Once your data is online, you can access it via iDrive's web interface, sync files with your other devices, and there are even mechanisms for sharing files via email, Facebook and Twitter.

But for all its power, we found iDrive's apps very easy to use, and our speed tests revealed backup performance was a good match for Google Drive and the top storage contenders. And with most plans covering multiple devices, you can protect as many of these as you like with a single account.Ī lengthy list of backup options starts with simple file and folder protection, but you can also protect your iPhone's photos, videos, contacts and calendar, maybe add SMS on an Android phone, even create a full disk image for disaster recovery purposes later.

Wide platform support ensures you're covered on anything from Windows 7 or Windows Server 2003 up, along with Macs, Android and iOS devices, Linux via assorted scripts, and a range of network-attached storage devices: QNAP, Synology, Netgear, Asustor and more. IDrive is a top-notch cloud backup service which caters for everything from simple photo backups for your mobile, to syncing and sharing files across your network, to protecting SQL, Exchange, SharePoint and many other servers.
