Online Backup Cost

[siphongwenya]

Good Day,

We're paying about R3500 for 20GB online backup storage. It sounds expensive to me.

What do other pay for about the same storage space.

Thanks

You would pay R6.79 per month storing 20GB in S3 in the Ireland region..

Please tell me you meant 20TB?

Otherwise I’ve got 20GB to sell you for a bargain on R1000 a month.

Or 100GB for what you pay now.

Even Google Drive and OneDrive is an option for you.

Depends on the needs. Does the data need to be within compliance with GDPR or made ready in advance for POPI? Does your current backup plan (or service) include a managed layer of service?

Generally, the price for an acceptable backup product should be around ~R5 per GB which is ignoring bulk volume. For a premium backup service within South Africa, you should pay no more than R310 per month for 20 GB. This is without a managed layer.

Lol for that price you can get a lifetime Pcloud 500gb for R2500 once off... https://www.pcloud.com/cloud-storage-pricing-plans.html

That looks like Irontree but according to that you should only be paying R310 per month. There are of course cheaper options but there's a good reason why Irontree is sitting at that price point. You can PM me I'm an Irontree reseller and can find out why you are paying so much.
