Home (family) subscription cannot limit volume for your kids

Everything is fine except the volume partition for every family member, I am still waiting for (I have been told this should be no problem to do) since I subscribed for Home subscription 5 TB

inconvenient, buggy, slow as a snail

I am extremely dissatisfied with the service. Starting from the fact that exfat is not supported on Mac OS - while everything works fine on Windows. Ending with the clown show with the speed limit - on Windows after 5 TB the speed drops but not as fatally as on Mac OS - I've been pouring 500 gigs for a week. Garbage service

I actually haves nothing bad to say…

I actually haves nothing bad to say about Jottacloud. I have used them for around 10 yrs. They are steadly improving themselves, and it has been very easy to get access to them. At least here in Norway where I live. It seems safe to have my files there, they never use them for other purposes. All in all, for me I have no other choise than give them 5 stars.

Trusted photo storage for over a decade

I've used Jottacloud since 2012, mainly for photo backup. It's reliable, easy to use, and offers unlimited storage. Sync works well across all devices.

It supports photo metadata like geotagging, but advanced features like face recognition or smart albums are missing. Still, it's a solid and trustworthy service I keep coming back to.

And protected by the mountains! Our data center is built inside a mountain, doesn't get much more Norwegian than that? :)

Good but photo album needs improvement

The mobile app and the desktop application both have improved tremendously in the past couple of years. It’s also good value and avoids big tech.
The photo album is the only exception for me. That feature is still very basic in terms of looks, sorting, filtering, sharing. Needs to become the focus.

Solid provider, user experience could be better

Non-US provider. Hotline responses are quick. Sync from linux has command line client only without live icon.

Structure of file deposits confusing, inflexibel. I would prefer a pure file storage. No easy way to get disk usage for optimization.

.... and yes it is truly unlimited

I have been using their UNLIMITED cloud for 8 years now and I have never had any problems. For example, I had to update the HDs on my systems and I wondered if I had to reload everything from the beginning, instead the support guided me to the absolutely rapid procedure (compatible with the volume of data!) of recovery directly from their archives. What can I say, absolutely satisfied .... and yes it is truly unlimited. Of course you don't have to exaggerate but I am about 9 Tb and I don't need anything else.
