Jungle Disk Blog

We have exciting news and savings for our Amazon S3 customers that we’d like to pass along!

Effective Feb 1st, Amazon Web Services announced that they are lowering AWS pricing for outbound data transfer by $0.02, which will reduce the per GB fee from $0.17 down to $0.15.  Of course, Inbound Data Transfer is still  free of charge until June 30^th.

These pricing changes will be reflected in your next statement.

It’s really exciting to look back at all of the great things we accomplished at Jungle Disk in 2009, however, we believe that 2010 is our opportunity to do even more great things! We wanted to outline just a couple of the areas that we’re looking to target over the next year.

Collaboration
We love that you trust Jungle Disk to backup and store your valuable files, but now we want to empower you to do more by offering cool new features like collaboration tools and public file sharing.  At the end of the day, Jungle Disk is going to be the complete solution for any individual, team or company looking to do just about anything with their data. Store it? Archive it? Back it up? Version it? Share it? Sync it? Collaborate with it? Access it through the web? Yes, Jungle Disk does that.

Usability
We’re going to make a big push to improve product usability across the board. That means a rework of our existing offering and also putting more thought into usability as we roll out new features.  Certainly, our efforts to improve usability applies not only to the software, but the Jungle Disk website as well.

What else?
Rest assured that we have a lot of awesome things to roll out over 2010!  In addition to a host of new features and improvements for all of Jungle Disk’s products and services, you’ll want to keep coming back to find out more about how we’re taking your ability to store, sync, access and share your data to the max!
