I was very excited to read a 25gb secure service I feel very let down its on 5gb per user It almost feels like a bait a switch to get free press


@TexasWheels Hi! We wanted to make it possible for a small business to sign up and get at least 5 people working together :) We're definitely up-front that the 25GB free is 5GB x 5 users!

Hello - I just signed up and Im only seeing 5GB of total space. Is there something I need to do to get the 25GB?

Nevermind - I see where the 25 GB comes from now. Its a bit of a let down just because I wasn't going to use it for collaboration. Im sure it will work well though for those who collaborate! :)

Hi @dujsu, if you want unlimited storage it's only $50/month! You can have just yourself as one user or add up to 9 more at that price - and it's TRULY unlimited: files are retained forever, every past version of every file is kept forever, as much as you'd like to store.

HI @dujsu - yes - the solution is very much built for collaboration. So the 25GB refers to your "team" or "company" account, and each user gets 5 GB. Having said that - if you're a paying user, you get unlimited storage, so that's worth checking out as well

Hi TexasWheels - sorry you feel that way. To be clear - this is an SMB service or a team service. So there's no bait and switch here - you get a 25 GB company/team account. It isn't designed for sharing a lot fo music or movies or things like that. But as a collaboration service - its fantastic. Have you tried it out yet? Try setting up 2 way collaborations with people you're working with - and you'll start to see some of the power of the platform.

Two Features I Like ( Some Free Sites Do Not Have Them ): A - The Browser Is Allowed To Do Uploads And Downloads, B - No Delayed Downloads. One More Site For My Collection. Thank You.


There'll be a lot more power added to the web application next week as well - so nearly everything you can do with the desktop app you'll be able to do in the browser seamlessly.

This is not mobile friendly at all... Their iOS solution is an an extremely limited HTML5 web app with no way to upload files! They tout collaboration but without a two way flow there is no collaboration!


HI @Sbuckland - you might have seen that the Android app has gone live - check it out (still waiting on Apple to publish the iOS one). I can't post links here in this comments section - but if you search "FileLocker" in google play you'll find it. Its the one by InfraScale Inc.

It would appear there is no threat scans prior to file sharing ... is that true?
I upload a known good file, share with 4 users, they make a few changes but have an infection on their local machine (unknown to them). They share back, I download and now i'm infected.

The Best Referral Program...(Copy Referral Program — In possibly the most rewarding referral program in cloud storage history, Copy users can earn 5GB of additional free storage for both themselves and the person they introduce to Copy for each referral, with no limit on the total capacity they can earn. The average Copy referrer has earned well over 60GB of free storage, with the largest referrers earning space in the 10s of TBs), Follow this link to get started with 20 GB. https://copy.com?r=itVLNk
