Tresorit review

Tresorit is the business-grade option on this list, and its personal plans inherit that focus. The company says files are encrypted on your device before upload, so no one besides you and the people you share with can read them, including Tresorit's own admins. The personal range runs from Personal Lite with 50 GB, a 2 GB file size limit and two devices, through Essential with 1 TB and ten devices, to Pro with 4 TB and advanced permission controls. A free plugin sends encrypted attachments from Gmail or Outlook, and the mobile app adds encrypted camera upload, two-factor authentication and an app passcode. Devices can be wiped remotely. The trade-offs are cost and limits: there is no permanent free tier, the 14-day trial requires payment information, and file history is counted in versions rather than days. Tresorit's pricing page showed euros from our location, so the USD price is pending.
