I use Dropbox, Skydrive and Idrive. All work well and have there pros. IDrive is one of the best paid option for continuous backup. You can get 150GB for just under $5 per month.
Thanks, A. Tatum Jr.
Is really helpful your informaiton. And yes, IDrive sounds ike a good option with a really good prize. Maybe I will try it :)
Too Good.
So cool! I’m really interested in this, because I’m starting to be more careful with my files because I had one big problem few weeks ago and I lost everything.
This is very helpful! What is the best for you? :)
There is another option to backup data to cloud storage powered by Amazon S3. Check out CloudBerry Backup. It is onetime fee and the rest what you pay for Amazon S3. Besides, there is no proprietary data format and you can access your data using other Amazon s3 tools. It supports all AWS regions, Reduced Redundancy Storage and access to cloud storage using the virtual drive.

Unfortunately, saving up your files in your personal computer does not guarantee that all information will be saved. Be aware that accidents and system failures do happen. Backing up your data can prevent data loss when for example files and folders from your computer are deleted by failure or accident.
Myself, I use Dropbox. It’s really a great tool to share work with my clients and visa versa… and of course to back up my work. Great article. Going to check the others out too.
I do the backing up of my data on my PC. Having it online I think is risky. You don’t know if it’s really safe out there. Rather have it beside me. ^^
