So Happy with Carbonite!! I received great customer service! You actually get to talk on the phone with a real person that is super knowledgeable!! Their pricing can not be beat! I was with another cloud company, paying a lot more money, but could not get phone support and we had some issues we co...

I called with a simple request only to learn in that process that our multi-computer account was a mess! A long-ago disposed of computer our now-retired office manager kept paying for. An expired (but necessary) account. Old credit card numbers. Inactive primary email address. You name it, we had th...

This company has no concern for its customers. I used to use Mozy Pro, which was sold to Carbonite without my knowledge. Carbonite claimed to have sent an email notifying me. I did not receive an email. They should have sent a letter for such an important matter. When I found out, I assumed tha...

I have enjoyed Carbonite for 3 years. On the rare occasion I needed a document lost, I retrieved it easily. Just recently, I had the need to make a support call and the support engineer, Kirk, was superb. In short super professional.
Nice to know I have them should things go wrong

I am very disappointed with Carbonite! My hard drive crashed 2 days ago when I call technical support. I was told that my problem needed tier 3 support and they will email me in 48 hours.
Mirror Image didn't work for me. I needed my computer to run my business and 48 hour is out of the question. I ...

I have been using Carbonite services to back up my work daily to the cloud. It comes in handy when I need a file remotely on another computer or my phone. No worries if my computer is harmed or stolen. Basically it works great. The only issue I have is that during the day when working I have to p...

Excellent services and very responsive and knowledgeable support team.
I needed to recover a number of important files and the Carbonite support team walked me through the entire process. I recovered all my files quickly and it was a lot easier than i thought it would be.

I always dread the task of getting technical support on any software. They normally have the worst telephone equipment plus the thick foreign accents UNTIL TODAY! I was greeted at the appropriate volume with a pleasant "hello this is Jeremy" and he never missed a beat. We accomplished setting up ...

I've had Carbonite for several years, because I travel between places and having a cloud-based backup sounded wise. Until, that is, my hard drive crashed. I bought a new computer, and experienced the following problems with Carbonite.
1) Data transfer seems "throttled," though they deny this. I was...

Everyone knows Carbonite says they securely backs up your files. That's comforting, until your computer crashes and you begin wondering if they do what they say. Mine once crashed and all files were restored, including those on my external hard drive. What many may not know is that Carbonite Custo...
