So what’s new in Backblaze 7.0? expand full storyīackblaze is today launching version 4.0 of its Mac backup app, potentially allowing file uploads to happen five times faster. All clients will update over the next two weeks, or you can download by clicking on the Backblaze icon in the Menu Bar and check for updates. Today, Backblaze for Mac 7.0 is being released. It’s fast, lightweight, and is 100% native to macOS. One of the things that makes Backblaze such an excellent backup service on macOS is how much care they put into their app. I logged in to the online portal, downloaded the PowerPoint, and was up and running. Thankfully, Backblaze was working, though.
I am not blaming Apple here because I was running a beta OS, and I knew I had some wonky things going on. I didn’t realize that iCloud Drive hadn’t uploaded the document, though. I had been having issues with one of my laptops (due to macOS Catalina), so I decided to reformat the drive and set up from scratch. Just last week, it saved me from re-creating a presentation I worked on for three hours. I’ve used Backblaze for many years as my go-to backup service on macOS.
