PogoPlug Cloud Storage – Unlimited 12 Months for USD $29, Normally USD $49.95

20

I joined his from this OzB post http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/84123 to get the usual free 5GB, but have never used it.
There seems to be some interesting features, but frankly I have not had time to really look into it to see how it truly compares to the likes of Dropbox, Box, Drive etc..

I received an email for this deal today, it expires on Jan 31.
So there is a few days to fully asses if this is a truly great deal.
I was about to buy 100GB from DropBox, hopefully this can work.

      What has that got to do with anything? I have got 75GB free from box, but this is different.

  • I just tried the speed. It's quite decent. Averaged 8 Megs a second download but the upload was averaging 300 Kilo bytes a second.

    • screw you and your internet. I can DOWNLOAD at 300kb/s on a good day.

      • You tell him! He's an egg gone bad alright!

  • Anyone know whether it has a Windows client to back up the PC?

    • This is something I want to look into. DropBox does an awesome job.

      Pogoplug PC vs Pogoplug Companion Software

      Pogoplug PC

      It was created in order to provide you with an easy way to access, stream, and share your content that is stored on your desktop or laptop computer.
      It effectively turns your computer into a Pogoplug enabled device, allowing you to view your files from anywhere, so long as you have a mobile device such as an iPhone, tablet, or Android, or a friend or family member's computer.
      The software is incredibly useful if you wish to access documents on your home computer while at work, or on your work computer from your house.
      It is now available for a free 30 day trial, and once that expires, $29.95 will purchase a license that is compatible on all of your computers. You can try it today by clicking here.

      Companion Software

      It enhances your Pogoplug experience by allowing you to easily establish automatic backups of your more important files and folders.
      You can select which documents to back up, and the software will track changes and additions to your selected folders, conveniently mirroring any updates so long as the software remains running in the background of your computer.
      The software also offers basic previewing and sharing options, giving you the capacity to send files or folders directly to an email account or popular networking sites such as Facebook, Twitter, or Google Plus.
      A very convenient feature of our Companion Software is the ability to set up a Pogoplug Desktop Drive, which enables direct file management and access from the desktop of your computer.

  • Possibly a silly question but does this $29/year lock in or do we return to the normal rate on the 2nd year onwards? The Terms and Conditions page gives me a "Sorry, page not found." :/

    Somewhat tempted… But I suspect we'll be in for price hikes after the first year is up.

      that is how I read it, if so, $49 is still the cheapest I am aware of for unlimited space.
