Personally, don't like the plans offered by pCloud, in respect to what a person can get for free from Google Drive, OneDrive, etc... pCloud is swinging way too hard for the fence, instead of going for the easier base hits that are available. They are offering some interesting features over Google Drive, but you can't access them unless you pay for their 500 GB yearly plan or go for their lifetime plan. Both of which represent a commitment, that many people might not feel that pCloud is worth. It's like they are putting out pricing as if Google Drive doesn't exist or people don't know about it. At the present, Google Drive is offering 100GB for around 25 dollars.
Where if pCloud offered some intermediate plans, like 25GB to 100GB for around 9.99 to 19.99, it might be seen as worth checking out. I haven't bothered to search in detail, but if I did, probably I would see more viable alternatives in the before mentioned range. Maybe allow people to "dip their toe", and see if they like them. If it's a good, people will probably want more.
