500GB Storage: 5.00€ / month

How does usage-based pricing work?

Your storage is billed in 100GB steps, with a 500GB minimum, and you can resize your backup storage at any time.

  • If you start the month with 500GB (€5), then resize to 1TB halfway through, your bill will be €7.50 - because it’s prorated.
  • If you only use the free tier (up to 100GB), your storage stays free forever.

Bob

Meet Bob.

Meet Bob, a well-meaning IT specialist who learned the hard way about backups. His data was like a single egg in one basket—fragile and vulnerable. But then he discovered the magical 3-2-1 rule: 3 copies of his data, on 2 different types of media, with 1 offsite.

Determined to prevent such tragedies, Bob mastered the 3-2-1 rule:

  1. Copies: Three separate copies for extra safety.
  2. Types of Media: External hard drives and cloud storage for diversity.
  3. Offsite: At least one copy stored securely offsite.

With his newfound knowledge, Bob became known as the Backup Hero. He saved his company from numerous data disasters and helped others implement robust backup strategies. His mantra? "Backup like your life depends on it, because it does!"

Take Bob's Advice:

Ensure you have three copies of your data, on two different types of media, with one offsite. It's simple, yet powerful. Start securing your digital future today!

Traditional backup solutions typically create full backup copies each time, consuming much more storage and bandwidth.
