If your bandwidth is challenged, or you simply prefer keeping it off the grid, this Iron Mountain–like feature is just what the doctor ordered. One of our favorite idrive features is the continuous data protection (CDP). If you have a rapidly changing data set, it’s nice to have files backed up when they are changed, not just on a schedule. idrive also supports nearly every type of PC and device: Windows, OS X, Android, IOS, various NAS boxes, and as we said, even Windows Phone. Also nice are the snapshots, which make it easy to restore your PC to a particular point in time.
The idrive local client is nearly identical to idrive’s online dashboard, so you can change settings, including turning on and off CDP
