For the last few months we have talked about different services for saving files, we have even looked for interesting tricks to store these files.If the world around us is eminently digital, we are concerned that all those thousands of photos that remind us of it disappear.
But after much putting on and taking off, creating accounts and leaving them deserted, we have delved into the best services and chosen eleven. Here are the eleven definitive alternatives , essential for living this digital heyday No stress due to lack of space.You'll appreciate it some day.
GOOGLE PHOTOS
We have already spoken on more than one occasion of different services to keep our photos in the cloud, even using the "trick" of keeping them on social networks such as Instagram or Pinterest.But when it comes to photos there is no better system than Google Photos.It is completely free and offers unlimited storage.
In small print: if you want to keep the original format you will have to adjust to the 15GB of the client .If you accept that you compress them, then if it is unlimited.In any case we are talking about a System compatible with files up to 16MP and 1080p resolution .
But the virtue of this system lies in its clean and simple interface, in its assistant that remembers important events and appointments, while presenting alternatives to your best photos, creating GIFs with them or editing videos with own or random selections. It is the definitive service for the devotee of social photos .

APPLE ICLOUD
If you are a user of any current Apple device, be it an iPod, iPhone, iPad or iMac, do not hesitate.Thanks to its full integration with iOS from the first minute, iCloud is an alternative to consider.The best part is that those 5GB available for applications-Calendar, Numbers, Pages or Keynote-also serve to accumulate files on unsupported systems.That is, you can start working on an iPad and continue on PC, exporting the format.
Of course, those free 5GB are quite stingy.Rates bet on quite popular prices: for one euro per month 50GB extra, for € 3.99 or £ 4.49 we would have 200GB extra, and if we opt for 9.99 euros per month we would access a 2TB storage, with 128-bit AES protection onwards, file-by-file encryption and the 256-bit standard reserved for keychain passwords.

PCLOUD
For 3.99 euros (500GB) or 7.99 euros per month (2TB) within its economic annual plans, this service is committed to maximum security, for local encryption on the system-the service employees themselves they cannot read the files without our access code-using 256-bit AES encryption for folders and 4096-bit RSA encryption for master keys.
The space options are complemented with lifetime plans of € 125 for 500GB and € 250 for 2TB , plus a referral system similar to Dropbox for free customers (10GB) in which offers 1GB for each friend recommendation validated and other incentives such as 3GB for completing a user tutorial.That is, in total you can achieve 20GB without paying a cent .A fairly reasonable price, right?

ZOOLZ
Exclusively for companies-in fact it does not allow linking Gmail or Yahoo Mail-type accounts, this service is committed to current needs: facial recognition to detect photos, stores the metadata (EXIF) of the device and classifies by colors or shooting styles-panoramics, sunsets, etc.- Its free storage only allows SD quality, but its version of 1TB for € 9.99 amounts to 4K resolutions .
This is perhaps one of the best "unknown options", since everything runs under Amazon's AWS platform, considered one of the safest clouds, and its prices are very competitive for its space and security-account offer with 256-bit AES end-to-end encryption -.

MOZY
There are services that, although they do not enjoy the popularity of the previous ones, present interesting alternatives.Such is the case of Mozy, essential not for its 2GB , but for being a complement to the aforementioned and thought especially for peripheral services -Linux computers, for example-.
Imagine you have three teams: the husband's laptop, the son's desktop and another wife's convertible.For this type of scenario Mozy offers 125GB plans for 7.99 euros . Very solvent equipment synchronization option , which solves problems at a stroke if, for example, three friends share editable audio files or things like that.
As for encryption, users can be secure with a 256-bit AES file encryption system and a 448-bit Blowfish master key .

ONEDRIVE
During its first years of life, when it was still called SkyDrive, OneDrive was an interesting alternative to the growing Google ecosystem, but what it offers today is one of the most robust services available, both on PC and MAC.invites you to pay a few euros, but your Premium offers are, say, justified.
With plans like Office 365 Premium they offer 1TB of private space and synchronization in the cloud with all the devices we want , not necessarily under the Windows 10-operating system for a payment of 59.99 euros a year-.Sumar Office 365 is to have the office suite par excellence.
For new users of the Windows Surface family, who share captures, notes and edit files on the fly, integrating OneNote with the entire Office package is a vital help: because it's not so much about having our life in the cloud anymore, but of having a comprehensive service .

QUICKPIC + FLICKR
If you still want to have more space for your photos, the Cheetah Mobile team enjoys great prestige in the mobile ecosystem and it is thanks to options such as its synchronization with 500px or your referral offers with friends-up reach 1TB-.
Its prestige grew when it became the ideal substitute for the old Android photo gallery.Those users who did not want to make the leap to Google Photos, perhaps because of manners, went to this model, less cumbersome and clean interface. Your welcome 2GB serves as a back-up for contingencies , but that urgency can be solved by a friend code granted by the aforementioned terabyte.Forever.
But the really interesting thing comes from Flickr, a very professional service that boasts 13,000 million photos and a space of 1TB per customer .No need to pay anything.Those thousand gigabytes come without Small print: you can view, edit, share or create folders with different levels of security and user rights.

AMAZON DRIVE
Little by little, Amazon has managed to position itself not so much as a timely hosting but as an integral service.Yes, you may want to buy computer pots, but don't forget that much of your business comes from selling space on the Internet.To your first 5GB free-for backups, photos, videos, etc.-all royalties are added derived from Amazon Prime; for example, its Cloud Player service, on which we can integrate a playlist of 250 songs and enjoy them whenever we want.
It also serves as a backup for applications: if you buy a new terminal and want to have the same list of applications, you just have to synchronize the account.And the same can be said of the PC applications.And, like Google, Amazon AI has facial recognition and a photo optimization system.In terms of compatibility, the executable is available on both iOS, Android, Windows and Mac .It is not uncommon for its rivals tremble at these strengths.

BOX
Ignored by many, Box is a comprehensive service to share files online .Like everyone else, you will say.The difference is that BOX works for Microsoft, IBM, Google supports in financial services, IT, marketing, press editors or hospital databases .In other words, we are facing one of the best possible services.
Your business plans range from € 4 per month for 100GB and 2GB files, to business models for 3 clients and up .Your individual plan has 10GB free with a limit of 250 MB per file and a Pro offer of € 8 per month per 100GB.Its core value lies, of course, in its huge ecosystem, in which we can synchronize dozens of computers and have a maintenance and encryption of files under the standard of 256 bits .

RSAPLAY
The years have treated many hosting services that have been disappearing fatally, but RSA stands firm thanks to two maxims: privacy and full coverage.
We are not facing a service that integrates with many systems but it has two strips that are two real crazy things for the times: 250GB free, with the option of doing streaming so much of image as of video -in tiff, pdf, jpg, mpg, mp4, avi and mkv formats-and another service of 100 euros for unlimited storage for a lifetime.We have not been able to verify how infinite it is but if we can watch our favorite movie directly from the remote server.
As for security, we have activation codes file by file: each file has two keys, one public and one private, with 2048-bit RSA encryption .The rest depends on the user: we choose with whom to share.
