![]() ![]() Even the big guys, like GDrive or OneDrive, have an incredibly broken sync by comparison. Well, I've actually migrated to Google Drive (on GSuite) this month, due to Dropbox Support pissing me off, but that's another story.īut the interesting part, which should be clear after a single day of usage, is that all Dropbox alternatives, except for Resilio and Syncthing, fail at the most basic task that users want, which is to reliably synchronize your files. (2) Syncthing ( ), the open source alternative, which is OK, but hard to configure and Resilio does stuff out of the box, like encrypted foldersĪnd I'm using Resilio Sync in addition to Dropbox. (1) Resilio Sync ( ) which I use, in combination with a cheap VPS with 2 TB of storage on it ( in case you're wondering, not affiliated) Plus I'm not inclined to host my own stuff, because that would get very expensive.Īctually you haven't mentioned the only real alternatives. It's really slow, could not handle the several hundreds of GBs I have stored and there have been situations of users losing their data. ![]() I haven't tried NextCloud, but ownCloud is shit. Plus you cannot trust encryption that is not peer reviewed -) The chances of implementing reliable encryption while not getting basic security straight are next to none. ![]() But ALAS my trust in them dropped to zero. I asked them about it because I could not believe it and they said it's "on their roadmap". PCloud doesn't do 2-factor authentication yet, which is freaking important for your non-encrypted files at least. All of this is a symptom of them not being popular enough I'm sure, but that's not a good sign. There have been reports of throttling on large uploads. SpiderOak has a high price, has been very slow in my tests and their client doesn't work well. ![]()
