I'd like to try the service out, but before setting up another account, is there anyone who can compare it with Dropbox? Personally I'd like the 15GB plans (if I don't back up my photos), more than enough for my code, .ai, .pdf and .tex files, but the lack of snapshots (from the front page I understand that I can't go back in time without snapshots) in the cheap plan stops me.

I know that with a local version control repository I can get my files back from the past anyway, but in that case I don't see why I should switch from my free Dropbox account (currently I have 8GB of free storage, and I'm using 1.5 of them).

Any hint would be much appreciated.

Edit: help

The cheap plan actually does support snapshots. It might not forever - but if you sign up now it will.

Thanks. Will it support snapshot forever if subscribe now, or only up to a certain moment? BTW why is it not stated in the homepage?

Rolling out a new design - it will stay supported!

This is super cool. Lightweight, off-site Time Machine-style snapshotted backups.

I have been using the beta and it really works well. rsync backup could not be easier than this!

I've been using this for a while now and it's absolutely brilliant.

i first loved StrongSpace for the ability to programatically back things up.

now i love it for the automated snapshots.

who needs carbonite or mozy? this is backup done right for geeks

this is awesome! I really hope this hits the fpage.
