Next time I run a backup, it started from zero. I was in contact with support for nearly two months and after sending logs and getting patches they never solved my problem. Each time a scheduled or manual backup started it erased all my files on the servers and uploaded them all over again. I actually went into my account and it said 0kb, confirming that my files were erased. At the end I had to cancel my account. I tried Mozy and after I uploaded all my files.

I'll definitely check it out. As for Mozy, like most things I have heard both positive and negative. Sorry to hear you had a bad experience. @Sarah Thanks for the note on Backblaze!

I didn't have much luck with Mozy. Basically they were slow and their support told me its because they are not meant to backup all your data, just important docs but no music, photos, or video. Backblaze is super fast and painless and is the same price. I have never tried Carbonite though I have been using backblaze and love it. I didn’t have much luck with Mozy.

They don't sell anti-virus software or an OS. They make good computers and printers. With the downturn in the economy it was probably a good idea for them to focus on what they do best and leave the online backup to the people that do it best, Mozy, Carbonite, IDrive and others. HP's leaving online backup is a great benefit for users that are looking to backup with Mozy, since they are offering 20% off. That is a good deal and one of the best discounts you can get from Mozy.

Mozy and Carbonite both understand the business and are passionate about it - Yahoo and HP were just looking for another buck. There are a few <a href="http://www.onlinebackupsreview.com/hpupline.php" rel="nofollow">promotional codes exclusive for HP Upline users</a> from Mozy and others. Good for them on picking up where HP left off. Goes to show that just because there’s a big name & bankroll behind a product, doesn’t mean it’ll be successful.
