Secondary backup using Crashplan

[phlight]

I think veeam is great and I have on-site and off-site backups with the software. For the sake of diversity/redundancy I'd also like to backup my file servers with Crashplan (free). Is anyone else doing this? Have you experienced problems? I wasn't planning on backing up the veeam backup files but actually installing the software and have it running backups on the file servers. I feel that approach gives me an added layer of protection should veeam be experiencing problems that go unnoticed...until DUN DUN DUN!

Never heard about Crashplan, but you may also consider using built-in Windows Backup engine (seems more popular on these forums). Thanks!

Also, what Veeam product edition you’re using? Enterprise edition and higher provide you with the ability to automatically verify existing backup/replication data (Surebackup), guaranteeing that no issue with backups will slip from your attention.

Thanks.
