Often we are asked: "Where is the best small business online backup?"  backed-up data? Somewhere far, far away. These online services will keep your data safe no matter what sort of disaster strikes your local PCs.  Local backup to external or optical drives is an excellent practice, but it can't always protect your precious data.

Everyone says that time is money, so why are you spending so much time comparing online backup vendors when we've already done the work for you? The Compare Backup Vendors and Compare Business Continuity reference charts on this site were designed to take some of the confusion out of your backup vendor shopping experience. We've put many hours into calling vendors, gathering information, and organizing everything into a format that actually makes sense. And in case you're still on the fence and can't decide which solution is right for you, we've been doing individual reviews of leading vendors, just like the one below. To see our other reviews in addition to this i365 Review, visit our Backup Vendor Reviews page.

Well, we know how you feel, because we found it confusing as well. That's why we've worked so hard to create the Compare Backup Vendors and Compare Business Continuity charts you'll find on this website, and why we'll continue to review the leading vendors based on three essential service areas - data backup, disaster recovery, and business continuity.
