We have absolutely seen an ROI. We found a lot of value in being able to detect the file sharing and potential exfiltration or actual exfiltration. Not everything is done maliciously. Sometimes, people just do it, but it is not done maliciously. They might embed a PowerPoint thinking they're embedding a PowerPoint pie chart in a presentation, but they're actually embedding the entire spreadsheet. We were able to detect that. 

The other thing that it has helped us with is that it showed us where we had gaps in our security policies and acceptable use policies. It showed us how to measure the effectiveness of a policy. That was pretty strong, and we really liked that.

Unfortunately I'm not in a position to give accurate information about our ROI with CrashPlan. I would need to engage several different teams to obtain the accurate numbers.

Jus the other day a Sr. executive had their hard drive crash. Another Sr. executive had their laptop stolen from their vehicle. We recovered all files and we could tell that they were all recovered because we could report the last backup timestamp and the percentage (100%).

We measure ROI in business impact and CrashPlan more than paid for itself in those two recoveries. Our previous solution could never have achieved that.

How can you quantify that, easily thousands of dollars. A lot.

This isn't a metric we calculate or track for our small business.

Hey look, I have to pad this answer to 120 characters too! Is it 1997? Perhaps it is.

I am not the person to generate exact figures, but our users find the peace of mind to be priceless when they know their work is safe if/when things do happen.

The ROI with CrashPlan is that it has made the backup process seamless and saved countless users from losing data due to system failure or migrations.

Having an enterprise backup solution in place instead of relying on odd one-off solutions, such as time machine, easily saves $20,000+ in desktop support and admin time a year.

We have saved $1000s and a whole lot of time recovering from cryptoware infections and data recovery that, with the old system, would have resulted in data loss or having to pay the ransom.

Improvements in cost, efficiency and user experience. ROI was very good, probably in multiples compared to the previous product.

I have no information on this topic.

What is our ROI? Our ROI is the peace of mind that we can restore our files if we need to do so.

We have already gotten our investment back at least once, probably twice. We have used Code42 to migrate users to new machines and rebuild existing ones that have had HDD failures. We are even backing up our 2.5TB backup server, so when the building collapses in the next earthquake, our stuff is backed up!

Our research data is essentially invaluable, which means that it's both hard to quantify the value, and easy to justify most expenses to protect it.

ROI was immediate since we didn't have any way to monitor remote users backups. was able to recover accidentally deleted files within the first week. The files would have taken days to recreate at a significant man hour expenditure.

The amount of time spent on recreating data from a lost/stolen or crashed drive is the best piece. Also, with having an electronic solution for a legal hold, we no longer need to pull and store drives for legal reasons.

It gives us piece of mind and security. I call it an insurance policy. So as far as true ROI it is hard to calculate. All it will take is one major file getting deleted or drive failure and bingo it has paid for itself.

Code42 Crashplan has saved us large amounts of time and money. The time spent by technicians supporting users through some over-complex interface has dropped dramatically. Support requested for restores are almost never needed due to ease of use.

The ROI will be realized when the legal team needs data and we are able to easily get it for them.

Cannot fully speak to the ROI at this point. We will know more at 180 days.We estimate the cost of the software will save us 3 hours per file restore in lost work.

We are a small organization. We have two campuses about a mile from each other. We implemented one campus and then moved to the other. We encountered no issues adding servers and administrator computers to the organizations presence on CrashPlan's servers.

We do not measure this so it's difficult to say, however, we have dealt with ransomware and fully recovered our data without paying it, so there's definitely an ROI to be had.

This is a strange question. This software is much less expensive than all others that I considered. Because we are using Crashplan, I have been able to restore data that would have cost a fortune to recreate.

Almost instant. Crash plan had the same annual cost as our Retrospect system and we were able to use existing hardware and storage. Once the deployment was done we had immediate time savings and reliability improvements.

The ROI is priceless. Having the ability to restore data with very little downtime is hard to put a price tag on.

The ROI is priceless. Having the ability to restore data with very little downtime is hard to put a pricetag on. Knowing that a users data can be backed up to or restored from the cloud from anywhere there is an internet connection.

I am not sure exactly what my ROI is. I think that the cost of this product is very affordable. It is a very inexpensive solution to what we needed.

ROI is easily measured with the first person that was able to do file restores that would have otherwise lost their files. The cost to lost files is virtually priceless. While nobody knows the value of the files that they have, we do know that they do not have to recreate any of them or dig any up from backups on tape if there were any to begin with.

So far we've saved a lot of data and prevented loss for some clients that either had their devices stolen or the hard drive had failed.

It's a great product that does exactly what we want and need, plus more. It's a substantial upgrade from any other backup solution we have used in the past.

No data lost to ransomware in 4 years. Can't put a price on that. Got hit with CryptoTesla on a business office share two weeks ago - 3 clicks and 20 minutes later, no data lost.

So far, for the investment made, we have saved the company tens of thousands of dollars from ransomware and human error.

Not sure how to measure this really. We save $6000 per year over what we used to use for our backup solution. With CrashPlan, we don't have any onsite equipment to maintain other than the virtual box we use as the main login server.

Data is hard to value, but every time you restore a file, or a whole computer, you understand how it is important to do computer backups.

i am the administrator , basically i do everything from installation , set up , troubleshooting and sometimes we do some reports , also crashplan can do reports to excel from the console and that really helps a lot . i manage the space left , disk quota pretty much everything.

With a simple server and storage, a good bandwidth and not so much time to spend on maintenance we have a very good ROI!

Unknown. 

The largest return on investment that we see is peace of mind from our users knowing that all of their information is safe if something were to happen.

I have no idea.
