Best CRASHPLAN alternatives TESTED 2017 (Veeam, Urbackup, Macrium)
Crashplan has announced they will discontinue their home product in October 2018. We both use Crashplan currently, so needed to find the best totally free (non-cloud based) alternatives.
Macrium reflect free: https://goo.gl/oWZex5
Veeam agent for windows: https://goo.gl/28Qjxu
Urbackup: https://goo.gl/bZ82fh
Our conclusion is that if you run a NAS drive and don't want to run a server PC, Veeam is clean, simple and works well. If you run a server and want something a bit more flexible, Urbackup is a great contender.
