prismdrive.com 

It says up to 10Gbps upload speed. In reality, it took me half an hour to upload one, 7Mb mp3 song

Bottom line up front: Upload is really slow and very unreliable.

I got a really good offer for lifetime access to Prismdrive. It was so good that I decided just to risk it.

I've been experimenting with Prismdrive off and on for over a year. Whilst I have managed to upload some pretty large files it is a slow, error prone and painful process.

I recently switched to using cryptomator to encrypt uploads with the added advantage that it makes small files, which should be easier and faster to upload.

Best upload speeds I've seen are under 300kb/s (estimated not methodically measured) and that although I have internet access with around 40mb/s upload speed and ping times usually well below 50ms.

I've been able to upload 1.4GB folders - though it took 3 attempts.

Attempts to upload 13.5GB folders failed consistently at about 1.8GB of upload - I suspect there is a limit hard coded.

I worked with a macbook using different browsers (chrome and safari) to login.

I tried uploads at odd hours of the day and night, including especially times with low traffic volumes all to no effect.

My advice: just do not use prismdrive.

It appears this site is run by a guy named Prasanth Dwivedi who used Storj cloud as his storage provider. He bought a limited amount of space off them, uses an API to link the cloud to his prism drive website, and collects money from poor people through lifetime subscriptions until he runs out space on his Storj account. Don’t buy unless you want to lose your money.

As of this date, it looks like his Storj account was closed and access to all uploaded files is lost.

No Support, No Service. I have been trying to get an issue resolved for MONTHS without any follow up from them.

I understand why they offer a lifetime subscription at a very low cost--it's because it will take a lifetime to upload even a very few documents. This is the worst purchase that I have ever made and strongly recommend against purchasing it.

Please avoid. No app so it can setup auto uploads. Deceptive if not downright illegal refund policy. I got f*cked.

Not a very user friendly product. I cannot use it for my intended usage of storing photos and videos and was a waste of money

Worked until I had 4.6 tb uploaded, now every upload hangs on "upload indexing " and never upload. This started about 4 months ago. I filed a complaint with the BBB.

They take your money and never answer multiple emails in this regard.

It's been a year since I paid $89 for a 20TB "lifetime" storage and I can't believe that this company is still around. For that fact alone, I will give it 2 stars (and not 1) because MAYBE the company is still trying to gather funds and at least attempt to stand up on it's feet. But having said that, if the company wasn't able to provide a decent service, it should have not opened up to the public. Thus far, seems like and feels like a scam. By the time I finished writing these two lines, I am rethinking whether I give it two starts or just one.

One it is.

Files take about 700 years to upload and then only about 60% actually show up once your done. Even worse the 60% is completely random. You would have to go through files one by one to ever know which ones arent there. I regret this purchase immensely.

It sucks!! I can't even upload a 1TB for over a year. Avoid at all prices - complete waste of time and money.

There is no way this is a real company, my guess is, it is some amateur programmer living in his mom's basement. Other than being able to upload a few pics, nothing else works, any video over 50mb which is about 12 seconds will not upload and gets stuck at indexing. Don't waste your time with this garbage, fortunately for me it was a sale price so I'm out only $30 bucks but I would not recommend you even spend that much on it!!!

I AM HUMAN... AND I AM POSTING MY EXERIENCE WITH PRISM DRIVE. I ALSO READ REVIEWS WHICH RATED THEM A (1).

HOWEVER, THERE ARE THINGS OUT HERE THAT GOES BACK TO THE BASICS...THAT IS PATIENCE...

Prismdrive is a scam. Can't believe that I fell for this garbage. $79 out the window. There is no service, doesn't work on ANY device.

Sucks. I bought 20TB for life yesterday and it docent work. I can never see how much space i have + all uploads stalls at the upload indexing + i can't delete folders. Nothing works. I left it doing night and when i woke up it was still indexing :(
I tried testing on 3 different computers and it was the same on all. I hope they get back to me because other wise i will post every where online that you shouldn't purchase PrismDrive + make a dispute on Paypal where i paid.
I have tried today to get a refund, cancel the order but its very hard to get anyone to replay to me, lets see what happen.
Don't buy this if you want something that works.

Update.
I tried again today several times and upload still dont work. Upload finish but upload indexing will stay indexing for ever. I left it 8 hours last night and it was still indexing and no files was in my server.
Also still can't delete folders or i can not see my server storage. I have 20TB
This is the must bad service i have sean for many years. Normally things like this just works. I have tried many other services and 98% just works but not PrismDrive. Not even able to upload one file to share with a client :(

Friends, I tell you the fact that Prismdrive.com is actually previously Thunderdrive.io ( both are from same scammer team). As Thunderdrive is disappeared similarly Prismdrive.com will be with our precious data. So be aware .....

If you purchased Prismdrive storage via StackSocial you should contact them to let them know. That I do now and they asked PrismDrive to fix the issue with my uploads and confirm I have 40 TB in my account to use.
PrismDrive doesn't have costumer service as human and no one will check your request.

This is absolute crap. I have never been able to upload files completely for past year. No way to determine the status of uploads once navigated away from upload page. There is no option to create support tickets

I purchased a voucher and then upgraded to the 20 TB option, but got an error when trying to setup my account. I have tried contacting the company several different ways with no luck. I keep getting a message they will contact me when they are back online. Even though I reached out during business hours. I am continuing to get the run around from their automated system.
