Installation is a snap. Carbonite’s online backup service starts
automatically and works quietly and continuously in the background
protecting your data. If you’ve accidentally erased something, don’t
worry; we’ve still got a copy. You can restore deleted files with just a
few clicks on your PC. If your PC crashes, just visit our website to
recover lost files.
Your data is stored safely at our secure remote backup centers. No
one can see your data but you because your files are encrypted before
they leave your computer. We use the same encryption techniques that
most banks and e-payment sites do.
Carbonite online backup software is always looking for new data on
your PC. The moment you add or modify files, Carbonite swings into
action to back up your data. Whenever your PC is connected to the
Internet (at home, the office, a hotel or airport…) Carbonite is working
to keep your data safe. And it will never slow down your PC or Internet
connection.
Yes! You can back up any or all of the files on your PC, and it’s
still less than $5 a month.
What do I have to do to back up?
After you download Carbonite, you can
manually select which files and folders to back up, or Carbonite can
select for you.
Your files are then doubly-encrypted
and automatically uploaded to our secure Internet servers.
You’ll never have to remember to
schedule a backup. Any time you modify a file or create a new one,
Carbonite detects these changes and automatically updates your
backup within 24 hours.
What happens when I need to restore files?
If you accidentally delete a file or folder, you can restore it with
just a few clicks. If your computer crashes and you lose everything,
simply reinstall Carbonite on your new or repaired computer. Carbonite
will automatically go into “Recover Mode” to help you retrieve your lost
files.
