So, I'm looking for a cloud storage media app that will work on macOS, Android and Android TV that will allow me to instantly stream my files without having to cache the whole thing first, essentially like watching video on Netflix or YouTube. I tried out using Kodi as an alternative and this does pretty much what I want, as it only caches up to ~60MB, according to their site, and this cache is left on the RAM, rather than the SSD, but the interface is AWFUL on mobile and desktop. These are great for allowing me to free up local storage and work natively in the OS (I'm on Mac), but they have to cache the file in its entirety before I can watch in VLC. I have looked into solutions that allow me to mount cloud storage as network drives but the issue seems to be that the entire file has to be cached first before I can watch/listen to the media. Recently, the version of CloudMounter from the Mac App Store switched to a subscription-based pricing model, which may not seem attractive to a lot of potential users (specially when compared to similar alternatives offered in the App Store).I've been searching for a solution to this over the last week and haven't got anywhereĮssentially, I want to offload a bunch of movies and music to the cloud to free up storage space on my laptop. This also depends on things like your computer's specifications, the quality of your internet connection, among other factors.Ģ. If you add a lot of cloud storage accounts, CloudMounter may suffer from instability and unreliability. In my opinion, CloudMounter has two disadvantages:ġ.

CloudMounter works immediately after installation, unlike other similar alternatives that require external "helper" programs. Instead of immediately downloading all my files and folders, CloudMounter only gets the ones that I need to work on the others stay in the cloud, waiting for the moment I'll need them. It synchronises only the files that I need to my computer.

Since it's only one software running (instead of a different software for each cloud storage vendor), CloudMounter uses just a fraction of the memory and disc space all those individual programs would use.Ĥ. It uses less computer resources (memory and disc space). CloudMounter puts all my files and folders from the cloud right inside the file manager there's no need to deal with different configurations from each cloud storage vendor.ģ. It unifies all the cloud-stored files and folders.

Instead of having to install each software from Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive and other vendors, I just need to install CloudMounter, and it gives me access to all those cloud storage accounts.Ģ. It replaces all individual cloud storage clients. It even helps to save space in my computer, since it downloads only the files and folders I need to work on at any given moment.įor me, the main advantages of CloudMounter are:ġ.

The trial version saved our project and I subbed to the full version ASAP after that! I must also mention the encryption feature which can be very useful at times. I really loved the simplicity with which any newbie can get into using the software. It was a life safer (*THUMBS UP* <3 ) CHEERS We saved up hella lot of time (mind the language) and got the dissertation done in the nick of time. Then on a fine and fortunate day, my friend from the tech engineering told me about this in a normal geek conversation and something nudged my mind to try it out. Too much time went on for the logging in and the browser searches. Me and my teammates found fighting with time when there was issues with each other's parts and the dissertation kept bouncing off each other's laptop. My dissertation was a mess and had to log in to cloud through the browser to get my part of the work shared to my teammates. Unfortunately I was out of station on another important matters to attend to.
