Photos+ Cloud Library vs Permanent Archive

Photos+ is a cloud-based photos library with unlimited storage of your original unmodified photos and videos and powered by your own cloud storage account. You can choose from OneDrive, Google Drive, Dropbox, or any other S3-compatible storage platform. Use it as a second photo library to separate your precious photos from your main photo library, or use it as your primary photo library, resting assured that your photos are safely stored in your own cloud storage platform. When used with OneDrive, Google Drive or Dropbox, you’re only limited by the available free storage of your accounts. When used with other S3-compatible storage platforms, there is no limit to the number of photos and videos you can store and with most S3-compatible cloud storage providers, you only pay for the actual storage you use. • Synchronize / upload on demand. Photos+ was designed with professional photographers and videographers in mind who may shoot tens of gigabytes of content out on the field on a typical shoot. With our synchronize on demand feature, you can create new albums, select photos and videos for upload, and manage all other aspects of your cloud library while using a minimal amount of mobile network bandwidth while out on a shoot, and then optionally leave the actual heavy lifting of the actual uploading for when you’re back home on WIFI. • Powerful sharing. Similar to iCloud Links, Photos+ offers a simple way to publish selected photos and videos as a private, read-only web gallery. • Automatic image classification. Just like your built-in photo library, Photos+ automatically categorizes all your photos using advanced AI image classification so you can quickly search your photos based on tags. • Location based searches and automatic reverse geocoding. Photos and videos containing latitude/longitude data are automatically reverse geocoded to their respective cities, counties, countries and named places and become instantly searchable by location. • Select your own cloud storage platform where you can store your priceless photos and videos. With Photos+, your photos and videos are safely stored in your own account with the storage platform you configure, so your photos and videos are also available for direct download from OneDrive, Google Drive, Dropbox, or the S3-compatible storage platform you are using even without the Photos+ app. Subscription Pricing and Terms - Subscriptions will not automatically renew.

Permanent.org is a place where you can store your family photos and videos, personal documents, business records, or any other digital file permanently. Our nonprofit mission is a promise to store your digitized photos, videos, music, documents, or anything made of bits and bytes for all time. Our one-time fee model means you don’t have to pay monthly subscriptions for file storage and your access to your files will never expire. We can do that because we're a nonprofit backed by an endowment, same as a museum, university, or faith-based organization. Storage fees are donations. Permanent.org is user friendly for any technical level. It works just like the other file storage applications you’re already familiar with. A digital archive on Permanent.org is a legacy that you can pass down to future generations using our new Legacy Planning feature; you can now name a legacy contact and archive steward. You have the option to keep files private or share them with your whole family, community or the world by adding them to the Permanent Public Gallery. Preserving and sharing your legacy allows future generations to learn from you and know your unique story. ◼Tell the story of your files: add titles, descriptions, dates, locations, and tags to your files. Metadata is captured automatically for your files when you upload to save you time. ◼Share with confidence: choose what files and folders you want to share and what level of access others can have to view, contribute, edit, or curate your content. Generate share links that are easy to copy and paste or share files directly in text messages, emails, or any app. ◼Collaborate with control: add family, friends and teammates to your Permanent Archives as members so they can build archives with you. Control their level of access to view, contribute, edit, or curate your content. ◼Maintain access forever: files are converted to universally standard formats so they are accessible as technology changes. One-time storage fees mean your account and archives will never expire. Be a digital preservation hero! Don’t wait, start building your archives today. There’s no cost to get started. Your loved ones will thank you for it. - - - Permanent.org is the world's first permanent data storage system, backed by a nonprofit organization, the Permanent Legacy Foundation.
