Editor’s Bottom Line of JustCloud

JustCloud uses Google Cloud Storage servers, which have yet to lose even a single file. The guaranteed uptime is an astounding 99.99999999%, which is 0.004 seconds per year. The data is stored redundantly both within the same facility and in secondary facilities. Google’s data centers are housed in America and Europe, but their exact location is not disclosed for security reasons.

JustCloud also allows vendors to resell cloud space, starting as low as $19.14/mo. Vendors are permitted to set their own pricing and brand the product as their own.

JustCloud is compatible with all major mobile platforms, including Kindle Fire and Windows Phone. They make it easy to backup multiple devices and access your files from anywhere. JustCloud has a feature that can track a lost or stolen device by the last place it used the Internet. Although this system is not foolproof, it is an invaluable tool to help the police recover your property. Even if the device is never found, all the data can be easily restored. Anyone with a number of different mobile devices should look into JustCloud.
