![]() To unify your cloud services, odrive uses a combination of a web interface and a desktop sync client. The desktop client is available for Windows and Mac, with a beta version out for Linux. Odrive has supposedly had Android and iOS apps in the works for a few years but so far, nothing. You can create unlimited cloud connections even if you’re on the free plan. ![]() Otixo, a rival service, only allows ten connections on free accounts. We’ll cover what cloud services are supported later in this review. odrive also supports the WebDAV, FTP and SFTP protocols. There’s a command-line interface, too, for working with servers. Otixo doesn’t offer cloud-to-cloud sync or cloud-to-cloud backup, which is one of the unfortunate misses we mentioned. In fact, there’s not even an easy way to perform a onetime transfer from one cloud to another. You’ll have to use the desktop client and move content there. For better cloud-to-cloud connections, checkout MultCloud (read our MultCloud review). On the plus side, the odrive sync client lets you see cloud content from your desktop file system without having to store that content on your computer. We’ll talk about this point more when we discuss user experience. It’s quite a useful feature and not very common.Īnother such feature is odrive’s capacity to encrypt files privately, something you won’t get natively with most cloud storage services. We’ll look at this feature more when we talk security later in this review. We’ll also discuss odrive’s troubling lack of two-factor authentication. Odrive also lets you share files by generating links and create shareable workspaces.
