Internet is filled with dozens of online backup/storage services which provide different levels of functionality, reliability, security and space to users. In order to cut through some of this clutter here are four online services that I have used and found to be reliable, functional and secure.
While putting this short list together I focused on three requirements:
- services had to provide a FREE option
- even that free option needed to be SECURE*
- and it should be available to both major OS platforms, Windows and Mac
While I didn’t focus on their support for mobile clients and saw those options as bonus features most of these services also work on mobile platforms (some with native apps) such as Android, Blackberry and iOS.
So without getting into details on what I like (or don’t) about each of these services here they are (in alphabetical order):
If you know of other FREE and SECURE online backup solutions please leave a comment and share your thoughts.
* While security is always questionable and could be discussed at great lengths, these services provide default encryption to all users which is a step in the right direction.
