A long-standing set-and-forget option. Unlimited on the entry plan, but dated and slower than newer rivals.
Best for: Simple single-PC backup. Price: From ~£5/mo.
Carbonite has been doing set-and-forget backup for years, and it still does the core job: unlimited backup for one PC, running quietly in the background.
Simplicity and a long, boring (in a good way) track record. Continuous automatic backup with minimal fuss.
The app feels dated, backups can be slower than newer competitors, and features like external-drive backup or a full mirror image cost more.
Someone who wants dead-simple single-PC backup from a familiar name.
Multi-device households or anyone who wants the fastest, most modern app.
