Although it took a few minutes to install, the process was simple and went smoothly. One nice feature we discovered was that when Mozy discovered that our computer had more data than was included in our Mozy plan, it presented a checklist of files so that we could choose which should be backed up. This was a big improvement over other backup services which simply uploaded the first files they came too.

Once the backup began we were given the warning that the initial backup could take a long time but that we could continue using the computer for other things in the meantime.

Once the backup was complete, a control panel popped up where we could change our backup schedule, including adding all sorts of filters such as "Don't back up if CPU is x% busy" or "Enable bandwidth throttle between these hours:" This remained accessible through the Mozy icon in our windows system tray. Other account information, such as recent backups and restore history, are available through your account on the Mozy website. 

Security

All file transfers to or from Mozy are protected with a 256bit AES encryption.  The data is then stored in multiple data centers that are either SAS70 or ISO certified.
