pCloud’s strongest advantage for me is the balance between fast performance, strong file security, and simple usability. I really like that it offers lifetime storage as an option, which makes it more cost-effective in the long run. The interface feels clean and intuitive, and uploading large files is noticeably faster compared to many other cloud services I’ve used. The ability to sync multiple folders and access everything smoothly across devices has been extremely convenient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
One drawback is that pCloud could improve its built-in collaboration features. While the core storage functionality is excellent, real-time document collaboration is limited, and sometimes I have to rely on external tools. Another minor issue is that the mobile app occasionally feels slower when loading large previews. These aren’t major problems, but fixing them would make the experience even better.

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.
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.

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.
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'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.
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.
