It's working (sort of) OK on my system - BUT - when I click on the 'globe' link on the concealed dashboard it takes me to a 'failed' page unless I've already logged on to the Cloud - luckily I bookmarked the web site previously, so I can go to the log-on page for BT Cloud. It's clunky as well. But recent files have been backed up, as I wanted, automatically.
Overall, for me, for free (and as part of a suite of back-up options) it's OK. I absolutely wouldn't put all my data eggs in this particular basket, but then, even if it was working superbly, I wouldn't either.
Alternative broadband options in my neck of the woods (i.e. those not offered over BT/ Openreach infrastructure) are broadly cr*p - the cable alternative has been massively over-sold and underfunded so there are long down-times and slow speeds. In general I have little or no technical broad-band problems and I get good speeds. I'm not going to change out because a freebie isn't perfect. On the other hand, if BT as its most recent reorganisation suggests is going down the high value end of Cloud etc. services its very much going the wrong way to convince punters it's serious.
