Protection for all your files.

When used in precisely the right way, a sync solution like Microsoft OneDrive can provide some minimal protection from file loss. A true backup solution is much more accommodating of possible failures. It works with you to protect a complete copy of your important data in any scenario, regardless of what platform you’re on or how you prefer to work.

In-Place Protection

CrashPlan protects all the data on your system in-place without requiring you to save files in a specific location or only use pre-approved programs. Additionally, with all user-generated files included by default and fully customizable exclusion criteria, you never have to worry about an overlooked filetype again.

True Backup

A true backup is a completely independent copy of your data. By design, a sync solution syncs stuff. That means any update made to any file affects all copies; even when that change is bad. CrashPlan breaks that chain. It provides an immutable copy of your files so that you never have to worry about unintended changes.

Platform Parity

CrashPlan provides identical support for all three major desktop platforms (macOS, Windows, and Linux). There is no need to have different training, deployment, or settings by operating system. Allow your users to leverage the system that works best for their workloads without additional overhead or risk.

“We can capture some things with sync apps but that doesn’t meet the full need. We need something that we know is going to be proactively fetching that data and backing it up to a secure third location. For us, that’s CrashPlan.”
