IDrive for Mac supplies a similar enough interface and experience that it didn’t warrant any additional screenshots in the gallery. Enabling “continuous” backups will have the software check periodically for changes to files and back them up. Heavy users will be pleased to see that the IDrive Portable option can be purchased with data pre-loaded on it, thus significantly decreasing rebuild times after a catastrophic failure.Īn interesting feature is that IDrive can wake a PC or Mac from sleep/hibernate to run a backup. IDrive Pro adds the ability to add additional accounts so multiple users can log into the web interface to manage files. One will also get access to better support by signing up, and larger plans allow for multiple computers to share the space. I was able to upload at the same speed to IDrive’s servers as I did when I reviewed Mozy Home, so without a better definition of what “good” versus “better” performance is, I wasn’t able to find a speed limit. IDrive Pro upgrades your storage and claims to have “better” performance according to the comparison chart found on their website, which can be found here. The free 2 GB 5 GB IDrive Basic account is a fully-featured product offering, and gives a very good indication of what you can expect from the paid IDrive service. The review will touch upon each of these solutions with the exception of Sync due to its beta nature (and not easily found on the website), and EVS since it’s not really a consumer or SOHO/SMB product.
