I have decided to take advantage of a free trial offer to use Carbonite to backup my files.

I wanted to know if anyone here on the forum uses this company and are you happy with their service and is it as easy to use as they say it is. Also which plan is the best one. I have a laptop and a desktop that I would like to backup so any advice would be appreciated.

Thank you.

I do not use Carbonite, but think the main problem with any "cloud" storage is upload speed.  I once calculated that it would take over a year of continuous 24 hours/day, seven days/week to upload all my files.  Also, what happens to your data if the Carbonite company goes out of business?

I think a good alternative is a web-hosting plan.  For about the same cost you can get the storage plus your own web-site.
