MEGA Review

MEGA is a very popular storage service, but there are some doubts about its reputation. However, it seems to have excellent security measures. The only downside is that its generous free cloud storage offer might not last beyond the first month.

Back in 2013, MEGA was created as a replacement for the notorious Megaupload, which had its own share of issues. The person behind MEGA was Kim Dotcom, known for controversies. After Megaupload’s servers were taken down in Hong Kong, MEGA was established in New Zealand, focusing on user data security and privacy.

Despite all the controversies, MEGA remains a highly secure cloud service, especially if you need lots of free storage space. Their free plan offers a massive 20GB of cloud storage, making it one of the best free options out there.

However, MEGA’s paid plans are quite expensive, and the amount of storage they provide may not justify the price. There are better alternatives that offer more storage at a lower cost. One such option is Sync.com, which provides top-notch security at a better price. You can check out our review of Sync.com for more details.
