Backblaze: worth knowing

  • RemoteBackblaze positions Business Backup for remote and distributed teams, deployed through MDM tools such as Jamf, Iru (Kandji), Addigy and Intune. source
  • OfficeOffice file servers and NAS cannot be protected with Computer Backup; Backblaze directs server/NAS backup to B2 Cloud Storage integrations. source
  • RemoteLarge restores can be shipped worldwide on an encrypted USB drive, prepared and shipped from the U.S. source
  • SecurityWith a private encryption key, Backblaze itself cannot access backed-up data, and a lost key cannot be recovered. source

Where this data comes from

HelpCompare records pricing and feature data from vendor pricing pages and documentation at the time each comparison is researched, then re-checks it on a published schedule. This entity page is generated from those records — it does not introduce any figure that has not already been verified on a comparison page.

  • Vendor pricing and documentationwww.backblaze.com, checked September 19, 2026.
  • HelpCompare research — 2 comparison pages listed above, each with its own verification date.
  • G2 — aggregate rating and review count (none recorded for this tool). Review counts change daily; treat them as a snapshot.
  • Machine-readable copy/data/tools.json, /data/tools.csv, and the open data hub.
Prices change often and vendors do not always announce it. Every figure here carries the date it was last checked — confirm current pricing with the vendor before you buy. If you find something out of date, the comparison page it came from is linked in the table above.
