Cloud that connects

Cloud that connects

It went up to the cloud!” “And you can’t get it down from the cloud?” “Nobody understands the cloud! Simply put, one can store a good amount of data across devices in a single logical pool, a virtual cloud if you will, that lets one access the data from anywhere. Most of our smartphones come equipped with native cloud storage apps, such as the Google Drive for Android, iCloud for iPhones, and OneDrive for Windows. Even today, it remains the best online cloud storage option, offering a wide range of cross-platform support — Android, Mac OSX, Windows, iOS, even Linux and Blackberry. Box Box works as most other cloud storage solutions do and has been around longer than Dropbox.
