I would prefer to transition my family members to a service equivalent to CrashPlan Home, but there doesn’t seem to be one that’s good. I’m not sure what differences there might be in switching to the business version, but based on the way the company has behaved I no longer want to rely on them. Plus, depending on your data set and connection speed-my mother has less than 100 GB of data but only a DSL connection-it may take months just to upload the current versions of your files to another provider. If you switch to another provider and later find out that you need to restore a version of a file from 2016, you’re out of luck. This is the only transition option that will preserve your years of backup history. They’re keeping the small business plan, which at $10/month is twice the cost of the individual version (which itself had gone up quite a lot in recent years). We are committed to providing you with an easy and efficient transition. This means that over the next 14 months we will be exiting the consumer market and you must choose another option for data backup before your subscription expires. It’s because of this trust that we want you to know that we have shifted our business strategy to focus on the enterprise and small business segments. We’re honored that you’ve trusted us to protect your data. Thank you for being a CrashPlan® for Home customer. CrashPlan ( Hacker News, MacRumors, Reddit, 9to5Mac, Backblaze):
