"pCloud the affordable sync and backup solution"

4/5

What do you like best about pCloud?

It is complete sync and backup for all your devices: computer, mobile, and I have used it to back up my server using the WebDAV option in WHM. pCloud offers a 2 TB lifetime offer which makes it the best affordable solution and can be upgraded when needed and shared among your family. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about pCloud?

pCLoud Drive on Microsoft Windows has a problem when trying to sync large files; it may damage the file and some other files while syncing it; this happened to me; in addition, pcloud WebDAV cannot handle large files while using it as a backup solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Sharing files between five members of my family and sharing work files between my company employees, also providing my customers with a link to upload their files and arrange them by date saves our days. 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.

"pCloud, my loud storage of choice"

4/5

What do you like best about pCloud?

First, unlike Dropbox, I don't have 87 million conflicting files and, as such, duplicates. I love that I can run it on my phone and PC and that it will play the videos very well without buffering issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about pCloud?

Needs a duplicate finder (not for conflicting files, but when transferring files between devices that aren't linked to pCloud).

Its UX can be confusing, and I still can't figure out the difference between pCloud and pCloud Sync.

That's about it, it's pretty great other than that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I needed a large cloud storage solution for both personal and professional work. It allows me to collect video and pics from my phones to capture on automatic and then delete from the device so that I have only one copy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"! Is the best"

4/5

What do you like best about pCloud?

The way that it refreshes when you drop something in to the pCloud and in a flash everybody with access can perceive what you're seeing. It's an extraordinary method to remain coordinated on any PC from anyplace. It's not difficult to sort out as your group has full control of how you need to set up your pCloud framework; for instance, we use envelopes reliant upon customers, organization explicit records, required resources, and pictures. Recordings are effectively transferred. What's more, you can without much of a stretch offer a connection to the pCloud with other people who might not approach yet you need them to see a specific envelope of resources or recordings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about pCloud?

The Chrome expansion never appears to turn out accurately for me. Likewise, it didn't actually happen precisely like, on the main arrangement on my telephone, it promptly fired support up photographs that I could never have upheld up on the grounds that they weren't pertinent to the capacity. I can't help thinking that the individual should not have anything like that arranged right away. I had the option to enter the settings just as change them, however it appears as though I'm blowing up Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering pCloud:

pCloud is great for the vast majority. It does well overall, as record extra room, being multiplatform and furthermore a decent client experience with getting sorted out organizers and moving information. Where it would absolutely be in the ideal work areas for dealing with papers like different records and different arrangements. The capacity to oversee Google records, accounting pages and different things would surely be a critical benefit. The capacity to utilize a cycle to store document alternate ways. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I was giving different projects a shot a few gadgets that I don't approach. Indeed, I had as of now attempted a few arrangements, yet with pCloud I fostered another record and in almost no time I was additionally ready to run a test and download enrollment reports with valuable troubleshoot subtleties for the vital apparatus. It is superb that they have numerous gadgets accessible for establishment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"pcloud is nice."

What do you dislike about pCloud?

Well, it was great, but the price was too high. If you are not living in Europe or North America, the uploading speed would be slow. I hope it makes more servers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are no problems, I can use it every time, every day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Almost Cloud"

3.5/5

What do you like best about pCloud?

pCloud is the most cost-effective tool in its class. Period. This includes their individual and family plans as well as their business offerings. Their security is top notch, so your data will be safe. Something unique about their desktop software is that it connects to your cloud drive as if it were a USB flash drive or similar. Most companies like Google and Microsoft are moving this direction for the usability, but pCloud was a pioneer in this type of development. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about pCloud?

The only reason we moved away from pCloud was the lack of integration. We needed something that could back up to the cloud from our NAS drives and other Linux servers, but the options from pCloud weren't as customizable as we needed for our business. If they improve this, we would likely come back to this tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

pCloud has excellent backup features; everything from heavy files to the photos on your smartphone are accessible from anywhere, anytime. This is essentially industry standard at this point in time, but pCloud does this well and the set up was simple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"pCloud Review"

4/5

What do you like best about pCloud?

I like that it allows for secure online storage and has many file-sharing tool capabilities. My favorite features are that it autosynchronizes data across all of my devices and it uploads photos as well. It has a lot of robust features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about pCloud?

I did not like that the encrypted files cannot be shared. There is also some concern as to what they are doing with the data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I can view my photos that have been saved without the need to download them. I have 10 gigabytes of storage as well. One great benefit is I can access files from virtually anywhere. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Cloud Based Entire File Management Software"

4/5

What do you like best about pCloud?

The excellent aspect is that the pCloud has a pCloud Rewind feature that stores the file history for 30 days to quickly rewind to an earlier version if we unintentionally delete the files or make mistakes with the new version. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about pCloud?

Since it runs on the Internet, uploading and downloading larger files could be time-consuming while on a slow internet connection. Besides, as the file volume increases, it gets hard to store, search and manage them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

The general experience with pCloud has been good to date. Although sometimes, I face sync issues between its web and mobile application. With this tool, sharing, accessing, and managing our files and documents online has become fast and efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
