Why upload.am

Why a family plan

Private by default

Everyone has their own login. Others do not see your files unless you share.

One pool

Storage and limits are shared, so one person’s big video library does not need a separate plan.

Child profiles

No public links and no remote download. Messages and files stay inside the family, and the owner sees names, sizes and dates.

Family album

One shared folder for photos and videos that everyone on the plan can add to.

upload.am vs. a typical file hosting service

Most free file hosts give you one thing: a link. upload.am is cloud storage and backup with built-in secure file sharing built in. Here is the difference for this feature:

On the free plan upload.am Typical file host
Separate private logins on one plan Included Limited
Shared storage pool Included Limited
Child profiles with restricted sharing Included Not available
Family album for photos and video Included Limited
Backups from Windows and Android apps Included Not available
More than a file sharing link

Cloud storage, backup and secure sharing in one free account

upload.am is cloud storage and backup with secure file sharing built in: a cloud cabinet that keeps your files, a backup service that protects your folders and photos, a sync service that keeps your computer and your cabinet identical, and sharing controls (password, expiry, download limits) on top. One login, one storage pool, one set of links.

Cloud storage

25 GB free, folders, search, previews, versions and trash in your online file manager.

Backup service

The Windows app backs up the folders you choose. The Android app backs up photos, video, audio and contacts.

Sync service

Live sync in the Windows app keeps a folder identical on your PC and in your cabinet, including files added from the web.

Secure file sharing

Password, download limit, expiry, group links, Inbox and Drop Rooms.
