### "ICloud is the Extra Space We needed!"

November 27, 2023

4.0

Overall, my experience with ICloud has been awesome. We need the space in an easy to use platform and and iCloud has done this for us.

Pros

I love how easy it is to upload to and utilize the cloud. This makes it easy to tap into that extra storage we all need.

Cons

I have only good things to say about iCloud.

### "One of the best cloud storage service"

April 22, 2021

4.0

iCloud is very useful in backing up and storing my files on the cloud space. It help me to clear my phone storage and i only store important file and document on my phone that i usually need it for offline access.

Pros

Using iCloud to saving all my contact information, photo, video, audio and document to the cloud storage is very smooth and effective with this application. It has no file size limitation on how small or big the files that i am uploading to the storage. Changing from my old phone to my new phone is no problem as i can access to my files back as long i am using the same apple id with it.

Cons

Managing the files and emails on this application is quite headache. The searching feature is too slow in showing the result and often, it returned a result that are not matching with the keyword that i have entered. The synchronized process also quite slow and takes some time for it to be shown on the my other device.

### "Double edge sword"

May 20, 2022

4.0

In general use, iCloud is considered convenient and user friendly. But, if the user requires more technical information it doesn't suit the high skilled user.

Pros

An automatically backup system was helpful, I love the part where the system chose the nighttime for the process. Also, the price of iCloud per storage is reasonable.

Cons

There are a couple of points that I think should be improved. 1. In backup files, if it is possible to choose the file's content to backup this could be helpful. Currently, I don't know what are specific content that had been stored. 2. Multiple devices, currently I don't know that the iCloud backup all the files in each device separately or doesn't stored the common data files type. It might be helpful is the information from two devices are the same then the system automatically stored only one not two files.

### "Apple is nothing without iCloud"

July 22, 2021

5.0

Over the course of my use of iCloud since its implementation, the service has expanded significantly to address the changing needs of Apple users over the years. The functions that allow restoring user settings and preferences is by far my favourite, and has saved me countless hours of tweaking following the usually difficult switch to a new device.

Pros

It's hard to imagine using an Apple device without iCloud; the service has proven to be indispensable since its introduction - user data in all forms, from files and documents to settings, preferences and messages, are all conveniently saved to iCloud to be retrieved by the owner at any time, from any device. At the heart of iCloud is a robust, infallible suite of security and encryption protocols, making private data irretrievable by any means other than authentication.

Cons

It's difficult to fault a free service like iCloud; even without purchasing additional storage, the standard plan provided offers more than enough functionality and storage for typical use. When it comes to the purchase of additional storage, iCloud is priced competitively in first-world markets, but weighs in on the pricier side in other regions.

### "INSANELY Affordable Cloud Storage"

March 9, 2022

5.0

Cloud storage has never been so accessible and so affordable at the same time, I am a super Apple user so naturally for me, iCloud is a must. Having the ability to increase or decrease my storage at my command at any time means ultimate control.

Pros

I love that I can access all of my files and documents from any of my Apple devices, making my workflow familiar and seamless.

Cons

Not a con, but I would love to see more support for creatives, with potential further video tagging features etc could be extrenely valuable for me.

### "iCloud is the epitome of security"

April 6, 2023

5.0

I still use it though, and since I adopted this software, I stopped worrying about my personal data security issues that are common in other software such as being unable to recover your data.

Pros

I do like iCloud software for the reason that it stores your personal files and enables you to recover them in case of delete it prevents any external access to your end-to-end encrypted datait offers the data synchronization in case you are distant

Cons

not much to mention in such case, but the more you are indulged using it it gets difficult to understand all its options. That is to say, its complexity only reinforces the matter how far it is secured.

### "Best cloud solution for Apple users."

August 23, 2023

Excellent product which I've recommended and configured for my whole family.

Pros

It so easily and seamlessly integrates with all my Apple product (iPad, iPhone and Macbook Pro). So many aspects likes configurations, password management, are so well and securely integrated and implemented.

Cons

I find the sharing capabilities of my photos with iCloud are lagging in feature and usability versus the other competitors.

### "Eliminates Human Error"

May 31, 2022

5.0

Overall, I enjoy iCloud and will continue to use it.

Pros

iCloud has saved me countless times when I did not back up my phone or my computer. Whether it be my computer crashing in college or my phone falling in water, I was able to restore my devices to recent versions thanks to iCloud and its ability to auto-synch and store large amounts of data for free or an inexpensive amount,

Cons

What I struggle with this software is data overload. I often find myself wondering, do I need to store all this data with the auto data synch. I wish there was a better way to go through and clean it out.

### "iCloud is the best platform if you own apple products."

April 7, 2022

5.0

Overall I really like this system for managing my files. It works very well for my apple products and also handy when I need to free up space on my phone/desktop/iPad :)

Pros

I absolutely love that I can have my desktop files downloaded on multiple computers and have them updated easily. This is very handy if you work from multiple places (like at home on a desktop computer and also on-the-go on a laptop). You can access your files on your phone-- just make sure you use wifi to download everything not LTE. :)

Cons

The file sharing features are still not 100% there. You can do it but it's a little clunky as far as ease goes.

### "A storage service worth using!"

December 1, 2021

5.0

Ultimately, as an avid apple user, I love using iCloud because of its compatibility with all my devices. Anytime I have an issue, I am able to contact apple support and get help immediately with no complications. Also, iCloud is very convenient for me to use to save all my photos into one spot. With that being said, iCloud is a software that takes time to adapt to and learn how to use. It may not be the best software of choice if an individual is not tech savy.

Pros

I really admire how each individual with an Apply device gets free 5GB of storage in iCloud. This allows the user to test its features and truly use it to see if they are interested in buying more storage after the 5GB. Icloud is designed to be compatible with macOS and iOS devices but an added bonus is that it is also compatible with Windows. Also, apple is known for having great customer service which is another reason why I like to use iCloud.

Cons

I find it more difficult to share files with other users compared to Google Drive. Icloud is built specially for users with apple devices, thus those with Androids cannot download this app. This places limitations on the amount of users that can use this.

### "Long time user of iCloud"

June 15, 2023

5.0

Pros

iCloud offers a seamless integration with all my Apple devices, making it effortless to access and share documents, photos, and other files anywhere, anytime. Moreover, I appreciate iCloud's comprehensive backup solution, which gives me peace of mind knowing my data is safeguarded against unexpected loss.

Cons

One area where iCloud falls short is its pricing structure for storage upgrades; it can become quite expensive for those who need more than the free 5GB storage. Also, for non-Apple users, iCloud's cross-platform functionality is limited, which can lead to compatibility issues when sharing files with users on other operating systems.

### "iCloud Review"

October 30, 2023

5.0

In general, iCloud provides seamless cross-device synchronization, but limited free storage and potential compatibility issues on non-Apple devices may require careful consideration and budget planning.

Pros

iCloud's cloud storage is a lifesaver. It seamlessly syncs my data across devices, making access and backup a breeze. It's the ultimate convenience for my digital life.

Cons

However, iCloud's free storage is limited, and upgrading can be pricey. Also, it's not as user-friendly on non-Apple devices, which can create compatibility issues.

### "ICloud: The daily way to keep my files safe and secure and accessible"

July 16, 2022

5.0

Overall, iCloud has kept my personal files safe and easily accessed and transferable between all of my devices. I am glad I have it and pay for more storage.

Pros

I like how all of my Apple devices are tied to the same Cloud system and can be easily accessed from any device.

Cons

I wish there were different tiers of pay beyond 200GB. A 500GB level would be great

July 24, 2021

My experience from shifting android is like just wow very cool i really very happy and satisfied while using icloud over any platform i know its expensive while we upgrading to storage but i think it's worth coz the security and and access that it's provide i think no any company can beat so if you're like me who cares about privacy and safety i definetly suggest to shift iCloud

Pros

Yeah i am very very impressed while i am switching from android but man the icloud is just wow i can easily login everywhere and access and also manage my data too much easily and i am govt servent so i need full of security coz many files are sensitive so it helps me more and my all apps data including third party apps was very greatly stored so i can easily switch to any iPhone with only just login my icloud with all data

Cons

Coz is just like it giving 5gb free storage so i think its not enough like me if it was 10gb so i think its better, some android apps integration is not possible in iPhone coz its privacy and security issues , so except this 2 things i don't think so you get any trouble

What I love the most about the software is that is easy and very convenient to use when you need it ASAP.

### "Amazing Online Storage for IOS Users"

March 6, 2023

5.0

I can almost say Apple and iCloud really matched, your data is safe and this is a very reliable platform.

Pros

iCloud has been everyone's best friend when it comes to storing your data if you are an IOS user, as we all know iPhone has limited data storage depending on how many Gig your device is. Since it's not an expandable device, I always rely on this one in terms of storing my data including important photos, video memories, and also favorite applications. Instead of paying a high amount of data storage on the device you will purchase which will cause you an ample amount of money, this is a highly suggested platform that will save you a lot.

Cons

If you are an IOS user, once you messed up with your iCloud password you can possibly lose all of your data including your device since you cannot bypass it once your device has undergone an iCloud password Issue. So better take a hold of your Password once you signup with this.

Pros

I've been using iCloud for more than 5 years now, I would say one of the best it has one of the best UIs for products in the world. almost any person can easily use it without any issue.

Cons

If there were some more features regarding the file-sharing permission it was great, even with the current features it's still nice.

### "iCloud, le nuage qui stock toutes vos données"

June 18, 2023

5.0

J'utilise iCloud tous les jours lorsque je prends une photo, télécharge un logiciel, fais une recherche internet. C'est pour moi indispensable

Pros

Ce que j'aime avec iCloud c'est que je peux connecter tous mes appareils apple en instantané. Lorsque je prends une photo avec mon téléphone je la retrouve juste après sur mon ordi. C'est indispensable !

Cons

Bien qu'iCloud présente des avantages tels que le stockage et la synchronisation des données, il y a certains inconvénients à prendre en compte. Le principal inconvénient est l'espace de stockage limité offert gratuitement, ce qui peut entraîner des coûts supplémentaires pour les utilisateurs ayant besoin de plus d'espace. De plus, une connexion Internet stable est nécessaire pour accéder aux données, ce qui peut être problématique dans les zones à faible connectivité. Enfin, certains utilisateurs peuvent s'inquiéter de la confidentialité de leurs données, bien qu'Apple assure un haut niveau de sécurité.
