Pick if you want one or two storage locations for your backup data. I have a 200 Mbps internet connection and a small amount of data, so I choose the Local or Cloud Backup option. If you have a slow internet connection, or just a massive amount of data, you may want to do the hybrid option. Once the wizard starts you get to choose if you want to store your backup data in one location or a hybrid of two locations. You have both file level and imaged based backups in CB Backup Desktop Edition To get started select Files or Imaged Based from the top ribbon. I wanted to see all the geek stuff, so I picked advanced. Do you like Simple or Advanced?ĬB Backup Desktop Edition has both choices for you when you go to create your backup job. Now we are ready to create a backup job and send data to our Azure storage account. One piece of advise I would give CloudBerry is to make these fields names the same as what the storage provider calls them as it can be a bit confusing to someone new.Īnyhow, after entering that information click OK to save the settings. In the “Account” field you will want to put your storage account name, then paste in your access key into the “Shared Key” field. You need to grab your storage access key from your Azure Storage account If you haven’t already created an Azure storage account do that next, then go into the Access Key panel and grab one of your access keys. Storage Account creation step 1Īfter selecting Azure you will be presented with the Azure parameters required to create a backup storage location.

As I said before I will be using Azure, so from the Welcome tab I needed to click the plus icon beside of “Storage Accounts”. Create a Backup Storage LocationĬreating a storage location is pretty easy, as everything is wizard driven. I choose Azure Blob storage because I am familiar with Azure, and already had an account created. Once you figure out where you want to send your backups step 1 is to create a Backup Storage entry.

I challenge you to find some type of backup storage that CB Desktop Edition doesn’t support! (HAHA Seriously, what is Dunkel? I totally thought that was just great German beer!)

It also has a variety of backup targets… Storage Providers Galore! Recovery Jobs, which can be individual files, entire filesystems (ie many files and folders), or entire volumes. It has Backup Jobs which can be file or block base. Which is great because it makes it really simple to get running. (which, by the way, is the only perk I have received from CloudBerry) Product architectureĬloudBerry Backup is much like any other backup product from an architectural standpoint.

I initially downloaded the free version, but when I was asked to do a review, I received a license key to enable to paid version features. To bring you up to speed, I’ve been using CloudBerry Backup Desktop Edition to protect my desktop for over 3 months.

(Server backup is similar but a separate product.)

Back then it was called CloudBerry Online Backup, it’s now called Windows Desktop Cloud Backup. It has been a few years since my first look at CloudBerry Backup.
