Icedrive vs Sync.com (individual plans)
Both ladders below were read from the vendors’ own pricing pages, in this market, on the dates shown. Nothing is converted: what you see is what each page showed a reader here.
What each one is
Icedrivesite ↗pricing ↗
Cloud storage with encrypted vaults, sold by subscription or as a lifetime plan. Paid plans start at €9.99/mo (Pro); a free plan exists. The ladder we hold runs 3 paid tiers, topping out at €24.99/mo (Pro Max).
Sync.com (individual plans)site ↗pricing ↗
Paid plans start at $4/mo (Personal 150GB); no free plan is published. The ladder we hold runs 3 paid tiers, topping out at $32/mo (Pro Solo 5TB). We read the same $4/mo in every market we check, so this vendor does not price by country. It quotes USD here rather than local currency, so your bank sets the conversion.

Where they differ
- Cheapest way in: Sync.com (individual plans) at $4/mo, against Icedrive at €9.99/mo. That is the entry price in this market on the dates shown, not a judgement about which suits you.
- Free plans: only Icedrive publishes one — a plan priced at zero, not a trial.
- How far each ladder goes: Icedrive tops out at €24.99/mo, Sync.com (individual plans) at $32/mo. A deeper ladder is not a worse deal — it is a bill that keeps climbing if you keep growing.
- Sync.com (individual plans): We read the same $4/mo in every market we check, so this vendor does not price by country. It quotes USD here rather than local currency, so your bank sets the conversion.
How to choose in this category
- Per-terabyte cost falls as tiers rise — the entry tier is rarely the value point.
- Lifetime pay-once plans exist in this category; divide by your honest years of use before comparing them to subscriptions.
- Business and personal ladders differ — make sure the page you read matches the plan you would buy.
