Hello,
Thank you for being a CrashPlan® for Home customer. We're honored that you’ve trusted us to protect your data.
It's because of this trust that we want you to know that we have shifted our business strategy to focus on the enterprise and small business segments. This means that over the next 14 months we will be exiting the consumer market and you must choose another option for data backup before your subscription expires. We are committed to providing you with an easy and efficient transition.
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN TO YOU
We will honor your existing CrashPlan for Home subscription, keeping your data safe, as always, until your current subscription expires.
To allow you time to transition to a new backup solution, we've extended your subscription (at no cost to you) by 60 days. Your new subscription expiration date is 10/22/2017.
YOUR CHOICES
Your first step is to consider the options below, available exclusively for CrashPlan for Home customers. Once you make your selection, no further action is required until your new expiration date. We will send you reminders well before your CrashPlan for Home subscription ends.

You’ll need to take action to preserve these archives prior to converting to CrashPlan for Small Business. You can migrate your cloud backups up to 5 TB per device. Some restrictions may apply.

Lite trist tycker jag.
CrashPlan for Small Businesses är dubbla priset ($10/månad) mot vad jag betalat innan (när rabatterna försvinner).
Carbonite har max filstorlek 4GB samt ingen Linux-klient så det faller bort för mig.
Kan i och för sig skaffa Google Gsuite for business men det kostar €8 / månad / användare. och kräver minst 5 användare för att få unlimited storage.
Kanske lägger filerna på Sia-nätverket istället alternativt bygger en egen lösning.
