The two personal plans offer 5TB and 10TB of storage for $6.63 and $8.29 per month, respectively, which is probably more than enough cloud storage for most private users. None of the plans offer unlimited storage space like CrashPlan does, but on the flipside, you can backup as many devices as you like on a single subscription. Where the latter limits you to 30 past versions of a file, CrashPlan has no such restriction, letting you restore a file to its previous state no matter how many changes or how much time has passed. Where IDrive limits you to a certain amount of storage space, CrashPlan provides unlimited backup on all of its plans, meaning you don’t have to worry about your files being overly large.īesides this difference in storage space, CrashPlan also offers stronger and more flexible version control than IDrive. When comparing the features of the two services, it quickly becomes clear that there’s one main thing CrashPlan has that IDrive doesn’t - but it’s a big one.

CrashPlan’s Unlimited Backup & Version Control In the interest of brevity, we won’t waste your time by going through both service’s enormous feature sets (you can check out our full CrashPlan review and IDrive review for that) but rather focus on the things that separate the two. Here, we’ll take both use cases into account and pick an overall winner, regardless of whether you’re looking to backup your personal or business data.īoth IDrive and CrashPlan get high marks for feature sets, making our first round a difficult one to judge. IDrive is our favorite backup provider for personal users, while CrashPlan is the premier business backup solution.
