How we rate the products
Each of the backup products on test this month is awarded a star rating out of five. In determining this score, we start by fully exploring the user interface and features: we’re looking for a client that’s easy to use and offers a good range of useful configuration options.
Next, we test the speed of each product. For details of how we do this, and the results, see p91.
Finally, we consider value for money, in light of each product’s features and performance, and how much cloud storage is included in the price. All of these considerations are factored into the overall score.
