The best cloud storage?

loganrp · May 6, 2015

I want to be able to have a reliable cloud storage option that is affordable, preferrablly has a plan that costs less than $10 but offers a large amount of storage, and does not require you do download the files locally... I currently use Jottacloud, a service hosted in Norway... It's very affordable and has an unlimited storage plan for only $9.95 a month, however the web client is terrible and the local client requires that the files be downloaded to the device the client is on... I have a tablet for on-the-go purposes that has a 128 GB SSD, and I have 98 GB of files currently on store... I will NOT download Jottacloud and as a result leave myself with about 20- GB of space ramaining on the drive.

I use Amazon Cloud Drive with the Unlimited plan for ~70$ a YEAR - 5,83$ a month.

Very simple desktop application, good speeds and easy to manage files through their website.

Is google drive a stable source? I have it, but I don't know if I should trust it because I've heard good and bad things about it.

Hey aexirogaming,

The problem with public clouds is that you have no idea where your data is stored. They have limitations and every once in a while crash for one reason or another.

If you need several terabytes of storage I would suggest either getting a portable hard drive or consider your own NAS to which you'll have access from anywhere.
