Continuous Backup

CrashPlan constantly flags changes for backup and then backs them up once a day. CrashPlan+ immediately backs up those changes as you work, continuously protecting your files without slowing you down.

Data Compression

Files are greatly compressed using advanced compression technology. Duplicate files and parts of files are automatically identified and stored only once.

Scheduling

Control when CrashPlan backs up and when your friends are allowed to back up to you.

Multi-Fork / Stream

Back up everything about a file, not just its data.

Works Out of the Box

CrashPlan uses advanced technology to help computers connect without the usual configuration hassles.

Open File Support

CrashPlan and CrashPlan+ back up open files on Mac and Linux. CrashPlan+ also backs up open files on Windows using VSS.

Unlimited Versioning

With CrashPlan, you can move backward in time, restoring previous versions of files.

Multiple Destinations

Back up to as many destinations as you want: across the street, across town or across the country! CrashPlan prioritizes backups to minimize the time needed to backup. For example, small new files are given priority over old, big files. Local backup is given priority over backing up to online destinations.

Unlimited File Size and Backup

Supports files larger than you'll ever need, plus there's no limit on how much you can back up.

Smart Prioritization

Files that are most recently changed get backed up before those that are older.

Exclude Files

Specify which folders and filenames you do not want backed up.

Move Back in Time

You can restore previous versions exactly how they looked at a particular time of day. You control how many previous versions to retain — from 1 to unlimited.

Quick Recovery

Easily recover accidentally deleted or saved over files.

Onsite or Over the Internet

Restore large amounts of data locally in just minutes! To restore 100GB of data over the Internet takes weeks for most people. With our local restore feature, you can have your data back in minutes!

Search

Where was that file? Use the built-in search feature to locate files to restore.

Bandwidth Throttling

Easily limit how much bandwidth is used while you're at your computer and while you're away.

Remote Web Administration

Remotely manage your backup through our secure web interface.

Choose your Backup Destination

Back up your files to somewhere you know and trust. This way, you can get your data back in hours instead of weeks, and your data isn't mixed in with everyone else's, making it a prime target for identity theft.

Offsite

Only offsite backup secures your files against theft, fire, and other local disasters.

No Monthly Fees

Back up to your own destinations for no monthly fees.

Unlimited Backup

Unlike online backup services, CrashPlan costs the same no matter how much you back up.
