AppGrade: Cloud Storage Managers

CEBU, Philippines – Managing backups of photos, videos and other electronic data kept on cloud storage accounts can be a daunting task - especially when there are more than one cloud storage account.

If you're among the many who maintain backups across different cloud storage servers, following are two good cloud storage management suites to simplify the process of managing one's cloud-hosted data.

Air Explorer

Lightweight and easy to use, "Air Explorer" is essentially a cloud service data manager for Windows-driven PCs, offering support for different cloud service providers - from OneDrive to Google Drive, Dropbox to Box.net.

The suite helps users conveniently transfer or share cloud-hosted data across different cloud storage accounts, as well as readily share online-hosted files via unique web links.

With Air Explorer, users no longer have to manually log in to the different login portals of the cloud service providers, as the suite is designed to do away with these rudimentary steps - giving users quick control and access to their online-hosted files within the suite.

With extended features like quick search functions, support for thumbnail views and the option to pause and continue ongoing downloads, Air Explorer is a practical utility for electronic consumers who want to keep their online-stored data organized and updated.

Globe Cloud

At its core, "Globe Cloud" is one of Globe Telecom's new app-and-service offerings - developed to fit with the lifestyles of today's constantly-on-the-go electronic consumer.

Using the service's mobile application (which is available in versions for Android and iOS), prepaid and postpaid Globe subscribers can easily make online backups of their phone contacts and messages, as well as store photos, videos and audio clips to a secure cloud location.

But beyond being a specific- only-to -mobile offering, users can also access Globe Cloud-stored files via a web-based application using their favorite web browser - as well as access files they've stored on cloud service offerings (like Dropbox, photos from Facebook, and Google Picasa accounts).

In terms of its built-in storage volume, Globe Cloud comes with free 1 GB worth of storage, with additional subscription-based fees for extra storage volume options for prepaid and postpaid Globe subscribers.
