About
Cloud storage without the monthly bill. Move files from Dropbox, Google Drive and more to a computer you already own. Uncloud handles the complicated parts. There are already powerful self-hosted storage tools for people who enjoy running servers. Uncloud is for everyone else. The goal is simple: make owning your cloud feel as easy as subscribing to one.
Features
- Problem
- Moving files from cloud services can feel like a major project.
- How it works
- Guides users through setup and copying files from Dropbox and other cloud services; Google Drive files can be downloaded and added.
- Result
- Households can bring their files to storage they control without a complicated server setup.
- Why
- Reduce the effort involved in switching while leaving the original files in place.
- Problem
- Household members need distinct, private file spaces.
- How it works
- Provides separate accounts and files for household members, with unlimited members and devices included.
- Result
- Each person has their own space on the household’s host computer.
- Why
- Support shared household infrastructure without combining everyone’s private files.
- Problem
- Subscription storage plans can create recurring costs and storage tiers.
- How it works
- Uses the capacity of the host computer and connected drives, with no storage tiers or per-person charges; the product is offered for a one-time price.
- Result
- Storage capacity depends on available local and connected storage rather than a monthly plan.
- Why
- Let families use storage they already own and add a drive when they need more room.
- Problem
- Files may be needed away from home.
- How it works
- Provides remote access through the host computer; the host must be on and awake for round-the-clock access.
- Result
- Household members can access files from elsewhere, subject to host availability.
- Why
- Make home-stored files reachable without requiring a separate hosted storage plan.
- Problem
- Setting up a home cloud can require technical server administration.
- How it works
- Offers a download, install, and file-move flow for Mac, PC, and Linux, with setup described as taking five minutes or less.
- Result
- A household can get started with existing hardware and storage.
- Why
- Make a computer the household already owns usable as its cloud host without a server project.
