Those types of services can be sufficient. However, I would recommend an on-premise backup and use the online services as a backup for the backup. If your backup is online only, file recovery can occur only if you have an internet connection. If you have an internet connection during recovery, a large amount of data can take a long time to download as compared to disk-to-disk recovery with an on-premise solution
Hmm Its a useful suggestion so what I should use to take data at my place.Quote:

You'd have to make sure to bring the file with you, email it to yourself, or save it in a place you could get to it later. Now, there are a number of online file storage and syncing services that will make your data available on as many computers as you like. Here's a look at five of the best of those services.
1. Dropbox
2. Box.net
3. Windows Live SkyDrive
4. SugarSync
5. SpiderOak
Thanks and Regards,

the one you have onsite.
nothing beats that.
In the market various data keeping services available but according to me corbonite, backblaze, crashplan, jungledisk these are the extremly powerfull data keeping services. This provides more capabilities of storage and continously provides us backing up fascilities. And most importat thing is that as above mentioned data keeping services have different different features.
As we all know online banking is a great help in easy access to our accent but we must also remember that we have to ensure that the bank we are with is safe from any scam.
Thanks for giving best sites.
If the backup and recovery solution is for personal data (non-commercial) then all of the above options are great suggestions. If it is for a business then I'd truly recommend looking into a Business Continuity system (hybrid backup and recovery - on-site backup on a local device then off-site backup to the cloud"). Something to definitely look into for safekeeping and easily recovering your company data...
As per my suggetion below two option are better for your data storage.
1. Dropbox
2. Box.net
Yeah, I use dropbox these days to store all my data and I also back up to a physical usb memory stick just incase dropbox fails me lol. Nothing worse than losing all your work.Quote:

Dropbox has always been my fav.
Dropbox is a good option, at least it works very well for me. The only disadvantages you might find with it are the limited data storage (2GB), safety- there were some articles written that hackers were being able to steal your e-mail and pass and log in to your Dropbox, but I haven't had problems with that. I guess hackers can do anything nowadays, and the web is not really safe. And the last problem I can think about is the fact that you cannot edit the files directly in Dropbox, you have to use Word, iPages, Photoshop, or whatever you are using, and upload it afterward.
If you are not okay with the cons I mentioned a good alternative is Google Drive, you can edit there and do whatever. But I don't know how reliable is the safety.
In my opinion, the best option will be online ssd server Dropbox is a 3rd party service, which has its own advantages and disadvantages. But for business use, online hosting and storage is the best solution.
I use two copies on two services - Dropbox and Google Drive.
For me, this is a removable hard drive.
Maybe dropbox?
Best Data keeping servicer's which includes:
Google Drive,
Google Cloud Storage,
Dropbox Business,
ownCloud,
Dropbox,
Citrix ShareFile,
WeTransfer,
Tresorit,
Pcloud,
Idrive,
Icloud.
Google drive. But the 1 from Microsoft is also good.
I think that Dropbox should work, but keep in mind to have a strong password. And maybe it would be smart to have some of the backups on another online website? Or maybe even on a hard drive?
According to me Dropbox and Box.net is better. It easily backup your data.
I store my data on iCloud. Also I use Google Drive. But still I worry that something can go wrong and I miss important data, so I create the backup copies on my notebook. Usually I save my emails as pdf files (here https://emailindetail.com/ helps me a lot). It is convenient, because I can work even when I don't have access to the Internet, especially when I'm on the road.
I agree with the previous commentator that it is best to duplicate the two methods: cloud storage and local storage. This provides a good guarantee of information security.
pCloud – Best for users.
Sync – Best for legal and healthcare.
IDrive – Best for personal backups.
We use the KBPublisher service, an excellent storage and data management system.
