Allows you to easily backup or share you files and folders
BigCloud Archives is a smart new way to manage, backup, sync and share your files across different computers and operating systems.
Use BigCloud Archives for free on any number of computers, and try out a low-cost subscription to BigCloud Archives Online to use our secure cloud storage solution to easily create online backups, sync folders between home and the office, share public archives with other subscribers, and more!
In a nutshell, BigCloud lets you create Archives in which you can store any number of files. You can store all your files in one big archive, or create lots of archives with more specific groups of files. Before building your archives there are a few things to be considered.
An archive is associated with a folder on your computer - you can automatically sync that folder with the archive, otherwise it is still the "logical root" for files you import. So you might, for example, associate one archive with your "Pictures" directory and another with your "Documents" directory. By default your home directory is used as the root.
An archive is stored in another folder on your computer. You might want to store some archives on an external disk to protect you from failure of your main disk without keeping a separate backup, or to easily move between computers. You might want to store some other archives on your primary disk, for example so they are always with you on your laptop, and back them up to an external disk or to a Cloud.
An archive may or may not be encrypted - an encrypted archive requires a passphrase to access any files within it. So you might choose to store sensitive personal information, tax documents, business plans, etc. in encrypted archives to keep them as secure as possible. If you forget the passphrase for an archive, there is no way to recover the files within it - if there were, it wouldn't be so secure, would it?
An archive can be backed up to a Public Cloud, which makes it available to other BigCloud users who know (or can guess) the Cloud's name. In that case, you would only want to keep files in that archive that you have the desire and right to share with other people.
An archive is backed up as a whole - one way you might think about that is to keep Music and Movie files in one archive on an external disk, or which you back up to storage on your local network, which is cheaper and faster than backing up to a Cloud.
You might want to create a separate archive backed up to a private Cloud for work files that you want to keep in sync between PCs at home and work. You might also create a separate archive of family photos backed up to a public Cloud so you can share it with other members of your family.
BigCloud gives you a simple "Sync" command that downloads any changes from a backup that were added from another computer, uploads all your changes to the backup location, and also performs folder synchronization if you have enabled it for an archive.
Here are some key features of "BigCloud Archives":
· Automatically organize your files by type and date, with document summaries and previews of images and PDF files.
· Search the full contents of your files, making it easier than ever to find what you're looking for.
· Backup to and sync via local or network disks, or an online Cloud with a low-cost subscription
· Optional AES encryption guarantees security of files on both your computer and the cloud
· Free software download runs on Windows, Mac and Linux operating systems with Java installed
· Unparalleled privacy and security - you can never be bothered by ads or intrusive inspection of your private files.
What's New in This Release:
· Overhaul navigation UI, add back/forward/home, refresh and backup buttons
· Import email & attachments from .eml or .mbox files
· Improve reliability of cloud operations
· Numerous minor UI enhancements
