Overall, Icedrive is a wonderful product! I use it exclusively for File management and sharing, as well as long term storage! It's great value for money!

Pros

Fantastic value for money. I love that they offer one time payments, as well as their commitment to privacy!

Cons

I used to rely on their file syncing, but after an update I've had trouble getting it to work again.

Really good app with decent support, secure and easy to use across several platforms making it a decent investment for businesses on a budget but want a secure solution.

Pros

It's really good a platform has a lifetime deal per amount of storage and also a separate encrypted tier they don't upsell in addition to their packages like other platforms

Cons

ability to preview files and documents stored in the encrypted folders like a normal one. It makes it a bit cumbersome and they should really fix that

At the beginning there were a few little issues but the customer service was always there to help and they updated quite often meaning problems would be fixed as well.

Pros

The best thing about this is that I can use this service just like another drive on my computer but I have access to it from anywhere. I can easily mount it and it is just like having a physical drive but better. They are always updating it.

Cons

The only issue is it is probably not fast enough to really play games off of so don't use it for that. Everything else is fantastic.

Icedrive is a great new file storage company. It has great potential and I really wish it to succeed. It has good working apps for desktop, mac, phone AND linux. And if you still need more, you also have the web version. The storage space is generous, but the speed is sometimes lacking. Their interface is clean and modern and it looks like a great forward-thinking company. Give it a chance and you'll probably be pleasantly impressed.

Pros

They have a portable windows app, which works great if you want to have a larger storage on your memory stick. They also have a good working mobile app. Password protection and Share Timeout for files are also features that I use. A great thing is, they also have a Linux app, which I haven't used on my ubuntu PC, but it's great to know that it's available - for many other file storage services linux is completely forgotten. They actually made apps for every devices - desktop, mac, phone AND linux and PLUS the portable one. The Web version works really well, yet at some point they wanted to discontinue it.

Cons

The download speed sometimes is lacking. So this wouldn't be my primary pick for sharing very large files if you want them to get there quickly. A concern I have is, will the company last on the long-term? I see they have lifetime deals, and I, myself, have taken advantage of this deal, but if they keep it up, how will this affect their cashflow on the long term? I'm concerned about them shutting everything down and me not being able to recover my files in time. Which is why they aren't my primary pick for file-storage. Don't store the most important files on them, or if you do, also store them somewhere else. At least for the time being, I'd like to see them gain more "business roots" and see their long-term success. Having made apps for every device, the only thing missing is getting on the Windows Store for those of us who also have Windows 10 locked in S Mode.

### "Reliable Backup So Far!"

5.0

October 19, 2020

So far, their online storage has been reliable and I haven't experienced any errors while uploading via their website's "drag and drop" functionality. Honestly, I'm apprehensive about longevity since I purchased a lifetime subscription via AppSumo and I already had another lifetime service (Zoolz) go bust. If I keep seeing IceDrive grow their monthly revenue and reputation, I might start storing more critical files with them. For now, they're perfect for non-critical files. I haven't used their Windows client so I cannot comment on the functionality.

Pros

I picked up a copy of the software when it was available on AppSumo for a limited time. I've been using it to store non-critical educational files for viewing and listening over the internet. It's proven to be a great way to store files in the cloud and access them from anywhere.

Cons

Their iOS app does not allow you to play a video or audio file while the screen is locked. I was hoping to listen to audio and lessons while exercising but it shuts off when I lock the screen.

### "The most usable cloud storage"

5.0

July 15, 2022

Generally, I love Icedive because of it speed and ease of use.

Pros

I like cloud drive because when you log in, you feel like you are using your local storage. After all, it is fast and has the features of an offline file explorer. It allows the user to move files and folders between the cloud and local storage flawlessly. It uploads pictures directly from the camera with good quality, even in darker places. Uploading the picture happens quickly too. It is like a storekeeper who does not waste much of my time.

Cons

The app does not help me much with orderliness in my folders. If I upload a file which is already existing, it does not ask me what to do. I just find the same file multiple times. This is something that can be worked on.

This experience has left me feeling impressed and content, it’s great for storage.

Pros

This couldn’t be better for storage and yes it is fast. It’s affordable and I think the service is the best. I think it’s secure enough to store anything, it syncs completely. I like that I can play audio and video files from Icedrive, that is more useful in home life though. Couldn’t be easier to use.

Cons

All of the hiccups come when I want to share something or move files. It’s too complicated and a bit ridiculous. I think a way to work together should be included when updates are made.

My overall experience was pleasurable and I was pleasantly surprised with this product especially with it being somewhat new. Icedrive has some unique features but it's also missing several that you may need. Icedrive successfully served us as a cloud storage platform

Pros

The high level of security and great privacy policy are what attracted us to icedrive. It uses zero knowledge encryption meaning only you can view your files. I liked the ease of syncing and versioning files. Icedrive can be used like a physical drive on your desktop which is neat. It's also very convenient that no installation is required for use on your PC. It is easy to use with your phone or tablet as well. Icedrive allows you to customize the color or theme for each folder. I'm all about customization and while this is a simple feature it was one of my favorites! It also functions as a visual search aid. The overall design is crisp and appealing.

Cons

The downloading and uploading speeds have not been consistent nor satisfactory for me. I read reviews that praised the speed so that was very disappointing. Icedrive does not have some of the features that we need and were expecting. One of the foremost is duplicate file recognition, I don't understand why that was not included. It's incredibly frustrating. Collaboration tools are also lacking so it isn't necessarily suitable for teams.

I consider it is a great software if you want to save money, it offers a good price and the software itself is not so complex to use or synchronize files. the synchronization works in real-time and the platform doesn't crash at all.

Pros

it has different options to synchronize multiples devices and also we can mount a drive when you open the option this pc

Cons

sometimes the synchronization duplicates files for example if we change the name on a file, on the ice drive cloud appears the previous file with the old name and the new file that I just renamed. (this happens according to your setup preferences.
