Cloud Drive is similar to a folder you carry in your flash drive everywhere, except for the fact that there is no flash drive! You will have access to your most critical data from any device, in a form as if it is on your local drive, and on your IDrive account.
The moment you modify files, the updates sync to the local drive of computers on which Cloud Drive is active and to your cloud account; thus you can instantly access the latest version of your files locally via a web browser, and download them using the mobile apps too!
Cloud Drive storage does not impact your backup storage. It matches your backup storage limits.
Note: IDrive® Cloud Drive does not support collaborative editing and renaming the same file simultaneously from multiple devices.
Keep files in Sync
Sync your files and folders in real time across all the devices that you link using Cloud Drive, and easily access them from anywhere! Although your mobile apps and web account are always in sync, you can choose to link only those computers on which you wish to keep files in sync.

You can share synced files from your computer, mobile device, or via the web with your friends or associates for collaborative access.
