There are also no limits to up/download speeds. There’s no file size limit with Icedrive. It’s also possible to share files from it. You can watch movies, images and open documents with it. It requires no install, you download the program and just launch it. The portable app basically allows you to manage your files at a greater scale than their virtual drive app. You can also access the Encrypted Folder (for which you have to enter your decryption password) and “Shared With Me” folder. The drive allows you to access and edit the files in the cloud. Crypto payments are available only for their lifetime plans. If you don’t like their service simply grab the money back and take it elsewhere. A 14-day money-back guarantee is placed on all Icedrive plans. Paying for the plans can be done via PayPal, Visa and MasterCard. Icedrive is also one of the cheapest cloud storage providers out there. Now, who knows what will happen in 20 years but it’s easy to calculate that you will start seeing massive savings after 2-3 years of cloud storage usage. In return for a one-time payment, you get to keep your online storage space for a lifetime. It is a really unique opportunity to invest into cloud storage and save money in the long run. They’ve also introduced lifetime plans alongside pCloud. Icedrive has 3 different paid plans when it comes to storage capacity. In which case, we need to look at their paid plans. The free offer is quite enough if you need to store a few documents and a small music collection but I need my storage capacity a lot bigger than that due to the big photo collection. That number is quite good when you compare it with for example Dropbox that only offers 2 GB of free storage. Icedrive offers 10 GB of free permanent storage with a 3 GB daily bandwidth limit. This enables easy retrieval of files in various scenarios such as malware infection. IcedriveĪccourding to pricing already changed.The rewind feature allows you to go back in time and inspect your cloud storage as it was in that moment. For storing other type of content (images, etc.), I use Icedrive, which provides enough storage for me to store important images and other data. I archive my blog posts and writings using archive.ph. I am pretty simple when it comes to archiving data. I think it's effective, but "it's really it's up to you".Īsk HN: How do you plan to archive all your digital content? I've used IceDrive () and Jaybod () for Cloud Platform. IceDrive really efficient,with high grade Encryption and focused on totally privacy (haves lifetime plans).ĭata Encryption for your Personal Cloud Storage? Icedrive looks cool, their customer support is good and they are trying very hard to make a name in the competitive world of online storage solutions.īut when you need to trust you personal and sensitive documents its always better to choose the best out there. I would definitely go with pCloud as my primary backup solution as they are already established cloud providers. With crypto LT subscription my 1 TB pCloud plan values at 185$. I think they have to reconsider their prices too, atleast until they gain more customers.Ģ TB plan on pCloud is 350$ which makes their 1 TB 175$ (though they do not have 1 TB plan, but still that’s what their plan value is)Īnd they always give offers too, like I got my 2TB LT pCloud plan for 245$, which makes 1 TB just 122.5$ which is cheaper than the IceDrive. It’s good for your mobile backups (photos & videos) which are not that important.īut I DO NOT recommend them to store your important documents. They would require atleast one year more to stabilize every basic operations and run smoothly. I know, they have only started this year.īut with lots of technical issues I don’t recommend them to be your main cloud storage. When you try to rename files & folders, it won’t allow at times, may allow after you try multiple times.Įncrypted file option is good. And without any option to check the folder details its headache at times) So you’re not sure if all the files are uploaded or not. (When you upload lots of files, most times the progress bar hangs and stops at some random percentage. There are lots of basic function issues they need to fix.įolder downloading is not possible on Icedrive, which is a huge problem. They have a very long way to go to reach anywhere near the big guys like Onedrive, Google Drive, Dropbox and pCloud. I would like to point out that Icedrive offers only 10GB free space now for new accounts. I am a lifetime subscriber of Icedrive and would like to share my thoughts on it.
