pCloud - Reviews and experiences

Overall, I gotta say the cloud storage service was pretty impressive. I liked how easy it was to use and that it had apps for Windows, iOS, and Android. Plus, the upload and download speeds were super fast, and it didn't slow down my computer. It was always syncing and backing up my data without any issues. I also appreciated being able to save stuff directly to the cloud without syncing my hard drive.

But there were some big drawbacks. I was worried about the lack of end-to-end encryption, unless you pay extra for the Crypto folder. And even with the encryption, the Crypto folder didn't have a trash bin or rewind feature, which made me unsure about using it as a secure option. I was also disappointed that there weren't location tags for my backed-up photos from my phone like Google Photos has. It just made the whole photo upload experience less enjoyable.

Data security is so important, especially after I had a scare with Google locking my account over some policy. It really showed me the need for end-to-end encryption and a secure cloud storage service. So, even though the service has its good points, it's lacking in data security and some user-friendly features.
