Tresorit Review

Depends

Should I use Tresorit?

Share files securely with anyone using encrypted cloud storage. Get the highest standard of data security in the cloud. - tresorit.com

· 1 month ago

Buy it if you handle regulated or highly sensitive files and need zero-knowledge encryption — the premium price buys compliance, not features. Skip it if you just need storage and sharing; mainstream clouds do that for far less.

Confidence

Medium. Based on 20+ public sources; review depth is thin — mostly directory snippets and one dated Reddit thread, so user-sentiment confidence is moderate.

  • Personal users — the 3 GB free tier is a token gesture
  • Teams optimizing for integrations and ecosystem over security

Gotchas - check before you buy

3 GB free plan is fine for testing, useless for real work files

Per-user pricing multiplies fast on larger teams

Zero-knowledge design typically means no password recovery — losing keys loses data
