Why choose Backblaze Computer Backup over Code42?

Backblaze offers enterprise-grade backup with unlimited, automatic backups natively designed for both Mac and PC, seamlessly deployed and managed via Jamf, Kandji, and more.

Unlimited and automatic

Lightweight Mac and PC clients back up all user data by default. No manual actions or system slowdowns—perfect for enterprise-scale backup needs.

Comprehensive coverage

Protection for just $99/computer—with no surprise charges—plus monthly, yearly, or two-year billing flexibility. Software, storage and version history included for budget predictability.

Flexible restore

Restore files of any size, via download, shipped drive, or Backblaze B2 Cloud, and benefit from flexible restore options designed to meet your diverse organizational needs.

We saw more installation issues than we wanted with CrashPlan. It also has an operational issue with rogue files not being backed up.
