FAQ

The most common questions Americans ask about Tresorit

Most-searched questions, per Sistrix

Does Tresorit have a free version?

Not a permanent one. Tresorit is primarily a paid, premium security service; it offers a free trial so you can test it, but its ongoing free storage tier has been discontinued, so there's no lasting free plan. Paid personal plans start at US$11.99/mo. If you specifically want permanent free storage, MEGA (20 GB) or Sync.com (5 GB) are better suited. Tresorit's focus is top-tier, business-grade security for paying users rather than a free offering.

What is the difference between Dropbox and Tresorit?

Dropbox is a mainstream sync service with excellent collaboration, fast block-level sync and a huge range of integrations, but it isn't end-to-end encrypted — Dropbox can technically access your files. Tresorit is end-to-end, zero-knowledge encrypted and Swiss-based, purpose-built for confidential and regulated data, so only you and those you authorise can read it. The flip side is that Tresorit costs more and has fewer third-party integrations. Choose Tresorit for security and compliance; choose Dropbox for ecosystem, collaboration and price.

What is Tresorit used for?

Tresorit is used to store, sync and share confidential files securely — particularly by businesses, law firms, healthcare providers and anyone handling sensitive or regulated data. Its end-to-end, zero-knowledge encryption and Swiss privacy jurisdiction mean that only you and the people you authorise can read the files, which is why it's popular where confidentiality and compliance are non-negotiable rather than as a casual consumer drive.
