|---|---|---|
| Value for money | CNo price could be read, so it cannot be set against the category. | C$7.99 a month for 2.5 TB, or $79.99 a year, against a $6.95 middle in file storage. Per terabyte it is low, but the starting price for one person is a little above the middle. |

Little else is listed. | CBackup with versions, incremental uploads, a local copy for faster restores and time-limited share links. The listing's own gap: only the small hot tier is for quick access, so it is a backup service and not a daily-use drive. |

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
