5 Reasons You Should Replicate Your Google Docs to...
You may be thinking to yourself, “Why should I backup Google Docs when it’s remotely hosted by Google?” It’s true that Google probably has some of the biggest and most secure servers on the planet, backed by billions of dollars, and maintained by hundreds of Googlers. The work documents you store on your Google Docs account are safe and hosted on the cloud, what could go wrong? This, apparently,...

When you hear the word ‘computer’, your mind conjures images of the desktop PC back home or the laptop you use at work.

All the way back in the 1990s we had a vision – the vision of a ‘liquid’ computer (the term ‘cloud computing’ didn’t exist, so we used the term...

Why Should You Backup Your Google Docs Files?
Why should I keep a backup of my Google Docs documents? They’re stored on Google’s cloud servers so they’re completely safe, right? Even if my computer breaks down due to power outage, disk failure or natural disasters, my documents will still be on the Google servers safe and sound. While these statements may be true in most cases, data loss is not limited to computer failure or disasters.

Update: Slow sync when a new file is added....
Less than 5% of accounts are experiencing slow synchronization when a new file is added: it takes more than 20 minutes (up to 4 hours depending on size of the account) to synch a newly added file. We have identified a problem and we are working on a fix.
Please email us at support@cloudHQ.net if you have any questions.
Just a short update on upcoming improvements...
We are developing improved synchronization which have more options (manual synchronization, different options for file conversion), better conflict resolution (read only files, deleted files, etc.), synchronizations can be reverted (like TimeMachine), and better control and monitoring of synchronization.
If you want to participate in testing of these new features please email us at...
