Taking tons of photos for Christmas or birthdays is fine. But being able to store and share them without risk is better. This is essentially what pCloud offers with its family storage offer.
From the last meal in a fashionable restaurant to New Year’s Eve with the family, there are (tens of) thousands of photos or videos that haunt our smartphones, PCs and other external hard drives. So many shared memories that are forgotten in our devices, and which end up saturating their memory.
To overcome these two problems, the pCloud content host offers an extremely simple solution: a large storage space (2 or 10 TB), shared between several users, and capable of storing your photos and videos with ease, and in the duration. Indeed, this formula available from 499 euros is valid for life or almost (we are talking about 99 years of service, anyway).
Online storage: a good way to easily share your memories with your loved ones
Opting for a shared online storage solution, like the one offered by pCloud, solves two of the major problems posed by the proliferation of digital memories.
First, it offers you a lot of storage space, to relieve your cluttered devices. No need to think before knowing if you should delete this or that photo to give some air to your smartphone with its saturated memory. With just a few clicks, you can send all your memories to the cloud, and access them whenever you want.
Also, because it offers you the possibility of simply sharing your photos and videos with your loved ones instead of letting them stagnate at the bottom of your photo feed. The pCloud family subscription can thus be used by a maximum of five users, who can share the 2 or 10 TB of the chosen plan.
The different profiles then have their own private folder to store what they want. Everyone is then free to allow other users to access certain directories, or to keep their archives for them.
Better, it is also possible to generate download links, or give access to a particular file to third parties in a jiffy. An ideal tool for sharing photos of the last family event.
A storage space that stands the test of time and intrusions
Another advantage of using pCloud services: security. Almost everyone has already lost years of archives following the breakage of an external hard drive, the loss or theft of a smartphone. Storing your photos, videos, or even these documents in the cloud is to protect yourself from this kind of inconvenience.
Once uploaded to the cloud, your memories are protected from (almost) all dangers. pCloud also makes it a point of honor to protect its customers’ files, as well as their privacy. The Swiss-based firm benefits from the country’s strict privacy laws, while its servers, based in Luxembourg, comply with the GDPR.
pCloud has also implemented several safeguards to protect the files entrusted to it. The stored data is of course encrypted, as are the transfer protocols. Last protective measure: the files sent to your space are stored redundantly on five different servers.
An easy-to-use solution for the whole family
The strength of pCloud undeniably lies in its ease of use. For starters, the pCloud app is available on a wide variety of media and operating systems. You can thus benefit from the service on:
- Web browser : Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Microsoft Edge;
- Computer : Windows, macOS, Linux;
- Smartphone or tablet: iOS and Android.
The service offered by pCloud also benefits from a clear and readable interface, with clear navigation. Whether you want to create a new directory or encrypt a file, everything is accessible in just a few steps.
Finally, the real-time update of the storage space allows all connected users to know what is happening immediately. No need to resort to a tedious manual update to find out if a particular file is still available.
Protect your family memories for life with pCloud Christmas offers
For the end-of-year celebrations, pCloud invites you to discover two offers to be used on its family formulas. The opportunity to save 70 to 85%, depending on the subscription you choose:
- The 2 TB family pCloud subscription at 499 euros instead of 1,700 euros;
- the pCloud family 10 TB subscription at 1,169 euros instead of 7,600 euros.
If the investment may seem a tad large, it should be noted that this is a one-time payment, which allows you to access your storage space for 99 years. This offer is already available, and will end on December 31st.
