Datto Endpoint Backup for Windows vs Jottacloud

Datto Endpoint Backup for Windows backs up and restores Windows PCs, servers, virtual machines, and cloud instances directly to Datto Cloud, without an appliance. Policies let administrators choose data, schedule backups from once every hour to once every 24 hours, set retention periods of 90 days, 1 year, 3 years, or 7 years, and manage bandwidth. Recovery includes files and folders, file versions restored elsewhere or downloaded directly, and bare metal restores to the same or different hardware. A unified portal provides alerts and visibility into backup status, history, storage use, and policy settings for Windows and Mac endpoints. Backups are encrypted in transit and at rest, with optional customer-managed keys; listed protections also include forced MFA, KaseyaOne single sign-on, and immutable cloud storage. The product integrates with Autotask PSA, Datto RMM, Kaseya VSA, IT Glue, and Compliance Manager GRC. Supported systems include Windows 10 and 11, Windows Server 2012 R2 through 2025, and macOS, though Windows 10/11 Enterprise multi-session is incompatible. Pricing is on request, based on storage used, and there is no free plan.

Jottacloud is a cloud storage and backup service that automatically uploads files from devices. The free plan provides 5 GB for one user and backs up all devices. It supports Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android, and file versioning lets users restore older versions. Uploaded files retain their original quality without compression. Data is stored in Norway under Norwegian and European privacy laws; business data sent to or from the service uses 256-bit AES encryption. Business plans accommodate two to unlimited users and allow sharing files of any size. The service also offers AI photo search that locates photos using descriptions and Microsoft Office Online integration for collaborative editing. Jottacloud has provided cloud storage since 2008 and is based in Oslo, Norway. The Unlimited plan costs $12.99 a month, billed annually at USD 129.90/year, for one user; upload speed is gradually reduced after 5 TB. A 1 TB Home plan for five users costs $7.99 a month, billed annually at USD 79.90/year, with no bandwidth limitation.
