Mozy Review

Nickell.org poses an interesting question:

We know we SHOULD backup or important data, but it somehow gets put to the bottom of the TODO list.. it’s not glamorous, but there are times when you’d really be glad you did back it up. So if it is easy, secure, and FREE*? Why not…

A valid question, to be sure.

Secure offsite backup is a really good idea, but it usually comes with a high price, either in time invested or money. Then I discovered Mozy. Mozy is a free online backup, which even allows you to use your own text, picture, or other file to create a key so even they don’t have access to your data… They allow you to backup 2GB for free, which would take care of a lot of small business needs, or at least your financial data. If you have a lot of precious digital photos, 2GB might not be enough… in which case Mozy offers 30GB for very reasonable $5/month.

Looks like you’re out of excuses! Thanks for the Mozy review.
