Wuala – Secure Cloud Storage (Service Discontinued)
Wuala was a secure and innovative cloud storage service developed by LaCie, offering encrypted file storage, easy sharing, and multi-device access. Users could upload and share documents, media, and other files while keeping data safe through advanced encryption and distributed storage.
However, Wuala's service has been officially discontinued:
- August 18, 2015 – No new purchases or renewals accepted
- September 30, 2015 – Accounts transitioned to read-only mode
- November 15, 2015 – All services terminated and content deleted
Important Notice:
If you had an active Wuala account, it is essential to download and back up all your stored files before November 15, 2015. After this date, data will no longer be accessible.
Suggested Alternative: Tresorit
Wuala recommends Tresorit as a secure alternative, offering easy data transfer for former Wuala users. Tresorit also provides encrypted, cloud-based storage and sharing for personal or business use.
Though Wuala is no longer operational, its emphasis on security, social sharing, and innovation has paved the way for users to seek better, more secure cloud storage solutions.
