THANKS
I loaded this on a test machine and boy am I glad I tried it there first. This software and service gas no business being on a machine that contains anything you don’t mind sharing with who knows who. Zoolz security and privacy are absolutely lacking. You have virtually no control over what it grabs off your machine unless you preempt it, which is not acceptable software behavior. It’s fails as a cloud drive, it’s only accessible from the web, that’s pretty limited use.
I actually paid $49 for this and it’s no better for a paying customer. Once installed it doesn’t let you select what is being backed up. it just starts doing it., Theres no indication of progress but its certainly, probably at least a week or two to back up a drive. Who knows about restoring. Weak security, no two factor authentication available. No interface to see files except through at their web site. Don’t make any hardware changes or your screwed. Privacy policy is very unclear.
So i contacted zoolz after getting this and gave my account info to thier customer support. They said i do have 100gb for life. BUT they also said that if i was not to sign in for 30 days then everything will get deleted. only paid customers do not need to sign in every 30 days.

Then we dont need it
Uninstalled Zoolz because on first launch it sucks all of your files away unless you pull the plug immediately, and the privacy policy of Zoolz should be transparent (which it is not).
– you cannot specify what files YOU want to upload
– you cannot use it like a USB pen drive and upload a text or one photo in a folder YOU specify
basically Zoolz is trying to mimic Apple TimeMachine, but we all have it already so no need for it
a cloud service should be like DropBox even though I don’t use DropBox anymore
Opened an account and installed. The software seems to have a very nice interface, beautiful and easy to use. However, I uninstalled it because :
> There does not seem to be a way to NOT automatically backup. You can select how often to do it, but it’s once a day minimum. You can’t open an account, install the software, explore it, learn it, then decide IF and WHEN you want to backup.
> Just exploring the software risks launching the backup, unannounced. I checked one box in my file tree, just to see what it would do. The upload immediately started, without me confirming anything, or even having reached the end of the wizard. Just let it be known that I will never updload anything to the cloud without having encrypted it myself before, regardless of whether the service purports to encrypt the files or not. I immediately stopped the upload (fortunately, this was possible), and my dashboard shows 0 files uploaded. However, it does say that the backup was started, and the next one will occur in one hour.
> Then I logged out, and tried to login again. Now, the service pretends my email or password is wrong, and won’t let me in again. So I can’t even delete my account. And theoretically, there might have been some ultra-confidential files already stolen from my computer and copied somewhere on the other side of the world. This might be linked to the fact that I have an ultra-strong password, with 40 characters and non-ANSI characters. It’s possible that the service accepts it in the first place, but then refuses it because it has understood it wrongly. It happened me before, with other websites. That’s unacceptable for a cloud service.
> The only way to be sure no upload will occur again unless decided by ME is to uninstall the software. And that still does not mean some ultra-confidential data of mine has not already been irreversibly leaked to the world (even if the real chances of this having happened are very small).
> All this means to me that whatever the seduction (free storage, beautiful interface), this service is an absolute no-no. It also explains why I, and other privacy-minded people, are extremely cloud-adverse.

And a few other safety problems :
> When logging off from one place (browser tab, application), you don’t get unlogged from the other places which might be open on your PC (and usually are). A normally-behaved website will disconnect all your tabs as soon as you disconnect one of them.
> I was able to reset my password just by requesting a reset link at my mail address. So, if someone knows my name is Kevin Smith, he can (presumably) guess my email is k.smith@gmail.com (or a few other alternatives), change my own password and hijack my account. Unless, presumably, I have set up a second password (called the encryption password) which cannot be recovered. But this feature is hidden, and it’s likely many people don’t bother to use it.
Re: ” There does not seem to be a way to NOT automatically backup.” Then what you want is online STORAGE, like Dropbox. Online BACKUP is intended to be “set it and forget it”, the same as regular on-site backup software.
I have tried Zoolz 100Gb GiveAway. Fairly easy to use and works great when I tested uploading 500Mb… quite fast too. Many more Gbs to upload later. Webinterface and Desktop communications work fine. Haven’t tried Restore, thus, don’t know the speed…
I have suggested to Zools to have a “Turn-off when done” function as we do backup when going to sleep.
I do recommend this and will share with my wide network

Is it 100GB of Instant Storage, or 100GB of ‘Cold’ storage?
I tried to get this offer, and it is only showing 50GB of Instant Storage and some 14 day trial.
Am I missing something?
I am missing an Android App to sync files. It is inconvenient to logon via web interface, but all offered services are working through the webinterface.
For users with a lot of data, single hard disk drive is sometimes not enough and fills up rapidly forcing the users to delete some data even when they don’t want to. Having more than one physical drives isn’t secure especially if you use it as external drive, it can be lost or stolen along with your data. That’s why everyone nowadays should be using some sort of cloud storage to save their important data. Cloud Storages are risk free (encrypted), and are accessible virtually anywhere around the world with help of the internet.
Zoolz is a long term storage unit, specifically designed to secure and store all your data from external, internal and network drives. According to the developer, it is designed for storing your data on the cloud for a lifetime. Zoolz do not delete your files after a certain period of time, this means your hard drives may die but your data will always live on Zoolz cloud storage.
Overview
The Windows installer is ~11MB in size, and the installation process is quick and straightforward. After installation, you need to login with your Zoolz account to be able to use the cloud storage. On the first run, you can straight away set up a back up and start uploading your data to the cloud. It lets you configure the options of your first back up, and guides you through each step to make it easier to understand.
Pros
User-friendly & Modern UI
The Windows application of Zoolz is pretty straightforward and has a clean and user-friendly UI that is easy to understand. The application may seem to be very simple, but it does contain a lot of features and customization options especially designed for the advanced users.
Customization options
Zoolz application let’s you choose the type of data you want to back up, you can include/exclude different types of files from your backup. You can schedule the backup and set backup frequency to manually, hourly, daily, weekly, and every 5/15/30 min.
Multi-threaded uploads can be turned on, this speeds up the upload rate but uses almost all of the bandwidth available. Although, you have the option to throttle the bandwidth and set a limit to bandwidth usage by the application.
Moreover, you can allow Zoolz to only upload files on a certain type of network i.e WiFi, LAN, or 3G/4G.
Hybrid+ feature
This feature allows you to back up your files to a hard drive on your server, network or an external drive on your PC in addition to your cloud drive. Users can control where the files are stored, and how much disk space Hybrid+ is allowed to use. If you have access to your Hybrid+ location you can restore you files faster and even without an internet connection.
Works on most devices
Zoolz is virtually accessible from any device with an internet connection, it has an application for Windows and Mac and also feature fully-functional applications for devices running iOS and Android. It supports almost all of the Windows versions (Windows 10/8/7/Vista/XP, Server 2003/2008/2012).
Cons
Slow Restore Speeds
Zoolz is definitely not recommended for people who restore there files a lot from the cloud storage. As it says on the developer’s site, Zoolz restore takes 3-5 hours to complete. But if you’re not into restoring files a lot, Zoolz is a great solution and most importantly the cheapest one around.
Conclusion
Zoolz is a reliable and perfect solution for both individuals and companies that want to store huge amounts of data using the cloud platform. It contains numerous options and features to create backups without any difficulties. It is definitely recommended for people looking for cheap storage solution and do not care much about the restore speeds.
