Internxt vs pCloud
The lifetime duel: the young challenger bundles encryption into its pay-once plans, the veteran has thirteen years of staying power.
Internxt
Lifetime plans with zero-knowledge encryption included.
pCloud
Pay once, store forever. The lifetime plan that started it all.
Our verdict
On paper Internxt wins: lifetime 2 TB around $299 (often far less in promotions) with zero-knowledge encryption included, against pCloud’s $399 plus a paid Crypto add-on. The asterisk is longevity: a lifetime plan is a bet that the company outlives your need, and pCloud has been winning that bet since 2013 with twenty million users, while Internxt is the newer, smaller operation. Our pragmatic line: pCloud for your primary archive, Internxt as the aggressively priced encrypted second copy, never the only one.
“The young Spanish challenger selling encryption plus lifetime deals: 2 TB forever for what subscriptions charge in two years. Open source and audited, though the apps still feel their age. High upside, slightly higher risk than the veterans.”Editorial team, on Internxt
“The lifetime-deal king and a genuinely good cloud drive: fast sync, built-in media players, and Swiss-based infrastructure. The famous pay-once plans transform the economics if you keep them for years. Zero-knowledge encryption costs extra, which we wish were standard.”Editorial team, on pCloud
