Yup. I like their confidence that you'll like the local backup so much, you'll opt into their cloud service. I've used them for about 6-7 years now, and I've restored files in the past.

You can even back up to other computers you own for free, or even to friends' computers (your data is encrypted to all destinations).

Crashplan doesn't do system images, but I guess you were using something else for that.

Great suggestion. I do this whenever I set up backup drives for my clients.
