Great Dropbox and Gdrive contender

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).

PROS

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

CONS

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.

Reason for choosing pCloud Business

I was offered discounted lifetime deal of 2TB and after considering mainly Dropbox and Gdrive as alternatives I've decided to go for pCloud due to their enhanced privacy and flexibility.

The best app to back up and store your files :)

I just love pc cloud everyone on the market should own one already! As now you can extend till 10tb of storage that great!

PROS

Since I putted my hand on this app I stoped using wetransfer for file transfers! So glad I have this as my phones and computers have an automatic back up! The best is available on iPhone as a cloud to use so I use it instead of Apple iCloud!

CONS

I wish they could have the way to record a video directly to pc cloud!

Reasons for switching to pCloud Business

Because it was lifetime deal ! And is the best!

Vendor Response

pCloud Business review

It was another lesson in you get what you pay for. Cheap and not good

PROS

Easy to use, just does not do the job. Concept and format is good, operationally flat out bad. Look elsewhere

CONS

I hate to take issue with so many, but pCloud is nowhere near as good as these reviews suggest. For months, I have been working with pCloud support to load a full set on my folders & files to their server. After much effort and may days and even more emails we got the data loaded. Then it all fell apart. While trying to sync their server locked up and could no longer upload files. Their solution was to tell me to not load any of my photographic data as their system was not designed to load those file types. Note that there was no time in the buying process where that is explained. Note too, that their system had uploaded the data initially but then could not sync. Next pCloud support said wait for the new release and all would be fine. The release came and NOTHING improved. This is all before we even talk about the number of DAYS it took to upload the data. I did request a refund of the money spent on the lifetime subscription and that simply fell on deaf ears. No question but what it is easy to use, it simply does not work as it should.

Vendor Response

Steven, clearly you didn't have a good experience with us. I'm sorry for this and would like to apologize. I've checked your support ticket and the main issue is trying to sync hundreds of files (cache files!) which have been changed every minute. I doubt any sync program can handle this, but anyway, we've refunded in full your payment, you've made 6 months ago. Take care, Andrew

A friend in the cloud

My experience has been wonderful, I have had no problems, I have been able to recover some lost or deleted files from my computer thanks to the fact that it keeps a file history for 30 days where it allows recovering from individual files to complete folders.

PROS

For more than 4 years I have kept my files synchronized with pCloud, I have never had problems, I have kept the files synchronized on 3 computers and backed up securely at the moment. pCloud is like an hard drive when you installing it is added as one more drive in my computer.

CONS

It does not integrate an online file editor as well as Google Drive that allows you to edit Word files online without opening them on the computer.

Reasons for switching to pCloud Business

I had problems with software that keeps files in sync between my computer and the cloud

pCloud Review

Overall it is good software and I had a great experience with it except for the syncing problem which I have experienced some time but other than that the software is great for what it was designed to do.

PROS

The ability to share documents with ease and only need a one-time payment instead of a monthly subscription.

CONS

Syncing can be a problem with pCloud because sometimes the software does not sync very well causing the file to be corrupted.

Reasons for switching to pCloud Business

Because Dropbox is a subscription-based where pCloud is a one-time payment
