The cost per terabyte is commendably low and was the initial reason I tested iDrive. Backups have worked as expected and I hope never to have to use the recovery service for anything other than testing purposes. Upload speeds are limited by my bandwidth and I would definitely use the mail-in Express service if the UK shipping charges were more reasonable, or they had a UK-based upload service. It's also difficult to set up background process limitations, and that worries me with battery powered devices like a laptop, where I don't want the software to be running constantly in the background and draining battery life. Visually, it looks very outdated and in need of a refresh. The user interface (UI) is clunky and can be difficult to navigate. Being able to back up flash drives is also another feature that many other services don't offer natively. I also like that it has a companion mobile app that also backs up your phone's/tablet's files, and also allows you to access your backed up file. The pricing was better than many other cloud backup services.
I like being able to schedule back ups, as well as the shared cloud folder that is automatically backed up and updated (if you turn it on in the settings). I would appreciate an updated UI to make things cleaner and easier to understand.
Opmerkingen: So far I've enjoyed using this service and it does its job.
