CR is welcome to its opinion, and no doubt they’re right from a technical standpoint. I made my own evaluation from the two companies’ websites. I chose Carbonite based on price, ease of use, and no limit on storage.

Mozy is rated better than Carbonite by Consumer Reports...

You know what, it's Carbonite that I had decided to use, not Mozy. I forgot ! Thanks for reminding me. Carbonite definitely came out ahead of the others, when I researched them all.
Cheers,
JoJo

I started using Carbonite a few months ago. It's wonderful! You select what you want to back up...once! It handles backups in the background and any time something changes or is added to the areas you're backing up. It even emails you an alert if it hasn't been able to get to your system (I had it turned off while on vacation) It's cheap too...$50 a year. I haven't had to use it to restore yet, thankfully, but have been told by others that it's an easy and painless process.
