Overall Satisfaction with Apple iCloud

We use Apple iCloud for backing up our entire supply of corporate iPhones. It allows easy and convenient backup of phone data and documents. We use it to integrate, manage and classify various data, emails, phone calls, text messages, and documents.

  • Seamless integration with most of the Apple devices.
  • Intuitive contacts, notes, reminders & calendar syncing.
  • A small amount of space provided for free accounts, but bigger plans are available for purchase.
  • iPhone and Mac's products have easy backups for Apple devices, storages for pictures or other media.
A major dislike is the limited free space. I love how Google Drive allows photos at a certain size to be free.

It works very well with Apple products.
It's easy, simple and cost-effective as compared to other cloud backup solutions that are being offered today. You get 5 Gb free to start and it's only $1 to upgrade to 50 Gb! Can't beat that when you can download iCloud from any platform to back up all your documents, pictures and music.
I love how simple it is to have documets made in Pages and pictures from my phone synced to the cloud with little or no effort. So simple to move from one unit to the next.
A major dislike is the limited free space. I love how Google Drive allows photos at a certain size to be free. It would be nice if, when using an Apple program, those could be free too, like Pages. The other part that is difficult is when moving to a non-Apple system, this is not always simple.
