CrushFTP vs pCloud

CrushFTP is a file transfer server for secure transfers across a range of operating systems. Administrators can manage users, preferences, reports and plugins in a web browser. Supported secure protocols include FTPES, FTPS, SFTP, SCP and HTTPS; authentication options include LDAP, RADIUS, SAML and OAuth, with MFA/OTP validation available. Files can be encrypted in transit and at rest using PGP. The server connects to storage and services including S3, Google Drive, Azure, Dropbox, OneDrive, SharePoint, Box, SMB and Hadoop. Enterprise tools include scheduling, monitoring, automated reporting, DMZ capability and high availability through session replication. CrushSync synchronizes files in real time and can send changed portions of large files with compression. The web interface supports resumable transfers, WebDAV clients for iOS and Android, thumbnails, slideshows and movie playback. The full normal-license download has a 30-day trial; the site says only CrushFTP 11 is currently supported. Plans include a Small Business option at $70 a month, listed as a perpetual license.

pCloud is cloud storage with apps for Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, and Windows, plus access through my.pCloud.com. Its free plan provides up to 10 GB, and no credit card is required to start. Storage can extend to 2 TB. The service can back up phone photos and videos automatically and keep important files available offline. Users can share files and folders with passwords and expiration dates, and file versioning is available. Files in the Crypto folder use client-side encryption and zero-knowledge privacy. Users can choose storage in the United States or European Union. Business plans add access levels, teams, shared folders, comments, activity logs, and recovery of file versions from up to 180 days earlier. They also support branded sharing links with a logo, cover, and message. Business storage is GDPR-compliant and ISO-27001 certified. The Business 3 Users / 3 TB plan costs $29.97 a month and includes a 30-day free trial.
