The backup industry has quietly trained everyone to accept three things: your history expires, your backups die with your machines, and restoring is somebody's support ticket. We reject all three. Here is exactly where we differ, and from whom.
OneDrive, Google Drive, Dropbox. When ransomware encrypts your files, sync does its job perfectly: it uploads the encrypted garbage everywhere, fast. Version history helps until you learn it is capped, per file, and restoring ten thousand files one by one is nobody's plan. Sync spreads your files. It does not protect them.
Most backup products keep 30 days. Some keep 90. At least one major one sells "keep my own files longer" as a paid add-on. Think about that: you pay them to store your data, then pay again so they will not throw it away. We keep every daily copy for as long as you are a customer. Included. Because deleting your history should not be a business model.
External drives and NAS boxes sit on the same network with the same passwords. Ransomware operators find them first, on purpose. Most cloud backup agents hold credentials that can wipe their own history. Our Vault copies are written once and sealed at the storage layer. The machine that made them can read them and restore from them, but it cannot change them. Neither can anything running on it.
The serious ransomware-resistant products exist. They are sold per socket, configured in consoles with forty screens, and installed by consultants. If you have an IT team, they are fine. If you are a 20-person company, you are not their customer. You are ours.
Proprietary formats mean the day you stop paying, your history is theirs, not yours. EverBack stores your data in an established open-source format, encrypted with a key only you hold. With that key, a competent engineer can restore everything without us. We think you should stay because it works, not because you are trapped.
| Sync services | Classic backup | EverBack | |

| Survives ransomware on your machines | No. It syncs the damage | Usually deletable by the agent | Vault copies are sealed |
| Setup | Easy | Consoles and consultants | Three clicks |
| Who restores you after an incident | You, file by file | A ticket queue | One button, and an engineer on the phone |
| Can the vendor read your files | Yes | Sometimes | No. Key never leaves your machine |
| Leaves with your data if you quit | Downloads, then history is gone | Proprietary format | Open format, restorable without us |
Every daily copy kept for as long as you are a customer. Included, not an add-on.
Nightly copies sealed at the storage layer. Ransomware with total control of your machines can read them, but it cannot change them.
Download, open, choose what to protect. Enterprise-grade resilience without a console, a consultant, or a manual.
Encrypted on your machine before upload, in an open format. Private from us, portable without us. Both, at the same time.
Buying a new computer used to mean an afternoon of copying, forgetting, and "where did my desktop go." With EverBack: install it, sign in, press restore. Your files and folders arrive exactly where they were. The old machine can go in a drawer. Migration is just a restore.
You cleaned up a folder in November. In March, the accountant asks for it. Pick a day in October. It is there.
Machines are replaceable the moment their contents are. Any computer, restored onto any other computer, from any day.
The one you bought us for. Every machine encrypted, attackers holding the keys. Your Vault copies never met the attackers. One button, and the business is back.
Three clicks to set up. The first backup starts immediately, and the first Vault copy is sealed at midnight.
