pCloud for cloud data management

Kommentare: Till now we have the best experience with pCloud as it is managing our company data very efficiently and maintaining the confidentiality.

Vorteile:

Large files can also be uploaded to pcloud, also we can open multimedia files in pcloud as pcloud have inbuilt multimedia players.

Nachteile:

Speed to data transfer, upload, download and access is some what slow if we compare it with its competitors.

Impressive storage and backup!

Kommentare: I had a great experience the first year on their monthly/annual plan, I like it so much I purchased the Lifetime deal and have zero regrets.

Vorteile:

Pcloud is super easy to use and set up. It is very economical if you want a monthly or annual subscription. However, they also offer a one-time lifetime deal at the time of this review. Which basically pays for itself in the first year of use.

Nachteile:

I had an error of the drive on my machine but customer service trouble shot my issue and resolved it pretty fast and easy.

Easy to use, quite easy to configure, great to use on several systems.

Kommentare: Having tried several cloud systems before for uploading my stuff, I found pCloud very easy and comfortable to use and will use it for the time to come or until it folds - which I hope, never happens. By the way, I am a free user, having granted the 50 GB during an introduction campaign of the service, I also like the social media backup feature. With Facebook, for instance, I was able to immediately connect it to pCloud without any issues and is backing up some or all of my albums rather smoothly. It even kept the folder structure intact by categorizing all my Facebook images in their respective directories, PCloud is a cloud storage program for all those who are looking for a comprehensive storing solution. The easy-to-use interface provides the user with all the brilliant multi-tasking features for business as well as personal use. PCloud headquarters are in Switzerland, and the advance thinking team of pCloud will provide best solutions according to the growing market, All in all, free cloud storage can certainly benefit the casual user. Those who need to store large files and perform serious backups should consider the paid route.

Vorteile:

Option to enable automatic photo/video uploads from the mobile app, Available for Windows, Mac, and Linux and Free!Up to 20 GB of free storage, Can search through all your files from the website and mobile app, Easy to use, just does not do the job. Concept and format are good, operationally flat out bad. Look elsewhere, Option to enable automatic photo/video uploads from the mobile app.

Nachteile:

Limited support options, Encryption costs extra, The synchronization can be very slow on the computer and it happened that my PC froze because of the sync, Can not password protect shared files/folders, RANDOM Speeds on download, Hard to sometimes get hold of Customer Services on the phone but they respond to emails straight away.

Great Dropbox and Gdrive contender

Kommentare: I've been using pCloud extensively for the past 4 years and it's been a great journey seeing all the improvements they make (like adding Crypto Folder and Backup possibilities).

Vorteile:

My most favourite feature is the pCloud Drive. It's a virtual drive which lets you work on your PC without taking hard drive space

Nachteile:

On desktop I'm missing some video speed controls like 0.75x, 1.25x and 1.75x. But luckily Video Speed Controller chrome extension is helping there. On mobile it's even less video options.

A good security and storage application

Kommentare: It is a good solution, we tried it. Really work on security but had some issues.

Vorteile:

This solution has great sync capabilities, we like their public link sharing, it is very secure allowing to encrypt files. We loved their UI because it looks very clean and is easy to use.

Nachteile:

One of the issues with this solution is that sometimes it runs slow, in another times uploading of big files fails completely, and we did not like the fact we need to pay extra fr encryption.

Replaces other cloud storages

Kommentare: We've moved from other cloud storages to pCloud, even for personal use , especially with that one off payment , it made sense to switch.

Vorteile:

Fully encrypted data. pricing is fair. (for personal its actually one-time payment which is really attractive deal too) for teams, you can create different access levels (business pcloud) i think the backup is up to 180 days now, (personally only needed a backup that was 30 days old)

Nachteile:

business plans could use a lower tier for lower prices..

Great for simple storage, but you'll have to pay extra for encryption

Kommentare: The overall experience so far has been fair. We did face some issues in the beginning but the customer support is good and prompt.

Vorteile:

The storage space is ample for our use (2 TB) and it gives an option to backup 1 other cloud drive (like Google or Dropbox)

Nachteile:

Would have loved it if we could backup or even better if we could sync other cloud storages with pCloud. Another con is that if you need high encryption, you'll have to pay extra

An affordable Cloud storage!

Vorteile:

pcloud gives me more storage than google drive and onedrive, I can sync my files from my computer to cloud storage as well as download as many as I want as well as share files between my friends and family. It allows Invite users to shared folders without having to use their usage.

Nachteile:

The file download is slow sometimes. It is only the downside i have found so far.

Great and affordable cloud storage

Kommentare: As a user and customer of Pcloud Business I can say personally that I will stay and remain a customer and user of it along with recommend this platform for all your business cloud storage, file sharing/management, and file recovery business needs. especially if you want an affordable user friendly option.

Vorteile:

I like how Pcloud Business looks to the eye as a user. I like how easy I is to upload files, share files, and I love that you're u can recover them easily. I like how easy it is to use and I love that is is an affordable service as compared to other softwares that are way more expensive but offer similar services.

Nachteile:

Honestly there wasn't anything I really had an issue with or dislike with this software or company.

The cloud storage paradise I always dreamed of!

Kommentare: The security and privacy it provides are aspects that stand out in a special way. End-to-end encryption ensures that my data is always protected, giving me peace of mind and absolute confidence in the integrity of my business information.

Vorteile:

I cannot contain my excitement as I talk about how much this service has impressed me. I must say that what I liked the most about this platform is its unlimited cloud storage capacity. I had never before found a cloud solution that allowed me to have so many files, documents and resources at my disposal. I can say without a doubt that my productivity has skyrocketed to new levels.

Nachteile:

If I have to point something out, it would be great to have some additional advanced features. I understand that this platform is focused on offering a seamless cloud storage and collaboration experience, but if there were some additional features for data analysis or integration with other business tools, that would be absolute perfection.

Improve the efficiency of my work team

Kommentare: I really like the ability to store, sync, and collaborate on my business files with ease, no matter where I am or what device I'm using at the time.

Vorteile:

With 1TB of storage per user on the Business account and the option of unlimited storage with pCloud Business Pro, I now have one place to store, sync and collaborate on my business files with my colleagues in real time.

Nachteile:

The integration with other applications could be a bit simpler, but it should be noted that this is only a small inconvenience compared to what this fabulous platform offers.

Very good online file storage and backup software.

Kommentare: Perfect overalls,I m satisfied with the service of pcloud business. My files are secure.

Vorteile:

I like using pcloud business because I manage to save my Heavy documents online without risk of losing them. Very easy to use and accessible to all.

Nachteile:

There is a synchronization problem and the connection to the platform takes longer than. Wich make the software less pleasant. Otherwise very good software.

best in the Cloud

Kommentare: we used to use copy.com by Baricudda until they stopped developing it and our remote workflow became dependant on being able to upload files and send download links. When we tried to find an affordable solution with the same functionality pCloud was the only real option. The more we have used it the more it has proven itself to be the clear leader in cloud storage. The amount of functionality and the rock-solid performance with a lifetime subscription has made me stop even looking at what else is available. They also offer encryption.

Vorteile:

The most important bit for me using pCloud is the ability to email direct download links to files or folders of files. The next favorite feature for me is the ease of navigating the pCloud web app. I can be anywhere and as long as I have my phone with me I can easily dig up a file and email a link to clients or printers. Another selling point for me is being able to drag and drop from my desktop to the web portal directory for uploads. Everything with pCloud has worked as intended from day one. We use it every day and it is an integral part of our office. I also love the stats. You can see the traffic on your links. You send a link to a file and you know if they downloaded the file. Great. Also, they have recently added the ability to brand your download links with your logo - fantastic.

Nachteile:

My main "con" with pCloud would take a lot to fix. I would love it if you could drag and drop to move files within the directories in the web portal but that would be a huge undertaking and is not worth the effort. For a long while the desktop app crashed anytime we tried to connect (Windows 10) but it was eventually updated and has been working solidly again, though we are more wary of it now and do not rely on it as much.

pCloud - one cloud sollution that have something extra

Kommentare: 1st rule of backup - to have a 3 copy on diferent medias and in different palces.
Until recent that wasn't a problem (DVD, USB sticks, portable HDs) but today we are bombarded with digital products, medias and contents.
For example, new AAA games have usually more than 20 Gb. Smartphone camera can shoot a photo of 2+ Mb or 1080p video without any problem, and next generations of smartphones push this boundaries more forward. Digital creators give freely most of their work and every year quantities/quality is also moving forward. Internet speed is also moving forward making more material downloadable and so on.
Question is: where You can make a backup of so much data? Cheap DVDs - too small but sometimes usefull, BlueRay Disc - slightly too expensive, USB - sometimes they stop working, portable HDs - perfect but expensive, have tendencies to multiply. Other problem is where to store them? People usually store them all in same drawer or closet. And that is also a problem.
So what backup mix can be used? I personaly prefer DVD - cloud - cloud.
Looking for some cloud with so needed space I arrived to pCloud.
There are different subsription plans:
- free with 20 Gb (that is nice start) but sometimes there are promotions so You can start with 50 Gb (nicer),
- premium with 500 Gb (we are geting serious)
- premium plus with 2 Tb (that is very serious).
I would sugest to take full year plan as it's ussually 20 % cheaper than monthly. In business version there are some interesting features. Most interesting to me are:
- posibility to create diferent teams in same company but with different permisions so that data are not muliplies with several foldres for several users.
- multilayered date-related backup so it's possible to rool back a file version from some time ago that was overwriten or lost,
- activity log for all files,
- team instant messaging. Work with pCloud, until now, was perfect, no flaws and I can suggest this cloud service to other possible users.

Vorteile:

Simple to use, storage capacity, multilayered backup, team permisions...

Nachteile:

As citizen of EU I would like that my data is stored outside US. More customization would be nice. Cloud encription is extra charged???For a server on US soil?

A perfect Alternative to Google Drive

Vorteile:

Having used Pcloud for over a year now to store and share files online, I have to say that it is one of the best and most affordable cloud storage apps out there. In addition to its user-friendly interface, the software has many features similar to other leading players in the market like Google Drive and One Drive. pcloud is also suitable for businesses as it offers a lot of features that are perfect for collaboration, such as the ability to create groups, set permissions, and create sub-accounts. Overall, I highly recommend pcloud to anyone looking for an excellent file-sharing and cloud storage program.

Nachteile:

My main complaint about this software is that they are always selling lifetime deals and I wonder whether they will be able to sustain it with such a large user base in the future.

Reliable cloud, menus can be improved but quality guaranteed

Kommentare: I use it on a second computer that I hardly ever turn on; it is synchronized with a folder with video and audio content from some courses that I don't want to lose. It's been there for years and I'm comfortable

Vorteile:

the company is reliable, I have the assurance that I will never lose data, the assurance is not the cloud as a system, but the confidence I have in the company that is very large and has been in the market for many years. It is here to stay

Nachteile:

few innovative features and menus not always intuitive. Occasionally the login screen appears at pc startup, other systems are automatic and don't require your intervention, I don't know if that's good or bad, but it bothers me

pCloud is the best one-time payment cloud storage platform.

Kommentare: pCloud has made a game changer for me. The storage capacity is extensive, with first-rate features and functions, and the Spanish version is perfect.

Vorteile:

I always wanted to have a place to store my files and folders safely in the cloud, but without paying an additional monthly fee. And I found pCloud. What I like the most about this platform is that it is very secure and also easy to use. For me, it is like a replica of the interface of my laptop. I can create folders and sort my files with no problem. Another point in favor of pCloud is the possibility of synchronizing everything. And the best thing is that it adds more local storage to the computer when you download the file manager.

Nachteile:

One feature I don't like about pCloud is that in the Lifetime version, they limit up to 2 TB of traffic on downloadable links, even for 10 TB accounts. Ideally, the traffic limit is equal to the storage capacity.

Great for Cold Storage

Kommentare: I recommend this software for anyone have loads of cold data, that could consume much HDD storage.

Vorteile:

I am an old user of Cloud services. I found this service is the best comparing to GDrive and Dropbox. The price for a lifetime storage of 2TB is really good. The best I like about it is that it will never take a storage from my HDD, so it works as an additional storage drive. I prefer this option as I usually store files for a very long time with no use.

Nachteile:

Mobile app is not perfect, its functionality is much below the PC software. I face difficulties to adapt it with my Android.

Customer Service is terrible - functions are half-baked

Kommentare: The software is very processor heavy and doesn't allocate memory well when syncing. The customer service does not understand what the advanced features of the product do and can't help resolve any issues. I've used the product with some trivial issues that I was able to resolved but once I needed to reach out to customer service, they were unable to proceed. I would advise against this solution if data integrity and accessibility is something your organization requires.

Vorteile:

For the very basic file storage and syncing, the software is great.

Nachteile:

Customer support does not understand the issue you are trying to resolve.

pcloud, a perfect tool for cloud backup

Kommentare: In our case, we use pCloud to have a backup in the cloud, outside our facilities and to provide us with an alternative to our local backup. We have had problems with a server that has a lot of files. But overall we are very satisfied.

Vorteile:

For a single payment you can get a very large storage space to back up your data in the cloud.in addition, it offers a client that synchronizes, etc.

Nachteile:

If the number of files is very large, the client that takes care of the synchronization needs a large amount of space for the cache. In some cases, it is a problem.

It's ok for a free plan

Kommentare: I use pcloud mainly to store personal files, photos and documents. the interface is not so convenient and when sharing files there are very long links.

Vorteile:

I have been using the free account for several years. I was impressed with the challenge of hacking the crypto folder some time ago. But I'm definitely not (and I wasn't then) willing to pay a subscription fee for storing information. I really like the new idea of ​​buying a place in the cloud.

Nachteile:

I have been using the service as part of a mobile service package for many years. Everything is top notch, but the prices are staggering for a year. I would be happy to upgrade, but BGN 100 per year or BGN 300 for life for 500 GB ... it's kind of a lot. Backup is a top service and I mainly use it! Boldly forward and only up, and prices down

A better file sync/sharing alternative for creative folks

Vorteile:

Love the media player that allows you to play your music and video files right from within the app. When you share files it lets the recipient play the files without downloading which is great for musicians. Love that the app backs up your mobile devices media files too. The price point is very fair for the amount of storage you get and they have a lifetime option as well.

Nachteile:

I do wish the media player saved your spot when you close and open the file. It starts from the beginning whenever you close and reopen the file.

A more than wonderful program in managing data and storing information

Kommentare: Use this application to manage and store the company's information, as it has an archive that is distinct from others

Vorteile:

Easy to use, and good at archiving information

Nachteile:

Sometimes you will encounter some delay in processing the information, but the matter will soon be resolved quickly

Best value for money, best for security

Vorteile:

pCloud uses AES TLS/SSL 256 bit encryption in its standard plans, which by the way, are a bargain if you get the lifetime offers. Furthermore, they offer a lifetime plan for pCloud Crypto, which is an option to encrypt files saved on their servers. This means even someone with physical access cannot see your files.

Nachteile:

Lifetime plans offer no upgrade feature. 2TB seems enough now, but it probably won't be in a few decades. Practically, their lifetime plans won't last a lifetime (or 99 years) but you will have to buy a larger plan every 20-30 years or so. I hope in the future, old customers will get new bargains.

The Best Cloud Storage Service

Kommentare: pCloud helps me to share files with my co-workers and clients easily. As a freelance video editor, I can easily create and share large video files easily with my clients.

Vorteile:

pCloud is my primary cloud storage service I use to save images, files, and videos. pCloud is the only popular cloud storage service that offers a lifetime plan for users that comes with 500GB and 2TB space for the lifetime. Also, I like pCloud Virtual Hard drive that installs on my computer but doesn't take any space.

Nachteile:

pCloud Android App is really bad and it always crashes. Always their customer support is really bad. Sometimes they take 3 days to reply.
