My only real criticism with Code42, is that in the last year they have not focused sufficiently on the development of CrashPlan. Whether using the on-prem or off-prem option, CrashPlan provides security and stability for your company's critical data. Granted that backup is not an overly complicated process, but CrashPlan has refined the process better than the competition. Virtually no training is required for both end-users and administrators. CrashPlan's interface is simple and easy to use. CrashPlan is equally useful for file recovery or simply moving a user to a new computer.Ĭlient backup products are not always without impact to end-point performance. Systems fail, users delete data, users switch computers and things still go wrong and make backups a necessity. The idea behind the program is amazing, I just wish the execution and support was more clear and helpful.Ĭode42 has done a fantastic job creating a solid enterprise product that is easy to use, transparent to the end-users, and backed by a company that takes an active interest in the input of their customers.Įven with the trend of moving data to the cloud, end-point backup remains a critical necessity in the modern end-user computing environment.
#Crashplan 42 windows#
However present day their website still says it supports windows servers. My two attempts at contacting support about the issue resulted in almost a 1 week wait time between calls/emails and the answer I ended up receiving was that they would no longer be supporting servers with the Crash Plan application.
On windows server 2012, the same issue happens, whether Crash Plan is installed for every user, or just my admin account, the instantaneous system slow down is there to where everyone on the system is effected. Within the past year however, on a 16GB memory system, as soon as crash plan begins to backup my memory usage jumps from about 15% to over 50% until I stop the program completely.
In the past I have been able to run constant backups incrementally at 15 minute intervals without much slow down of my systems. This software, even though it does fantastic things, is an absolute resource hog. My major issues come down to resource usage and customer support.
