Hi everyone,

So I am looking into online backups at the moment. However a lot of them say that the subscription only includes one PC. I have a laptop and a desktop so I was wondering if there is any software that I can install on my laptop to sync the files on it to my desktop? Then I can hopefully just backup my desktop to the cloud and it will include the laptop as well.

Anybody know about this?

Thanks :)
 
Thanks for the response. Well I currently have a thread open in the networks section getting peoples opinions on online backups.

The ones on the table really at the moment are carbonite and backblaze (which I think does multiple devices but I need to look into this more). I need to have things like encryption etc.

Will synctoy do it automatically? That is what I was hoping for really.

Thanks :)
 
Not sure if it will do automatically, but you could possibly get it to run via task scheduler.
You set up the folders to sync initially then just run as required so should think that might work.
Might have a look at the two companies you mention.
I tried Crashplan but I had several upload issues in the demo period so gave up with it.
