Hello Warriors,
I am considering these cloud storage services. I was hosting my files only at namecheap hosting, but if I want to upload bigger files, the upload speed is slower. I already searched for reviews at Google but still cannot decide.

Which one do you recommend? The ones that is
- Fast upload speed.
- Very secure, at least when I read about Google Drive some reviews claim that it is not secure.
- Worth every penny. It will be great if any of the service is free to try.
#amazon #box #drive or s3 #dropbox #synccom

    Most of these cloud storage services have some sort of free option, but they normally have limits - upload file size, storage capacity, etc.

    For me, the best bang for my buck has been Amazon S3. I back up 20 of my websites there on a daily basis - a couple of them are large sites - and to date, my average monthly bill is about 65 cents. That's for about 2500 "requests" (PUT, COPY, POST, or LIST) and about 20 GB per month.

    Hope this helps...

    We use Amazon for storing our own files and backups and Dropbox for moving files around both internally for shared users and for clients to send and receive files.
