In Symform’s revolutionary Cloud Storage Network, each user contributes excess local storage in exchange for valuable storage in our globally distributed cloud. We're able to provide the most affordable, secure, high-performing, and environmentally friendly cloud storage on the market because our hands aren't tied by the security risks and variable costs of maintaining datacenters.
Symform started when two senior Microsoft engineers wondered: why is local storage so cheap but cloud storage so expensive? Why does it cost thousands per year to store two terabytes of data in the cloud, while a two-terabyte drive costs only $100?
The answer lay in the foundation for every cloud solution: the datacenter. Building datacenters—even the most efficient datacenters—is expensive and burdensome, especially because new datacenters have to be built to keep up with data growth, which isn’t going to slow down any time soon. So Symform’s founders set out to design a cloud solution that bypassed the datacenter problem. They ended up with the world’s first distributed cloud storage network.
Today, the Symform team is creating the world’s largest datacenter, without ever building a datacenter. Our network grows each time somebody realizes that the age of paying for storage by the gigabyte is over. We’re proud to offer 200GB of free cloud storage, and unlimited storage for a low flat fee, to every user who contributes to our network, and proud that that storage is the best in the world.
