GlobalDrive Reviewer's Comments

GlobalDrive ranks among the best online storage services on the Internet. This well–rounded online storage service offers practical features, reliable security and a user–friendly interface.

If you’re looking for a smaller storage space, 1 to 5 GB, GlobalDrive has competitive prices. However, if you need more than 5 GB, it’s an expensive monthly fee. Twenty–five GB is $180 a month and their largest account is 100 GB for $680 a month.


Feature Set:  

Accounts also come with sub–accounts. You can choose from different sub–account packages depending on how many sub–accounts you need. The more sub–accounts you have, the more the subscription costs. Sub–accounts are good for virtual offices and other instances where a number of people need to access and work on the same files.

GlobalDrive has a free, downloadable application called the Virtual Disk Drive. This application works just like a hard drive except the information is stored online. Once the application is installed, you can access the files and save files to the drive just as you would any other drive.


Security:  

GlobalDrive uses SSL encryption to ensure your data is safe during transfer and storage. The accounts are password protected.


Storage Space/Price:  

GlobalDrive is competitive for smaller storage spaces, up to 5 GB. For larger storage spaces, they are expensive—25 GB is $180, 50 GB is $350 and 100 GB is $680.


Ease of Use:  

The software is easy to use and integrates well with other programs. It acts just like another drive on your computer.


Help/Support:  

GlobalDrive provides a user manual and FAQs to orientate you to the service and answer common question. You can contact customer support by email.


Summary:  

We are impressed with how well the Global Drive Virtual Disk Drive integrates with the Windows desktop and applications. It’s as easy to use as a jump drive or other storage drive. The only downside is the steeper monthly fees for large storage spaces.
