Broadbent Cloud

Desktopfeatures

Back up the folders you choose, see the quota, and open the same drive in the browser when you want to browse or share.

Features

What the desktop app does

  • 01

    Back up a folder

    Point a local folder at a folder on one of your drives. Add more than one folder, and run them together.
  • 02

    Back up now

    Start every configured backup from the window, or let a schedule keep the folders up to date.
  • 03

    Skip unchanged files

    Uploads go in parts. A file that still has the same size and modified time is left where it is.
  • 04

    S3 for drive owners

    Owners, including the free 1 GB plan, back up through the S3 gateway. The access key and bucket come from the account after sign-in.
  • 05

    WebDAV for team members

    A teammate with write access backs up over WebDAV into the folder they were granted. Read-only access can see the drive, but cannot start a backup.
  • 06

    Adjust the plan

    Change capacity from the drive card when a backup needs more than the current quota.
  • 07

    Open the drive

    Jump from the desktop app into Broadbent Drive in the browser to browse, upload and share the same files.
