Storage fills up fast so normally have to pay a monthly fee > > It has been good I have used it on my iPad and iPhone to store photos and especially large files and videos ----- ### "Easy to file share to the team and extra storage space on devices" — 5.0/5 > **Tiffany** | *18 February 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: iCloud is easy to integrate and use across all my devices. When I run out of space on my work phone I can easily go into the cloud and still find the files I'm looking for. I can share files with my team and the learning curve is minimal. Overall a great cloud service that offers support and is affordable. > > **Cons**: I have no cons, using iCloud on all of my devices makes file sharing easy and adds unlimited storage to my devices. ----- ### "A Digital Blessing from Above" — 5.0/5 > **Trinidad** | *10 March 2026* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Apple's iCloud is an incredible platform and I use it throughout the day every single day. I really love and appreciate that all my data and files are safe, secure, and easily accessible. > > **Cons**: iCloud has very limited storage and regularly really encourages the user to upgrade and purchase more terabytes of storage space. It very much feels necessary since the initial free storage offered fills up fast. > > Overall I think iCloud is a very valuable and extremely useful platform and service. It's very intuitive and easy to learn and use from the start. ----- ### "Apple tool given for iPhones" — 3.0/5 > **Victoria** | *10 March 2026* | Insurance | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Either can store pictures and files from your phone on iCloud and it uploads from your phone automatically. > > **Cons**: I feel like it does not provide enough storage and you have to pay for storage, which usually starts out cheap and then you have to get into the higher ranges later on. I also don’t like it will automatically store after you’re out of storage and you may lose pictures. > > My overall experience has been decent with iCloud. I’m glad it’s there. I just don’t like that you have to pay once you are over your storage limit. ----- ### "Great but timely" — 4.0/5 > **Susanne** | *11 February 2026* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: The fact that no matter if my device breaks or gets stolen all my data is safe and I can get access to it online on any device > > **Cons**: The fact that if you lose a phone with your info on it you have to wait up to two weeks to be able to access your information because you can't bypass the two factor authentication without your device > > I love apple products it has always been top notch and I never worry about my saved data ever being permanently gone. ----- Page: 1 / 79\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ie/software/204717/icloud?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ie/software/204717/icloud) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | ----- ## Structured Data
