I have full trust in Backblaze that, if something were to happen, I could easily retrieve what I need. Hopefully that never happens, but the benefit is having the peace of mind that our data is secure.

FAQ

What are the deployment options for backing up workstations?

Deploying Backblaze Business Backup for workstations across your organization is easy. You can use mass deployment tools like MSI Installer, JAMF, Munki, and others to deploy Backblaze to many workstations at once. Backblaze also offers a single management pane where you can deploy the backup solution at scale.

How long will Backblaze keep my files?

Backblaze offers one year of version history by default. You can upgrade to forever version history for an additional fee.

What is the best strategy for backing up a computer?

One of the best ways to approach backup is to use the 3-2-1 data backup strategy. That means keeping three copies of your data, on two different media, and keeping at least one copy of your data off-site. You might keep on-premises data backups on network attached storage (NAS) or a local server. For off-site backup, a cloud data storage provider is a great choice because it is inherently scalable as your company grows and it’s accessible when you need it.

Is Backblaze compatible with Windows and Apple computers?

Yes. Backblaze has Mac and PC clients so that you can run automatic backups on all of your organization’s workstations.

Can I manage my backup users’ accounts from a centralized dashboard?

Yes, you have the flexibility to effortlessly manage user accounts, both adding and removing them, all from a single dashboard. Moreover, you can amplify your administrative oversight by applying advanced controls to your Groups, ensuring even greater management precision.

How can I deploy Backblaze for my remote and hybrid employees?

The Backblaze client can be silently and remotely installed on both Macintosh and Windows computers with no user interaction. Within the Backblaze web console, admins have visibility into when files were last backed up, central alerting, and other detailed information pertaining to the backups. Admins can recover backed up files, prior versions of files, and deleted files directly from the web console.
