Looks like 2011 is turning out to the be the year of price increases for online backup services. First was Mozy, then Carbonite and now it looks like Livedrive will be increasing their prices as well. No word on what the new prices will be but this would be a good time to sign up for Livedrive if were thinking about it before the price increase does happen.
Current prices for Livedrive backup are $6.95 / month or $66.53 / year or the package deal of backup and briefcase are $16.95 / month or $170.53 / year. Once I find out the price increase I will post about it again.
It is interesting to notice that both Carbonite and Livedrive are not raising prices for existing customers, unlike Mozy who raised prices across the board for everyone, hitting some users with huge jumps. Nice to see Carbonite and Livedrive respecting their existing customers.
