Fantastic savings for commitment-phobes
IPVanish |1 month | $4.99Don’t like the idea of paying a whack of cash upfront for software you may end up not even using? Yes, Express and Nord have quibble-free money back guarantees, but IPVanish makes its one month plan cheaper than all the competition. Use it for a month and only part with $5.
The best cheap VPN of them all
Surfshark |2 years |$11.95$2.49 per month | 81% offOK, so Surfshark hasn’t got a promotion on as such. But it still sits at the top of ourcheap VPNlist, so we still thought it was worth mentioning! For a solitary payment of less than $60 will give you 24 months of outstanding VPN service - it has loads of features and excellent, speedy chat support.
What is Backblaze cloud backup?
ExpressVPN already ranks as TechRadar’sbest VPNprovider, but Backblaze has won plaudits for its transparent backup system and its well-received hard disk drive diary, too. It is also the only major cloud backup company to offer unlimited cloud backups with no-strings attached, great forstoring your photos onlineand everything else.
Backblaze - which claims to be the world’s easiest cloud backup solution - competes with the likes ofiDrive,DropboxandCarboniteas well asOneDriveandGoogle Driveand should primarily be considered as acloud backupsolution.
Other than unlimited storage, Backblaze will backup all your attached external drives and offers fast backup speed with no limits on file size or the number of files. Something worth mentioning is that Backblaze keeps old file versions and deleted files for 30 days, something you can bump up for an extra $2 per month.
It is also one of the very few to offer the ability to sendexternal hard drives- up to 8TB - via snail mail for a fee. Just send it back within 30 days and you’ll get a refund.
