The short version

  • Each has a real cost: pCloud headline lifetime prices are discounted promotional prices; the Premium 500GB lifetime plan is listed at $299 struck through down to $199, and Ultra 10TB at $1,890 down to $1,190, so the full non-promotional price is materially higher; Tresorit business plan requires a minimum of 3 users and Business Pro requires a minimum of 5 users

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

pCloud

  • Headline lifetime prices are discounted promotional prices; the Premium 500GB lifetime plan is listed at $299 struck through down to $199, and Ultra 10TB at $1,890 down to $1,190, so the full non-promotional price is materially higher
  • Ultra 10TB plan's download link traffic is capped at 2TB, the same limit as the much smaller Premium Plus 2TB plan, despite the 5x storage difference

Tresorit

  • Business plan requires a minimum of 3 users and Business Pro requires a minimum of 5 users
  • The Professional plan is single-user only, so a solo account cannot invite teammates without upgrading to a multi-seat tier
  • None of the four tiers publish an exact price on the pricing page itself; all show per-month placeholders with the figure omitted and require going through checkout to see a number
