Your risk is spread across laptops, SaaS accounts, and whatever cloud infra you run, so you buy in layers. Here's what I'd actually name, in order.\n\n## Laptops / endpoints (start here - this is the real gap)\n\n1. **Backblaze Business Backup** - cheapest credible option and the one I'd default to under ~25 machines. ~$99/computer/year, unlimited data, Mac + Windows, with a central admin console and SSO. Weakness: base version history is limited (~1 year), and no Linux client. ([Backblaze vs CrashPlan comparison](https://www.stackscored.com/pricing/backup-tools/compare/))\n2. **CrashPlan Essential/Professional** (~$8-10/device/month) - pick this over Backblaze if you need indefinite version history and deleted-file retention, which is what actually saves you in a ransomware or \"intern deleted the folder in March\" scenario. Similar total cost at 10 seats, better retention and policy depth.
