[Lex Computer & Tech Group/LCTG] Anyone using PCloud backup service?

[Drew King]

Right now I'm paying $7.00 a month to do unlimited backup on only one 
computer and P cloud would let me do all of my devices for $4 a month or 
$8 a month approximately to get either 500 gigabytes or two terabytes of 
combined storage.

I need to back up 2 Windows computers, 2 clouds, 2 Android devices, and 
a Linux VM.

I can pocket $3 a month and back up all of my devices, whereas backblaze 
is limited to one.

I'm very curious to see how granular the software is on the Android 
platform because I have an Android tablet with 128 gigabytes of storage 
and i want to be able to select what i want backed up.

Right now, I'm syncing my Google Drive and OneDrive with each other. 
Insurance in case I lose access to one of the two cloud sources for any 
reason.

The 2TB plan would let be backup both to Pcloud, eliminating my need to 
sync.

I'm figuring it's time to update my backup system. Not everything is 
getting backed up.
