If you're in the market for online storage or backup you've probably noticed there are a lot of services out there. EZ Backup has a unique approach to online storage that a lot of people like. This page highlights some of the unique benefits of EZ Backup that you're unlikely to find with other services.

EZ Backup is more than just backup

Most online backup services can only be used for basic backup. You select the files you want to backup and if you need to restore, you use their proprietary software or web page to select the files to restore, often waiting several minutes or hours before you can access your files.
EZ Backup has a great automatic backup system. It can easily be used for basic data backup, but EZ Backup also gives you a complete network drive that you can use from multiple machines - like an unlimited size USB drive that you can connect to from anywhere. The exclusive caching features in EZ Backup make it so that using your network drive is as fast as a local drive, and you don't need to constantly transfer data from the server. This also allows you to use your favorite 3rd party backup tool such as ChronoSync, SyncBack, or rsync to manage your data if you prefer - something no other online backup service offers.

No restrictions on what or how much you backup

Other online backup services place restrictions on what type of files you can backup or how much data you can backup in a period of time. In some cases you may not be able to backup your program files, large media, or system files. Even services that offer "unlimited" backup typically have restrictions on "reasonable" usage or reserve the right to terminate your service at any time with no reason. With EZ Backup, your storage truly is unlimited. Amazon S3's unique storage model ensures that you can never outgrow the service or become a burden. Simply select a plan that accommodates some future growth and if you go over that later, you'll have the option of upgrading to the next bigger size plan.
While "Unlimited" for a flat price may sound nice, how long can a company afford to provide a service that costs more than they are charging?

One price, no matter how many computers you have

A single EZ Backup license can be used across an unlimited number of computers with a single account. Other online backup services make you pay monthly for each computer you want to backup, even if you're only backing up a small number of files from each computer. With EZ Backup you only pay for the actual storage you're using across all of the machines running EZ Backup.

Use EZ Backup for backup, archival, or both

The backup features offered by many popular services will only backup data on your local drives, and if you delete the data they will remove it from your backup automatically (typically after 30-60 days). This means that you can't archive your files to the service to free up local space. Got a bunch of old movies you'd like to keep but are filling your drive? Or a directory with old documents you'd like to clean up, but keep copies just in case? With EZ Backup you can safely archive your data and have access to it anytime you need it in the future.

EZ Backup supports Mac, Windows, and Linux

EZ Backup software is cross platform, which is important even if you only use one operating system today. Your data may live online for years, and it's important that you be able to access it from any future platform as well. You'll also find that the Mac and Linux versions are not "second class citizens", as with other backup services. We support the same feature set across all three versions and release upgrades simultaneously. We've even done additional work to ensure that platform specific features such as resource forks and finder data work like you'd expect.

Your data is YOUR data

EZ Backup with Amazon S3 is an online storage service where the application is de-coupled from the storage and you "own" your own data. When you use EZ Backup, your files are stored on Amazon.com's servers using S3, an open web-service based API.  Your data is encrypted before it leaves your computer, and stays encrypted while stored. To further re-enforce the idea that you are in control of your data, we have made available open source code that can be used to browse and download your data without even using EZ Backup. This alone is something you won't find from any other online backup provider. EZ Backup's unique model means that the software and service will keep functioning, even if EZ Backup were to go away.

We're small, but Amazon is big

Last but certainly not least, EZ Backup's unique model helps keep our overhead low. We don't need to buy thousands of servers with terabytes of disk space, then hire all the people to run them - Amazon has already done that. Instead, we can focus on providing the best possible software and offering great support.  Amazon is large, public, and profitable too. How many other online backup companies can say that?

At the end of the day, who can you really trust with your data?
