Vast Storage, Minor Glitches

pCloud's 10TB plan offers more space than I'll ever need. It occasionally has sync issues which can be a bit frustrating. Addressing these small glitches would make this a flawless service.

Almost Perfect for Small Businesses

The 2TB lifetime plan is a cost-effective solution for my business. It simplifies our file sharing but lacks some collaborative tools found in other services. Great value, but a few additional features would make it perfect.

Very slow upload speeds

Very slow upload speeds, Tested in 3 different continents. USA, Europe, Australia. Gigabit up/down in USA and Europe and 50mb up and 1gig down in AUS yet upload speed is never above 500kbps. It has always been this way for the last 2 years I have used the service. AVOID!

Secure, Yet Interface Could Improve

IT JUST WORKS and does so perfectly

At first, I was a bit wary when I changed from DropBox to pCloud, but I haven't had a single regret. I've been with them in Europe for maybe 2-3 years and everything just WORKS. Which is what you expect from a sync and backup service. You just want it to work and not have to deal with it anymore unless you want to. Just yesterday it saved my a** since I had to wipe my phone. All my pictures are safely stored on pCloud.
