DriveHQ is an enterprise level data online storage and backup provider. Although aimed at business users, DriveHQ 
also caters for individuals with its gratis memberships and low cost subscription options. The service is professional and peak quality but still easy enough to use for novice users. Read on to find out why we rate DriveHQ so high up on our list.
DriveHQ offers many different options bundled up into one package – online storage, internet backup, ftp server hosting and email server hosting. We will focus mainly on the online storage side of things in this review, but you should be aware that these other services can come as part of the package. Each service comes with its own software to help you access and make the most of it.
The online storage service can be accessed through the downloadable client, the web based interface or an FTP client of your choosing, although the desktop software is only available for Windows. Mac or Linux users only have the web based or FTP client options for now. However, each method is very effortless to use and DriveHQ provides help to get you set up with an FTP client if you don’t have one. Their proprietary software for uploading files is outstanding and provides robust capability for uploading large files. In addition, it will also let you robotically back up your files to your online space either in real time or at scheduled intervals.
Being aimed at businesses, DriveHQ offers significantof online collaboration features. Multiple user accounts with different group level security access controls can be managed by administrators. This makes it simple to set up communal folders where a single group can collaborate on documents. The local folder synchronization options mean that each person in the group can automatically be updated with the most recent version of each document in the shared folder. As you can see this can be a useful, but dangerous, feature if you accidentally overwrite a newer version of a file. Although, DriveHQ maintains versioning control on all your documents so it is easy to revert back to any previous version at the click of a button.
Security is, as you would hope for a business level service, well designed and thorough. All uploads are handled using 128-bit SSL encryption. Documents can also be stored in encrypted form so that not even the data center folks can view them. This is very valuable when dealing with that may be crucial business documents and sensitive information.
The one small quark we have with DriveHQ is that the whole service is a bit overwhelming for first time users. With so many alternative pricing options, levels of service and types of service it can be difficult to choose exactly which plan is best suited to your needs.
