I've been using Crashplan+ for a number of years now, on the family plan, unlimited data and unlimited computers, and have seen no data losses.

Every month or so I just pull down a bunch of data from one of the back-ups and see if it is okay.

What you don't get with Crashplan is an "image" backup, you have to re-create any failed system and then restore the data. No problem if you are used to doing it - 9-track tape and keying in boot sequences and device drivers on the console FTW!
