Feature parity 20%

This free tier is a small but real starter offering: it includes one backup job, 1 GB of storage, daily backups, email alerts, and encryption. Compared with the $49 Lite plan, it has roughly 20% of the core capacity, so a buyer would value it at about $10/month. The page also says no credit card is required, and the free offer is capped rather than unlimited.
