Features

Everything you need. Nothing you'll have to configure twice.

Crate Harbor combines backup and file sync into one simple service, so your team's work is always available and always recoverable.

Sync

Your files, on every device

Edit a file at the office and it is waiting for you at home. Crate Harbor only uploads the parts of a file that changed, so even large files sync quickly.

  • Windows and macOS desktop apps
  • Selective sync to save disk space
  • Shared team folders with live updates
  • Works offline and catches up when you reconnect
Files syncing between devices
Recovery

Undo almost anything

Every change is saved as a version. Restore a single file, a whole folder or an entire computer to how it looked on any day within your retention window.

  • 30, 90 or 365 days of version history
  • Recover deleted files and folders
  • Full-device restore for new or replaced computers
  • Protection against accidental bulk changes

Security

Private by design

Files are encrypted on your device before they leave it, travel over TLS, and are stored encrypted at rest. You decide which region your data lives in.

  • AES-256 encryption at rest, TLS 1.3 in transit
  • Choice of EU or US data region
  • Two-step verification for every account
  • Detailed activity log for admins

Admin

Simple controls for the person in charge

Whoever looks after IT — even if that is also the office manager — gets a clear dashboard to add people, set permissions and see backup health at a glance.

  • Roles: admin, editor and viewer
  • Remove access instantly when someone leaves
  • Weekly backup health email
  • Storage usage by person and folder

The small things that add up

Bandwidth friendly

Smart throttling keeps backups from slowing down video calls or the office connection.

Scheduled backups

Prefer backups after hours? Set a schedule per device or let it run continuously.

Share links

Send a file to a client with an expiring, optionally password-protected link.

Backup reports

Simple reports show what is protected and flag any device that has gone quiet.

Ransomware rollback

If files are mass-encrypted or renamed, restore everything to a point before it happened.

Email alerts

Get notified if a device misses its backup for more than a couple of days.

Put your files somewhere safe.
