It is often said that more memory space on a phone is unnecessary with the advancements in cloud storage. People have gone as far as saying that on-board memory and physical storage devices (like flash drives) are archaic and have no place in the modern world.

While it does seem that cloud storage is the way of the future, there are those who are worried about the security of their data. On top of that, there is also those who are worried about the reliability of that data. What happens if they lose internet connection? Are they stuck in a state of limbo until they are reconnected to internet?

ReVault has started an IndieGogo campaign with a solution.

  1. Cloud storage will never replace onboard storage until there is ultra-low cost unlimited and super fast mobile internet access. Right now, you have to pay through your nose for something that does that or you are limited by a low monthly data cap or speeds.

    • That is what the ReVault is trying to solve. Cloud storage without having to worry about data or storage costs. The one time payment will get you either 32 GB or 126 GB of storage that can be accessed by any of your devices offline. It is a cloud that doesn’t require internet access.

  2. Thanks for writing about ReVault! I think you hit the head on the nail. People either want ReVault for security and/or performance reasons. I personally love the web – who doesn’t – but on-the-go it can actually be a terrible experience. Sitting on a train right now and it’s really annoying the way the connection goes up and down.
