Cryptee vs IDrive

Cryptee provides cloud storage for photos and videos alongside an encrypted editor for documents, journals, and notes. It says files are encrypted on the device with AES-256 before upload, using keys the company cannot access. Photos supports hashtags, typo-tolerant search, EXIF data, RAW files, favorites, ghost albums, and encrypted sharing links. The editor handles Markdown, Evernote imports, DOCX, PDF, and ODT files, with encrypted PDF exports, offline use, RTL languages, tables, and KaTeX math. Cryptee says its software and cryptography are open source and that signup requires no personal information. It also says it does not track or log user activity or serve advertisements, and keeps user data on its own infrastructure in Europe. The service runs on web, Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android; its browser-based progressive web app can be installed and used offline. The free plan includes 100 MB. Paid storage begins at 10 GB for €3.00 per month.

IDrive backs up computers, mobile devices, servers, and NAS devices to one account, with apps and access for Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, Android, and the web. Its free Basic plan provides 10 GB of storage without a credit card; paid plans start at $0.25 per month for IDrive Mini, which includes 100 GB for one user. Backup and restore options cover files, devices, earlier versions, deleted files, disk images, and IDrive Express. The service retains up to 30 earlier versions of each backed-up file, and Snapshots provide point-in-time recovery. True Archiving keeps files in the account until you delete them or run Archive Cleanup. IDrive says it encrypts data in transit and at rest using 256-bit AES, with private keys optional, and that stored versions and Snapshots support recovery after ransomware incidents. Add-ons provide backup for Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Salesforce, Dropbox, and Box. Team and Business plans include multi-user administration. Support is available 24/7 by live chat, email, and phone.
