End of support for OS X 10.4 and 10.5

As I said in my previous post, JustCloud (http://www.justcloud.com/planprice-information) is fully functional on 10.5 Leopard with G4 and G5 Macs (I'm using two G4s and two G5s). Fortunately I only needed to buy a Backup License for one of the G5s since the other 3 machines are only used with files in the sync folder. There's no limit to how many machines (including iOS) can use the sync folder.

There are some drawbacks:

1-The free version is so small (1GB total space and 15MB sync folder) it's only practical to use as a test to see if you will like the service. Once you sign up for the free service they will constantly hound you to upgrade to paid services. Although the hounding always includes some good discounts in the offer.

2-The sync folder is not on your desktop like Dropbox. It resides on their servers (actually Google's servers) and is accessed with their desktop app or their Website.

3-The sync folder does not update automatically. When you've updated a file you have to save it and then drag it to the sync folder in the app window or Website.

4-For backing up your hard drive it allows you to choose which files to back up and in subsequent backups it only backs up new files or files that have change which is good. However, when you delete a file from your hard drive that was backed up it does not get deleted from the cloud backup. You have to delete the file in both places. It would be very easy to forget to delete cloud files and suddenly go over your limit. Backups can take as long as 24 hours to appear in your cloud files.

5-JustCloud does not support 10.4 Tiger. Only 10.5 Leopard.

So all in all it's not as convenient to use as Dropbox but I've found it to be reliable and, after some consternation I got used to it. They claim to be working on improvements to the sync folder process. It was the only cloud backup I could find that is fully supported for PowerPC.
