Currently I neither use Backblaze or CrashPlan but restore was one of the few features (among other features like CP’s excellent versioning) where CP beat BB hands down. Heck, the last time I checked BB didn’t even let you restore using the client. You had to download the files from the portal and then put it somewhere yourself. I am not sure it has changed now. While CP’s was so seamless that it would just restore your files in the background wherever you wanted - at their original location or elsewhere. It worked so well.

Yes, BB Java app was (is?) indeed a POS.
