No one’s thrilled about paying monthly just to keep your files accessible in iCloud, but this storage service gives you 1TB of lifetime cloud storage for $59.99 (regularly $387).
Instead of committing to another recurring bill, OnlineDrive lets you pay once and keep your storage for the long haul. The entry-level plan includes 1TB of cloud storage, with larger lifetime options available if your photo library, video projects or work files keep growing.
What makes this a smart storage companion
OnlineDrive isn’t trying to replace iCloud’s device syncing. Instead, it works well as a long-term cloud vault that’s compatible with Mac, iPhone and iPad through a browser-based interface. That means no extra apps to install and no learning curve. Your files stay accessible across Apple devices.
Performance is one of OnlineDrive’s standout features. You can choose from six global server regions across North America, Europe and Asia-Pacific. Picking a nearby region helps keep uploads and downloads fast, whether you’re backing up large video files from a Mac or grabbing documents on your iPhone while traveling.
File management feels practical and flexible. OnlineDrive supports resumable uploads, so large transfers won’t fail if your connection drops. You can preview more than 100 file types directly in your browser, including PDFs, Office documents, audio and video files.
Sharing tools let you generate secure links with password protection and expiration dates, which is useful for client work or family sharing.
Key features included with lifetime plans:
- 1TB to 6TB lifetime storage options
- Compatible with Mac, iPhone and iPad via browser access
- Enterprise-grade S3 infrastructure with SSL encryption
- Team workspaces and permission controls
- 99.9% uptime commitment
For Apple users who are constantly juggling storage alerts or archiving old projects to free up space, OnlineDrive offers a practical way to offload files without losing access or flexibility.
Pay once and skip monthly storage fees — Lifetime plans start at $59.99 (regularly $387) for 1TB with higher-capacity options available.
