On the basic metrics alone, the score was 72.1 and the rank 4. The score is now 56.0 and rank 3 (▲ 1 place). The difference comes from buying motives: they measure what the buyer asks before deciding.
Livedrive tarjoaa rajattoman pilvivarmuuskopiointitilan yhdelle tietokoneelle ja kertoo poikkeuksellisen avoimesti, että data säilytetään brittiläisissä datakeskuksissa. Versiohistoria yltää 30 aiempaan versioon. Sivu mainitsee vain siirtosalauksen, ei levon aikaista salaustasoa, ja hinnat ovat punnissa.
