    Amazon Cloud Drive is a fantastic backup solution for storing your digital files on the web, but if you want to manage, tweak, organize or otherwise maintain those files after they have reached the cloud, the experience immediately begins to suffer. This is especially noted when major competitor products like Microsoft and Dropbox offer similar services at similar prices, but offer far better interfaces for file management.

    pCloud

    I need to store and share a lot of files. These include videos and other documents. Before using pCloud, I constantly had to clean up and delete files from my hard drive to free up space for new files. Sharing files and also using files on my website is now easier with pCloud's public folder.

    Pros

    Amazon Drive

    • Amazon Drive automatically detects photos and videos in specific folders (that you choose). It will add them to Drive without any action from me.
    • There is a desktop app where you can access all of your files (in addition to web-based access).

    pCloud

    • pCloud helps us to store data very well and it is accessible from anywhere. It makes it easy for anyone to use it and secure the data. It is easy to upload data and access it while having a meeting with our client.
    • pCloud easily stores files from another platform as well like Google Drive or Dropbox. It easily exchanges information like images, videos, and documents. This feature is amazing as it gives access to files from other storage.
    • It had one feature known as pCloud Crypto which gives high-end security to the data when stored. It is highly secure and encrypted. It uses blockchain technology which requires a key to use called Crypto Pass to unlock your data. Really like it.

    Cons

    Amazon Drive

    • Less storage than Google Drive, Google offers 15GB of free space - vs. Amazon's 5GB.
    • Also, unlike with Google Drive, you can't back up your work with Amazon Drive ( I also use Google Drive, since I have a Gmail account).
    • A lot more expensive than Google Drive, which is 1.99/month...but they are more in line with Dropbox pricing.

    • Every time we try to download a file, it fails to complete the process
    • The newly uploaded files are not being correctly synced automatically

    The system is very easy to use and it's use of apps for almost all devices and hardware makes it even easier to manage and store photos and documents. I highly recommend this as an easy to use solution for novices!

    Overall great software to use for file share, storage, and collaboration. Its security is great and the user management is spot on. The only thing that makes me dock it a point is that the device management as a subset of user management is kind of clunky. It hasn't been an issue yet, but it could compromise security in the future. Overall, would recommend

    Alternatives Considered

    Amazon Drive

    Amazon Drive Cloud has the advantage of being backed by one of the companies that has had the highest growth in recent years: Amazon. That gives us security and has been the main reason for us to trust this product. We believe that the security systems of this company are good enough to be quiet while our files are stored on their servers

    pCloud

    pCloud's pricing is cheaper than alternatives. pCloud is modern and easy to understand.pCloud has mobile sync which is an amazing feature for me. Even it allows me to upload from a direct download link! pCloud has every feature that an average user required as a cloud backup or cloud storage.

    Return on Investment

    Amazon Drive

    • It slowed us down at first since we went from purely agile to document based then agile.
    • It is easy to use so even non-developers can access code snippets which they wouldn't know how to access on github.
    • It has a lot of features we don't have a use for in our business.

    pCloud

    • pCloud had worked very well for us. It had given the best service and features to us whenever we needed our data. It was there safe and secure.
    • The Synchronization issue is there with pCloud Data Storage. It needs to be updated by the developers if possible.
    • pCloud has helped us with the improvement of our business requirements, as it makes our work easier and fast enough to deliver the project details on time to clients.
