Buy once instead of Backblaze Personal Backup
2 apps in the directory cover what people use Backblaze Personal Backup for. Each one is a one-time purchase.
Backblaze Personal Backup costs about $99 a year. At that rate Carbon Copy Cloner, the cheapest dollar-priced replacement at $49.99, pays for itself in 6 months.
Read the catch on each one before you switch — a one-time price is not automatically the better deal, and we say so where it is not.
