IDrive Online Backup

Unreliable!
This place is simply unreliable. It cannot be trusted. It suddenly stops performing daily, scheduled backups. No notice, no error messages, no nothing. This has happened on multiple occasions before, most recently on exactly November 1, 2022 when it failed to back up, and never since. I only noticed because after a few days I realized I was not receiving the successful backup emails. I have gone in circles with their tech support. No explanation. Today they told me to update the pc app (a very minor update) and now it will not even let me log into my account. Further, they said I would have to "reschedule" the backups. This place is NOT reliable and too flaky to trust with something as important as backups. Update 26 July 2023: I had contacted their technical support a number of times and followed their instructions. The backup would work for a day or two and then stop. Sometimes I would get a "Failed" email, most of the time not. Customers who would forget to check would miss NOT having their backups made. BUT ... there's more. Two days ago I received an email that their free backup service which had a very modest amount of space is being DISCONTINUED. Only paid subscriptions. No loss for me as I had given up on them. Still Unreliable!
