Data is analyzed and de-duplicated so that only changes are backed up, saving on bandwidth and storage.
Versions are retained so that you can restore prior versions of backed up files.
Files deleted from your device are never removed from your backup (using the default version settings).
You can back up an unlimited amount of data.
Web restore enables you to download files anywhere to any device with an internet connection.

File protection	Files are encrypted and not shared.	Files are synced across devices and available for sharing. Files intended for sharing typically aren't encrypted (varies by service).
Data visibility
Keeping track of a file after it is moved from an EFSS service to an endpoint is next to impossible.
File management	All of your personal files are automatically backed up.	You need to manually upload a selection of your files.
Redundancy	Files are backed up for the purpose of creating redundancy in case one version is lost or corrupted.	Files are synced across devices. If a version is deleted or corrupted on one device, all devices syncing with it are also impacted.
Data storage and compliance	Choose where your data is stored, making compliance with data regulations easier to manage.	Data is typically stored locally, but ultimately leverages a central data repository in a separate location. This means that data may, at some point, be transmitted outside the region or country, violating data residency regulations.
