Simple UI Seamless integration and synchronization Free 5GB cloud storage
Cons
The interface looks a bit dated Must use DriveHQ Cloud to use the FileManager
DriveHQ FileManager
Price: $
DriveHQ FileManager is a free file transfer application that users can use to manage their DriveHQ Cloud. What separates it from other file managers is that it is used to manage cloud storage rather than physical disk storage, but in the same manner and efficiency that normal disk drives operate. Now that sounds good.
How does it work?
DriveHQ FileManager is an exclusive FTP client that works using FTP virtual server hosting service. What that means is that it reads from your cloud storage once you load it up, then you can manage it however you want while sharing, copying, and pasting files and folders as you please. Once you are done with your operations, it can sync at once.
Now, the syncing depends on your Internet connection, so a good connection is always more than welcome.
Which storage does it use?
On the main screen of the application, you can see two screens in parallel. One is the DriveHQ Cloud where the data exists that you have uploaded to the cloud. The other screen is the physical drive storage on your computer from where you can copy or paste files and folders to and from your DriveHQ cloud.
The storage that it uses is both the physical drive as well as the DriveHQ Cloud, for which you can get 5GB of free storage when signing up.
Efficient cloud storage manager
The specialty of DriveHQ FileManager is that it is an efficient cloud storage manager that is bundled with a lot of useful features. One of the great features is that it is so quick and responsive that you almost forget that it is managing cloud storage. It feels like you are browsing through your normal file manager and managing your physical drives.
