It’s time for spring cleaning — but not the kind that involves de-cluttering your closet. We’re talking about de-cluttering your devices and freeing up space by putting your big files, photos, and videos in the cloud. Clean drive, clean mind, right?
Most major platforms provide some sort of cloud storage, but not all storage is as seamless and nicely priced as pCloud. Even before pCloud’s 500 GB free for three months deal, their prices are a bargain across the board. Like most cloud services, pCloud lets you share, collaborate, and sync files across all your devices so that you can access them from anywhere — but there are a few additional perks that make pCloud a pretty stellar pick.

Not only can you play video files from within pCloud, but the video player has a picture-in-picture mode so you can play videos while tackling other tasks on your browser. You can also create cloud playlists and listen to them using the mobile app, which is pretty cool.

Social media backup is one place where pCloud really excels. Your entire life is documented on your socials, right? It’s easy to connect your pCloud account to your social-media accounts and keep all your precious posts safe forever after.

Speaking of safe, pCloud conducts all file transfers over a TLS/SSL encrypted channel to ensure your data remains secure. pCloud also claims to keep five copies of your files on at least three different server locations to keep your data safe and always accessible.
