I've used JungleDisk, CrashPlan, and now Arq.

I left JungleDisk because it went sideways and S3 was too expensive. After that was CrashPlan; I liked its free remote backup option. But then my backup destination disappeared behind carrier grade NAT. That left me with paying for regular CrashPlan or looking elsewhere. Enter Arq.

Based on my estimated usage, for two computers, I calculated the following estimated yearly cost.

   JungleDisk S3 $288
   CrashPlan     $120
   Arq Glacier   $ 32

Assuming I didn't screw up my estimate, Glacier was a no-brainer, even with up-front cost of two Arq licenses ($70).

This month is the first full month in which I'm not seeding my initial Arq backup to Glacier. I'm hopeful that the cost will be significantly lower than CrashPlan.
