.. you'll see what I mean. A backup application or service is only as good as it's restore capability. You cannot rely on this service at all when it comes to the important/critical component of restoring

nightmare
It was awful experience. On the 10 DEC 2018 my PC failed with burnout and when I got a new PC I failed to restore from BB but had to use my external hard drive image and other means to restore my data to march 2018. and then get data from others.From the 21 December 2018 daily and sometimes more than daily, for 10 days, I communicated with support and just went round and around in circles. The whole thing exhausted me and got nowhere. I am 76 and have been using computers since 1970 but ...

I would absolutely NOT recommend Backblaze…
I would absolutely NOT recommend Backblaze to anyone who expects service & professionalism. It has been a nightmare dealing with them.I recently bought a new MacPro & emailed Backblaze so I could restore the backed up data to my new computer. They sent me a USB hard drive which I found difficult to use ; I am not tech savvy. I had to unlock the drive. Then the drive backed up for a few seconds & stopped. At one point the support point person (who sometimes gave me an answer to my question ...

Wilfully excludes certain files without letting you know
Backblaze literally says on their website "Online backup of all your data" they should really change that to "online backup of some of your data and some which we choose not to backup because we don't want to backup everything" Not quite as catchy but more accurate for sure. My issue is they do not backup .lrdata files which are previews built by lightroom - a photo editing program - which take up 8 times less bandwidth than the camera RAW files. I had no idea that these weren't being ...
