How is Pogoplug different from other cloud storage services?
Pogoplug provides a Personal Cloud you can touch. When you buy a Pogoplug device, your files stay safe at home or the office while you access them from any browser, smartphone or tablet. Your private cloud has unlimited storage, with the option to grow as you go by adding more or larger hard drives. Pogoplug's secure and private cloud storage solutions include Pogoplug devices, Pogoplug Family, Pogoplug Team and Pogoplug PC.
How does Pogoplug protect my files?
Pogoplug creates automatic, real-time backups of all your important files with Pogoplug’s free companion software. Simply download the software and back up all your computers to your Pogoplug device.
Does this mean I'm uploading my files to a third party?
When you back up to a Pogoplug device, your files stay on your hard drive. Your Pogoplug lets you access, share, stream and back up your content, and you host your data, not a third party. However, if you want your critical files archived in case of disaster at home, you can upload them to Pogoplug’s secure cloud for offsite storage with
Pogoplug Family or
Pogoplug Team.
How does a Pogoplug device work with other Pogoplug products and services?
Pogoplug products and services are designed to meet both single- and multi-user needs. As a single user, you can purchase a Pogoplug device and infinitely expand your cloud by attaching more or larger hard drives. For multiple users, Pogoplug Family offers backup of all your family’s files, as well as offsite storage and extended tech support options for greater protection. For small to medium-sized businesses, Pogoplug Team provides group backup, offsite storage, extended tech support options, and a multi-user branded interface for accessing and sharing files.
