JustCloud Features/Benefits

JustCloud not only provides scheduled online backup, but a whole lot more – features such as file syncing, private file sharing, file versioning, and remote access to your files from any internet enabled device – all while utilizing 256-bit file encryption to ensure your data is safe and secure. With JustCloud you get true unlimited backup without any type of file size or bandwidth restrictions being placed on you.

You get both Backup and Sync Functionality: JustCloud provides a scheduled backup that will backup your files to a safe off-site location but it also provides you with a sync folder(10mg by default) that will allow you to select files that you can sync between multiple computers. No more manually syncing files to multiple computers or carrying around flash drives! It’s as easy as dragging and dropping a file into your sync folder, or right clicking on the file and selecting the "Add to Sync Folder". Plus you get both functions for the same low price.

True Unlimited Backup: They are one of the very few companies offering a true unlimited(storage) backup. With JustCloud there are no file size limitations, and no bandwidth throttling. You still get unlimited storage starting at $4.95/month. Other companies such as Carbonite and IDrive will either implement bandwidth throttling that will slow down your backups, or file size limitations, or both on their unlimited backup products. Other companies such as Mozy have eliminated their "unlimited" backup option all together.

Private File Sharing: JustCloud provides the ability to share files, photos, folders and a whole lot more with family and friends by inviting them via Facebook, Twitter, email or even a custom link you create yourself. Collaboration just got a whole lot easier. JustCloud plans to have public file sharing available December 15, 2011 to complete their file sharing capabilities.

File Versioning: By default JustCloud will keep 7 days worth of versions of a file for you, but this can be changed to 30 days or unlimited if you wish. So if you accidentally delete a file… no worries you are covered with JustCloud.

Web based file viewing: Don’t have access to your PC but need to view a file? No problem, you can access your files from any web browser or smart phone using JustCloud’s mobile website.

Excellent 24/7 365 Day a Year Customer Support: JustCloud is shooting for the best customer support team in the business. They are available to help customers with any advice and support they need. Currently customer support is available via email, their knowledge base, and video tutorials. They are setting up a new customer call center in December of 2011, with full phone support expected to online and operational shortly there-after.

No File Type Restrictions: JustCloud gives you the ability to backup any file you choose, regardless of what type of file it is. This means that you can backup things like music, video, pictures, documents, executables, graphics and any more you could possibly think of.

Secure and Safe: JustCloud uses industry standard 128-bit file encryption for transferring and storing your data. This is the same technology used by banks for financial transactions. They also utilize full server mirroring – which means their servers are duplicated to another completely separate data center. This protects you in case of physical disasters or power outages at the primary JustCloud server location.

Easily Restore Files: There is no benefit to having a backup if you can’t restore your files when you need to. With JustCloud restoring files is simple and easy. You can restore any files from both the Control Panel and desktop application in just a few clicks. Restoring from the desktop application is as easy as clicking on the "Restore Files" button – at which time you will be asked to which computer you want to restore(if you have backed up multiple computers), then you will be able to browse through the backed up files and folders to select the ones you wish to restore. Finally you will be asked to select the location(s) you want to restore the files/folders to or even create a new location if you want. At this point the restore process begins.

AnyTime Money Back Guarantee: With any of the plans, you can purchase with complete confidence knowing that if you need to cancel your subscription, JustCloud will issue a pro-rated refund of any un-used months. This sets them apart in the online backup and storage community. Not many merchants provide this type of refund policy.

Dislikes

No Support for Mac or Linux: Sorry Mac and Linux users… JustCloud currently only supports Window’s based operating systems. The MAC and Linux versions will be available December 15, 2011, however!

No Mobile App’s: Currently JustCloud doesn’t have app’s specifically designed for use on any of the mobile devices such as the iPhone, Android or tablet devices. They also don’t support syncing to those devices at this time. Currently access via these devices is limited to using JustCloud’s mobile website. Although the workaround of the mobile website does allow for viewing and working with files, we do hope to see mobile app’s being released from JustCloud at some point in the near future.

Currently No Phone or Chat Customer Support: Currently the only customer support available is via email or by using their video tutorials and online knowledge base. Although their email support is 24/7 and very responsive, live chat support would be helpful. They are expecting to have a new call center with Phone support operational by the end of the year, 2011.
