Apollo Cloud is a secure cloud designed for small groups that makes it easier and safer to store, access and, for the first time, share digital content

Promise Technology announced that Apollo Cloud, its first consumer product, is now available for purchase at Apple stores and Apple.com. Apollo Cloud is a personal cloud appliance and app that gives users and their circles full control over storing and accessing digital content from their own private space. Unlike current market products, Apollo Cloud is the first to let families, small business, home offices, or work groups easily and privately store and share their digital content.

The immense volume of photos, videos and files quickly eating up space on devices means that managing data on phones, tablets and laptops is increasingly complicated. As technology evolves, files increase in size and number. With Apollo Cloud, users get four terabytes to manage, store, and share data both securely and privately, from wherever they happen to be, via iOS and other mobile devices, Macs and PCs. Apollo Cloud can be used by a group of up to 10 members, each with full sharing control over their own digital files. Apollo Cloud can save and share more than 440 hours of HD video, 220,000 photos and half a million songs.

Apollo Cloud features:

• Small device, huge capacity - 4TB of storage space with no recurring fees.
• Easy to use – Set up takes only minutes, and Apollo is accessible from any device with quick access to personal content from anywhere with the Apollo Cloud App.
• Easy to share – An owner can invite up to nine members to share the Apollo Cloud. Each member of a group gets a private space and full sharing control over their own files.
• Private and secure – Apollo Cloud provides peace of mind knowing that all data is off the Web, safe and secure on a personal cloud, with all transactions encrypted to the highest degree.

“Promise has been delivering high-performance data storage solutions to media and entertainment organizations, enterprises and small and medium businesses for almost 30 years and we are very pleased to bring our innovation to consumers with the introduction of Apollo Cloud,” said James Lee, CEO, Promise Technology. “People are inundated with data and they need a solution that offers convenient access and file sharing without being weighed down by limitations or having to sacrifice privacy and security. Apollo Cloud solves these storage headaches and brings customers an easy to use personal cloud appliance that offers security, flexibility, and affordability.”
