Backblaze B2 Cloud Storage VS Mountain Duck

Backblaze B2 Cloud Storage Reviews

   CEO at SnapShooter Backups | over 2 years ago
   The best affordable S3 storage out there

   At SnapShooter we are no stranger to data. Our customers love using B2 for storing their backups, we love storing our backups there too.

   The API works perfectly conforming highly with the AWS S3 API. Making integration a breeze.

   If you measure for just data B2 comes out clearly on the top with SnapShooter customers for backup storage, things like MySQL Backups, File backups and database backups.

   My only comment that is negative is sometimes uploading can be a little slow.

   🏁 Competitors: Amazon S3, DigitalOcean Spaces, Wasabi

   👍 Pros:    Great value for the money

   👎 Cons:    Could be slow

   Works well in general, many supported cloud services

   It's able to mount a cloud / network services as a drive and works seamlessly with your operating system. Found it a bit slow compared to the native software for a cloud service like Google Drive File Stream. Also include native support for Cryptomator encrypted volumes.

   🏁 Competitors: Drive File Stream by Google, Rclone

   👍 Pros:    Offline|End to end encrypted|Encryption|Smart synchronization (cache)

   👎 Cons:    Slow|A little buggy

• Ask HN: Is iCloud a viable alternative to Dropbox? Any other alternatives?

• RcloneBrowser: Simple cross platform GUI for rclone

  I've had a good experience with CyberDuck too. Recently I learned they also have MountainDuck for mounting remote storage: https://mountainduck.io/ I'm still excited to learn more about Rclone since it looks like a great way to sync the data across different cloud provider. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Recommendation for file-streaming (folder sync) for Unraid?

  Edit: The more I try to Google this, the more it seems like it's more of a Mac software question than it's something I could easily enable by way of a docker-hosted solution. Something like Mountain Duck might do the trick. But I'll hold out a bit to see if anyone has a suggestion before I buy one of their $50 licenses. Source: 8 months ago

• Backblaze Product and Pricing Updates

  Not open source, but I had my work buy me a license for: https://mountainduck.io/ and I quite like it. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Best secure and encrypted cloud service?

  For a secure cloud storage setup, I use Cryptomator, accessible at https://cryptomator.org/, on my Android device, and Mountain Duck, available at https://mountainduck.io/, on my desktop. This configuration enables me to choose my own storage provider on a pay-as-you-go basis. My preferred storage provider is S3, mainly because it facilitates easy backup of cloud files on my NAS or via tools such as WinSCP, which... Source: 11 months ago
