Sticker shock over monthly cloud bills is a thing, and FolderFort has the nerve to join in on that torture with an offer even more attractive than the usual suspects. The 2TB Cloud Storage Pro plan from the company was today listed at 83% off, meaning that one can pay just $119.99 once (as opposed to its listed price of $749) for storage via a browser with unlimited users, easy sharing, and encryption backed by Backblaze infrastructure.
For those who are shuttling files among various services competing hard for subscribers, or paying per-user fees to access collaboration features, this is presented as a simple home base: upload quickly, preview in the browser, and share links that provide public or restricted access — all without a single piece of installed software on Mac, Windows, or mobile.
What You Get With the 2TB FolderFort Cloud Plan
FolderFort’s present product is based on three functions: capacity, convenience, and teamwork. You’ve got 2TB of space — enough for a few hundred thousand photos at an average 4MB per photo or hours and hours of high-bitrate 4K footage — directly managed from a modern web browser. Drag-and-drop uploads? Yes. You can also preview images, videos, spreadsheets, and PDFs without downloading.
Where it departs from many mainstream clouds is collaboration economics — unlimited users and workspaces are included, so adding family members or even a small group won’t trigger new seat costs. If your storage requirements shift, the company says upgrades are immediate and support can manage downgrades — good for project-based loads.
How the FolderFort 2TB Plan Price Compares
The headline is the 83% discount to $119.99; the context is anything but that rate.
Take a look at some of the 2TB plans that most big providers are selling. In short: iCloud’s 2TB tier costs $9.99 monthly; Google One’s 2TB plan is $99.99 a year; and Dropbox Plus goes for $11.99 per month with annual billing. That means:
- iCloud 2TB: $9.99/month (the same as $119.99 in 12 months).
- Google One 2TB: $99.99/year is more upfront-friendly, but by year two you’ll have already surpassed FolderFort’s one-time cost.
- Dropbox Plus 2TB: $11.99/month will recoup FolderFort’s single cost in roughly 10 months, after which fees persist.
Cost of ownership matters if you intend to park data for years. For many of you — photographers collecting RAWs, agencies storing client assets, or families consolidating backups — the math is that a one-time purchase pays off if the features and reliability match.
Security and Reliability Credentials for FolderFort
FolderFort’s infrastructure and encryption is supported by Backblaze, a cloud provider famous for releasing transparent hard drive reliability reports. Files are stored with AES encryption at rest, which is a standard that NIST recognizes and is used throughout industry. The plan comes with a 99.99% uptime guarantee — kind of like what business-class services say they offer — and around 52 minutes of potential downtime per year if you pull that off, in line with what many business-grade services claim to deliver.
Access is via a browser, so you can get to your files from almost any device. That sidesteps the maintenance overhead of syncing apps, which can be welcome when it comes to locked-down corporate machines or family devices that you don’t want always-on syncing eating into your bandwidth and drive space.
Day-to-Day Usability for Everyday FolderFort Use
Power users will love small quality-of-life touches: near-instant uploads, link-based sharing with public or restricted access, and in-browser previews that make it easier to avoid downloading something you don’t need. Unlimited users and workspaces let you throw together a client folder, dole out access to a contractor, maintain a private family archive — all without managing mountains of paid seats or accounts.
Practically, 2TB serves as the sweet spot for anyone with mixed-media libraries. A wedding photographer might maintain a rolling library of recent shoots and proofs online in order to quickly share them with clients, for example, and push older sets to cold storage. A small team can centralize their design files, spreadsheets, and video drafts — all while staying away from version sprawl across email and chat.
What to Verify Before You Switch Cloud Providers
Two questions to answer before consolidating: export and scale. Ensure that your current service supports easy bulk exports so you can transition cleanly, and be sure to check out FolderFort’s upgrade paths if your library expands past 2TB. Also ensure sharing controls work for your workflow — public links are convenient, but private links with permissions are crucial for sensitive work.
It may also be worth evaluating your backup posture. Best practices within the industry, including the 3-2-1 backup rule referred to by many security professionals, suggest at least one offsite copy. A cloud plan like this can be your offsite copy — or even a primary hub, as long as you also keep another locally stored copy for redundancy.
Bottom Line on FolderFort’s 2TB Cloud Storage Deal
If you’re tired of subscriptions and have no interest in deep ecosystem perks like bundled office suites, the 83% off discount for FolderFort sounds hard to pass up. If you can commit to their browser-first method, or just get everything backed up and then never use it again, 2TB of storage shared across unlimited users is a one-time $119.99 well spent — especially when you know it’s backed by Backblaze-level encryption.
