Livedrive Releases New Mobile Apps
I noticed on the Livedrive blog today that they have announced the availability of their newest version of their Android mobile app. That got me looking back a little bit and realized that they also released a new version of their iOS app back in May as well. The big news about both the…
Livedrive Closing Resellers
It looks like the sale of Livedrive to j2 Global, the same company that has tried to acquire Carbonite, is now having an effect on Livedrive resellers. Yesterday there was a comment that came in mentioning that DrivePop was closing down. DrivePop was a Livedrive reseller, who was actually sold to Tapnet back in September…
j2 Global Acquires LiveDrive
I don’t hear about news from LiveDrive but when I saw this press release yesterday it caught my eye. Looks like LiveDrive has been bought out by j2 Global. This is a huge for LiveDrive users and resellers and could be interesting to see how the LiveDrive will be integrated into j2 Global. I would…
Top 3 Reasons Customers Choose TAPNET’s LiveDrive for Cloud Storage
It has been suggested that John and now myself have been unfair to Livedrive resellers in our assessment of their services. The opportunity to explain what makes a Livedrive reseller better than purchasing straight from Livedrive had been offered to other resellers but guests posts were never sent in. Recently however TAPNET purchased some advertising…

Bulldog Backup is offering…
CloudZow is Livedrive Reseller
In my first post about CloudZow willemijns commented that CloudZow appeared that it was a Livedrive reseller. I had my doubts since usually I cannot sign up using my email address to a Livedrive reseller because I already have a Livedrive account and by using the same email address it throws a warning that I…
CloudZow First Impressions
If first impressions are important CloudZow has already proven to me that they are not really serious about online backup but are serious about being a multi level marketing scheme. I first started to hear about this new service from a number of comments that have been left here on the site. When I say…
Suggested Livedrive Resellers
Livedrive resellers have been having a tough time of it again lately. Last fall it was Backify and this spring there have already been closures of Beecloud.eu and Backzup.com. While I highly suggest people do not purchase backup services through a reseller if you are determined to use a Livedrive reseller here are a few…
BeeCloud.eu Shutdown
Thanks to Jon’s comment I have heard that another Livedrive reseller, BeeCloud.eu, has closed down! They are just the latest Livedrive reseller to close down after the Backify disaster last fall. BeeCloud.eu had a similar business model of offering 512GB free accounts as Backify. Perhaps this shows that offering huge amounts of storage for free…
