This is a good deal for Carbonite. Carbonite is something that I would use and I am interested in it. I have a lot of files that I need to backup. I like the customer reviews. The way the view is good as well. Kept me watching.

Your commercial makes Carbonite sound like a useful service. It’s effective, but a little long. It drags during your “testimonials”. Perhaps you should highlight its potential uses & address some obvious questions… Can you access your data from anywhere? Is your data safe & secure? Can you sync files & folders across multiple computers? How long does it take to run a backup? Does the program always run in the system tray?

This is a good start, though!

Carbonite sounds like something I would consider using. However, the video doesn’t say if the service works with Macs or on Linux machines. If it does, say so. Also, it says “less than $5 a month, I want to know the actual price. Just put the price in the video.

Sounds really cool, I’ve used couple of online storage websites but watching your video and looking at Carbonite has changed my mind and I’m surely looking forward for carbonite now.

Sounds very cool. I have used online backup before, but as they were free services, they would sometimes delete my older data if I hadn’t accessed it in a while. Very not cool of them to do!

seems a good option to make back up but dont mention anything about guarantees or the privacy of my documents aand the persistence of the those, it should ensure the product and offer money back if something is lost

Nice video on the importance of backing up the files in a computer. However, how is it better than those free file backup websites around? Carbonite will be a good try if there is money back guarantees and free trial provided.

You’re right-I totally forgot about the Mac support. Yes, Carbonite supports Macs but not Linux. As for price, a one year subscription starts at $54.95. It’s cheaper than that though if you go with a 2 or 3 year service. If you click on the link in the video description, you’ll see the pricing for all the subscriptions and you’ll get 10% off so the one year will actually be $49.45 – just $4.12/month.

I did briefly mention the privacy in that your files are encrypted using the same technologies financial institutions use to protect their data online. Carbonite doesn’t offer any privacy guarantees (no online backup service does that I know of). However, given the encryption that is used, the likelihood of your data being comprised is extremely small.

The free services usually limit the amount of data you can backup. Carbonite is unlimited. Also, as someone mentioned in the comments, some of those free services will delete your data if you don’t access your account after a period. They also don’t allow remote file access (most don’t anyway). Carbonite does.
