They are there. In our emails. In our Drives. They are these annoying yellow banners that have been displayed for a few weeks or months to encourage you to take out a subscription to expand your online storage space. To get rid of it, pCloud has a radical solution.
If you've had a Google, Microsoft or Apple account for a few years and have been taking advantage of the few gigabytes “free” offered, then there's a good chance you've come across some of their distressing messages: “⚠️ 80% of the storage space used…” followed by an incentive to take out a monthly or annual subscription to expand the storage space.
However, these subscriptions are often expensive and rarely generous. In the best case, they offer around a hundred gigabytes for around twenty euros per year. In the worst case, the 2 TB of storage costs 100 euros per year. A significant sum and above all which comes back every year.
To get rid of this space constraint and these annoying messages once and for all, the Swiss company pCloud offers an original and definitive online storage solution. Here, no monthly or annual subscription, but a single payment which guarantees storage space valid for life (in fact, 99 years) which can even be shared with five members of your family.
For the Easter holidays, pCloud is also offering a big reduction of 55% on its 2 TB family plan and 53% on the 10 TB plan. A temporary offer that lasts barely 5 days: it will end on April 1 .
What are the advantages of the pCloud lifetime offer?
The most obvious advantage of pCloud's online storage offering is that you only have to pay once to have peace of mind for the next 99 years. From March 25 to April 1, 2024, pCloud is lowering the price of its 2 TB and 10 TB offers:
the 2 TB lifetime family plan, shareable with 5 family members, is 399 euros during this period (55% reduction); the 10 TB lifetime family plan, shareable with 5 family members, is 1049 euros during this period (53% reduction).
The calculation is quick to do: if we compare the pCloud offer to the annual subscriptions of other online storage platforms, the user is profitable from the fourth year of use. And again, this is without taking into account the regular increase in subscription prices which do not fail to follow inflation. The sum of 399 euros may seem significant at first glance, but the investment quickly proves profitable.

This is all the more interesting as this online storage can be shared with five family members. Each member has their own personal space. A shared storage space that the account owner can easily manage from an interface allowing each family member's storage to be viewed.
A Swiss army knife application
Changing your online storage space also means changing your habits, which can be scary. From this point of view, pCloud has thought of everything. The service is naturally accessible from a browser, but the Swiss company has also developed a whole series of applications, extensions and features so that this storage space is integrated as simply as possible on users' devices.
Once the pCloud Drive application is installed, the online storage is integrated into the computer like a virtual hard drive, accessible at any time.
Its application, pCloud Drive, is compatible with all current operating systems, whether on computer or mobile: macOS, Windows, Linux, but also Android and iOS. pCloud Drive was designed to behave like a virtual disk. Installed on a computer, it allows you to virtually increase storage space. Simply open it to find your files, but also to drag and drop your documents. Once present on the pCloud servers, the application allows them to be consulted, edited and shared.
Synchronization, backup, sharing: everything is possible, easily
The app syncs naturally between all devices. pCloud has pushed the vice so far as to develop a functionality ensuring that a folder hosted locally on your computer or smartphone is automatically synchronized with a pCloud folder. If you add, edit, or delete a file in one online or local folder, the change will automatically be reflected in the other.

Another feature of pCloud Backup even allows you to make regular and automatic backups of a local folder (on your computer or your smartphone) to always have a backup backup.
Finally, the pCloud Drive application is very easy to use. Its interface is entirely in French and includes numerous sorting and search options to manage documents. A click on a file or folder is enough to open the sharing options with third parties. They don't need to have a pCloud account to access your files.
