@BRRABill I've only used the home version for $5/month per computer. This page has info on the business version:
https://www.backblaze.com/business.htmlI know I'm really late to this - but you pay $5/month ($60/yr) and their business plan for unlimited workstation backup is less, at $50/yr? are you going to switch?
Business plan has a minimum 5 seat order.
Unless they've changed that recently. -

Unless they've changed that recently.OK, sadly on BB's side, they don't say that on the page.

@JaredBusch Thanks! I don't know why I didn't think about the mklink aspect. I have also searched for ways around this for quite some time.

Unless they've changed that recently.That's still a great price, even if it hasn't changed from a 5 order minimum.

Anyone know if the mklink requires a user be logged in on that system?

It does as far as I know, because my CrashPlan Pro at one location fails to see the NAS folder on C:\Backup after the PC reboots until I log in.
Never looked for a way around it.

@JaredBusch Hmm. I was thinking of incorporating this method into a filemaker server DB backup, as it requires you to backup to a "local" drive for some strange reason but maybe I will continue creating a copy script to put it on my NAS.

Can you make the CrashPlan service log in with your credentials?
That's what I had to do when I was using EFS. (Though I believe it now supports it if installed as each user without doing the logon as service route.)

Yeah, you can do that. Just modify the service to log on as whatever user you need it to log on as. IIRC, though, they don't officially support this.
