Mozy Home

We can all come up with a million reasons why we haven’t backed up our computers….but when the day comes that your beloved computer crashes on you, no excuse will bring your data back. Save yourself the headache of losing digital photos, customer information, account files, etc. Mozy offers 2 GB of 100% free file storage - a great way to start backing up your important data! If you need more room than that personal storage is $4.95 per month and business/pro starts at $3.95 per month.

Alternatives to MozyHome

  • Burn a new CD or DVD every Sunday night and store it at your brother-in-law’s office.
  • Pay $200/year for an online backup service that uses old, mediocre software.
  • Buy a $200 external hard drive and hope your office doesn’t burn down.
  • Do nothing and don’t worry about backup. (We suggest closing your eyes, plugging your ears and repeating “I’m in my happy place, I’m in my happy place.”)
  • Run a cron job of rsync, gzip and mcrypt piped over ssh to your friend’s server over his DSL line. https://mozy.com/home
