Clouds, clouds, clouds everywhere. You store your data in
the cloud, you exchange your data through the cloud, you carry essential mobile
information with you on the go in the cloud.
But, which free cloud to choose?
Well you have the major players: Google, Amazon,
Microsoft, all offering free cloud storage. No surprise here. Good place and
good business model – start with limited storage and encourage users to buy
more.
Well, there are much more players on the market than the “big
names”. Today, we will present one of the good alternative solutions.
Sync.com offers ease of use, speed and security at a
reasonable price. It also has a nice free plan you can use, and comes out of
the box with zero-knowledge encryption included.
Since its founding in 2011, this Toronto-based cloud
storage platform has been forging a reputation for strong security and user
privacy, earning notice as one of the best cloud storage services available.
Key to this success is Sync.com’s zero-knowledge
architecture, which prevents anybody but you from decrypting stored content. On
top of that, Sync.com’s home country of Canada has some of the best privacy laws
in the world.
While security and privacy may be Sync.com’s hallmark,
the provider also has a powerful set of features to drive collaboration and
productivity, including file sharing and device syncing.
