subject: Review of Data Deposit Box Online Backup [print this page] Review of Data Deposit Box Online Backup
Overall Data Deposit Box is a solid, very secure internet backup service. The client's look and feel is a touch dated but it has that 'built to last' quality which gives the impression that this utility will never let you down and will last forever. The backup features are excellent, although the lack of an ability to schedule backups is a bit strange. In our tests, the first backup of 2Gb of data took a long time: Over 4 hours, yet this has to be weighed against the fact that there was almost no system or bandwidth reduction since the client stops whenever you use the PC. The pricing is good if you have a limited amount of data that needs protecting on several PCs. If you have loads of data then this utility could get quite costly. Also you will want to monitor data expansion if you want to control costs. The private sharing and photo album features are great touches however it would be good to see this expanded by links with web document services like Google Docs and Zoho as well as photo editing services. As a final summary we would say that Data Deposit Box is a excellent solution if you have a small amount of data spread across multiple PCs. If you have a lot of data then there are cheaper solutions available.
