MiMedia Editor's Review

There was a time when data backup meant burning data on CD, DVDs or storing it on external hard discs. However, just like internal hard disk of your laptop and desktop, these storage solutions are not exactly fail proof. If you are looking for more robust and secured solution for storing valuable data for future access and retrieval, cloud storage is feasible. However, as is the case with other software solutions, there are plenty of cloud storage providers. Picking the right one can be quite tedious for you. If your data comprises mostly of digital media like video and music, opt for MiMedia. It is a synced online storage service –convenient to use and comes loaded with features.

MiMedia has a small installer and it can be used on PCs with Windows XP SP2 and subsequent versions. It comes with various storage options and free account comes with 7 GB storage, more than what many competing cloud storage and backup companies offer. You may store up to 1TB data under other subscription based plans. To start with the Free account, all you need to provide is a valid e-mail address.

After you install MiMedia, a wizard pops up and asks you to make an account. The service supports network and external drives. You will not have to worry about backing up images and videos on mobile phone and USB drives. After you select folders to be backed up, MiMedia analyses required storage space and then the data gets uploaded to its servers. It is a tad disappointing that it offers no scheduling for data backup tasks. The app keeps working in background on 24x7 basis. The service works on folders and you cannot work on individual files.

This way, it works more as syncing service than fully fledged backup. However, MiMedia lacks syncing among many PCs, something you get in DropBox. However, you can add more PCs for data uploading. It offers a Free Shuttle Drive service but you have to give credit card info. It is a physical drive that is sent to user address. It is secured with AES 256 encryption for security.

MiMedia installer adds a system tray icon and it indicates system activity. It is handy but there is no option to pause it temporarily. The app also creates a drive icon in the PC’s My Computer folder. MiMedia adds another drive that shows up besides hard disk partitions. However, it is recommended that you use Web Dashboard for most tasks. The sleek portal is reminiscent of iTunes. It displays photos, plays back audio files and videos too. No third party software will be required. While the viewers support plenty of audio and video formats, they cannot play back DRM-protected files.

Restoring files with MiMedia is simple. The Restore Backup button is located close to the created drive. While restoring is simple, this service does not store various versions of backed up files. Sharing backed up data is easy with MiMedia. The dashboard has a Share link marked by green icon. The recipient need not make any MiMedia account.

Keeping in mind the needs of mobile device users, MiMedia has mobile apps for iOS and Android based devices. The mobile apps offer users single click access to uploaded media content. The company offers support online through email and FAQ.

Positive Points:
 - License not limited to number of PCs per user.
 - Intuitive UI and workflow.
 - Mobile Apps for iOS and Android.
 - Easy restoration, 24x7 syncing.

Negative Points:
 - No support for backing up various versions of file.
 - Works on folder level only.
 - Web viewers do not support DRM protected content.

Conclusions:
Among the crowd of cloud based data backup services, MiMedia stands tall and apart owing to its unique features. The entry level data limit of 7GB is what most users will love. The rest of the plans are quite reasonably priced. It offers syncing data 24x7 but does not allow you to sync data between various devices. On redeeming side, you can use any number of devices after buying a plan. It is meant more for users who want to backup their media collection than regular data. Not many cloud services offer a secured USB drive to upload data. The cloud storage service will fit needs of media buffs very well and support for mobile devices makes things sweeter for them.

Rating: 3.5/5
