"Reliable and secure cloud storage with flexible features"

4.5/5

What do you like best about pCloud?

I really appreciate the lifetime storage option and the flexibility pCloud provides in terms of plans and usage. The built-in media player makes it easy to stream music and videos directly from the cloud, while file versioning and backup options ensure I don’t lose important data. The pCloud Drive feature also allows me to save space on my computer by storing large files online without affecting my local storage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about pCloud?

Although pCloud is excellent overall, some features like pCloud Crypto require an additional paid upgrade instead of being included in standard plans. Customer support, while responsive, could be faster, especially when dealing with more technical questions. Also, the initial sync for very large folders can be a bit slow, though afterward the performance is smooth. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is pCloud solving and how is that benefiting you?

pCloud has helped me consolidate my personal and professional files into a single secure platform. For photo management, it allows me to back up and organize my photos without worrying about device storage limits. For work, it simplifies sharing large files with colleagues and clients, eliminating the need for email attachments or external drives. The selective sync and pCloud Drive features help me save local storage space, while version history ensures I can recover older versions of files when needed. Overall, it has reduced storage costs, improved data security, and streamlined collaboration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"My favourite cloud service"

5/5

What do you like best about pCloud?

I love how easy it is to access from all my devices, whether I'm at home or on the go. It's super easy to upload (and encrypt) my files and photos/videos. And trivially easy to share with friends and family who aren't super techy, so it's really convenient that they just need to click a link to watch whatever they're looking for.

Also, note that they offer generous amounts of cloud storage for a decent price. They offer lifetime deals a few times a year - stock up when they do! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about pCloud?

It doesn't allow me to back up my phones/tablets to it. That's more a factor of Apple not allowing it, of course, but it's frustrating to have all this space available and not be able to backup my phone to it regularly. I can back up/sync photos, but not contacts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"pCloud Review"

4/5

What do you like best about pCloud?

pCloud's reliability and security are its strong points. The upload and download speeds are faster than any service I have ever used and I have never experienced any downtime with pCloud in the two years I have been using it. And the extra layer of security added by pCloud Crypto is outstanding. Especially the way in which it so seemlessly integrates with the Windows 10 file system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about pCloud?

Occasionally, you need to restart your computer after updating the software in order for it to restart properly. Other than that, it works pretty flawlessly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering pCloud:

I would recommend trying the free version of the product before using the paid version. For the most part it works the same except that the Crypto feature is not available as that is a paid add-on. Still, I think you could get a very good sense of how the upload, download and sharing features work with the free product before making a commitment to purchase the service. Also, if you decided to purchase it, I would suggest considering the lifetime plan. The cost for the 2TB plan is very reasonable and I believe you would recover your monthly plan costs very quickly if you purchased the lifetime plan. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is pCloud solving and how is that benefiting you?

pCloud provides a good amount of encrypted storage at a reasonable price. And it provides that storage with a high level of reliability and confidence. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Lifetime purchase is a good investment"

5/5

What do you like best about pCloud?

Now my digital life and my work are all in the cloud, I needed space, a lot of space and I think pCloud was the right choice. Lots of space, an appropriate price and a service that works. It's easy to use and I implemented it in no time on my mobile phone, computer and tablet. I use it every day because it is the container for all my files Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about pCloud?

It has a small flaw which is a bit of a nuisance for me. It doesn't start automatically when I start it on my PC. Every day I turn it on and then I have to log in to be able to start working. Once logged in on Windows I would like to have my pCloud directly without logging in with my Google account every day. In the end, access to my PC is password protected and once I log in, Gmail and Drive work without having to log in every day. Why does pCloud ask me every day to log in with my Google account? I understand security but this is ridiculous. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Retrieving Content from Trash is a NightMare"

0/5

What do you like best about pCloud?

They seem to have better security and payment plans. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about pCloud?

1) Not the best UI. Often very un-intuitive design.

2) Customer support via email only. Sometimes if we need urgent help, or cannot figure their UI out, it can lead to useless mails back n forth from customer support being totally unhelpful and useless

3) Payment glitches leads to ALL CONTENT being moved to TRASH. retrieving the content from TRASH is a terribly difficult process. Simply upgrading the plan DOES NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. This is why I plan to migrate out from their platform and NOT Recommend them at all. BEcause we COULD LOSE ALL OUR STORED FILES on this platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
