I work on the go and in many different locations. It also instructs how to use the software very easily, which helps me a lot because I'm by no means tech-savy. I feel secure knowing my data is protected. > > **Cons**: I had some initial trouble using it with Android, but then almost immediately after I ended up switching to Iphone anyway, so when I downloaded the app on ios it was totally fine ----- ### "A personal vault for my most precious files" — 5.0/5 > **Allan** | *August 5, 2021* | International Affairs | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: What I liked most about using ElephantDrive is the ease of use. Setting it up on my multiple devices was very simple and direct. The best part was that my files synced in real time without any delays at all. > > **Cons**: The storage capacity given for the free account should be expanded. > > ElephantDrive allowed me to save and recover some very useful work documents when our systems were ravaged by a deadly virus that corrupted a large number of files in the institutional cloud storage service we used. Fortunately, I kept a personal backup of all files I worked on in ElephantDrive so I was able to quickly recover the files of interest to make sure no valuable time was lost. ----- ### "Back up your files" — 5.0/5 > **MONICA** | *March 26, 2018* | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: Backed up files fast once the steps were followed More than one user Works with multiple devices Fast connection > > **Cons**: Not user friendly Too many steps needed to back up the information compared to other products Costumer service took long to respond ----- ### "I back up everything in my life with Elephant Drive - it never fails me\!" — 5.0/5 > **Heather** | *February 15, 2018* > > **Pros**: While I love the automatic backup function, the Elephant Drive Everywhere feature is my lifesaver. I've been far from home and needing to remember some small detail - whether it be a medical record, or something even more personal that no one else would have access to, and Everywhere is there for me. One good story of ElephantDrive Everywhere coming through for me happened when I found myself near the university my mother used to teach at and I wanted to visit the classroom that had been hers. Using ElephantDrive Everywhere, I was able to locate on my cell phone a digital copy of an old letter I had of hers, which had the address of her classroom on it. All of this happened when I was 3000 miles away from the computer to which I had originally scanned and saved that letter\! ElephantDrive Everywhere had it right there for me, on my phone. It was awesome. > > **Cons**: It took me a little bit of learning to get used to the UI. They could have a better start up or tutorial process. ----- ### "this is a cloud storage service that allows its users to perform data backups in a scheduled manner." — 5.0/5 > **Moises** | *April 11, 2018* | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: it is nice this service runs on both Windows and Mac platforms, and allows users to create simple automated rules for protecting data by moving it into an ElephantDrive account. > > **Cons**: the least i like about is that ElephantDrive doesn't offer an unlimited plan. so you have to add that plan because the competitors offer unlimited backup. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ca/software/111849/elephantdrive?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ca/software/111849/elephantdrive) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | ----- ## Structured Data
