Setting it up is intuitive, and integrating it into existing workflows with tools like rclone or backup software is seamless. Its range of features—like lifecycle rules, bucket access controls, and CLI/API support—make it powerful without being overwhelming.

While Backblaze B2 is great overall, it could improve in a few areas. The initial implementation may require more technical familiarity, especially for users not accustomed to configuring APIs or CLI tools. Customer support, while functional, lacks the immediacy or depth of larger cloud providers. Also, for users with more occasional storage needs, the platform may not be used frequently enough to fully benefit from its capabilities unless it’s part of an automated backup strategy.
