Since I can't use Carbonite to back up my OS Lion systems, I needed an alternative. A quick Google search revealed the two main contenders with unlimited plans were Backblaze and Crashplan. Mozy does not offer an unlimited plan otherwise I'd still be using them.
I've previously mentioned that my Mozy subscription was up for renewal but when I went to pay the fee, there was no more unlimited option. Carbonite seemed like the logical answer and so I signed up with them only to discover, after upgrading to OS X Lion, their service would no longer work :(
Carbonite is still working on a solution for OS X Lion and were kind enough to offer me a refund.
I found this review at Gigaom quite informative.
All the services mentioned offer a free trial so give them a go. I'm trying Crashplan because they offer a cost effective multi computer option which also allows backing up between machines.
