Synchronoss Technologies announced that it has renewed its contract to provide Proximus with the Synchronoss Personal Cloud platform.
The three-year contract extension means Proximus will continue to deliver the Synchronoss Personal Cloud through its existing freemium model.
The service enables subscribers to securely back up, store and sync content from their laptops, tablets, PCs and smartphones to their own accounts in the cloud.
Broadband subscribers are given 10 gigabytes in free storage as well as the option to pay €2.95 a month for 100 gigabytes of storage or €9.95 for one terabyte. Subscribers decide whether backup happens automatically or manually, and they choose which file types – photos, videos, documents or all three – to include in their backups.
As Belgium’s largest telecommunications operator, Proximus has offered the Synchronoss platform to its broadband customers since 2015 through a white-label cloud offering.
Sebastien Leblanc, Head of Consumer Product Management, Proximus
At Proximus, we recognize this need and are delighted to extend our partnership with Synchronoss so that we may continue delivering a convenient, cloud backup service to our subscribers.
Glenn Lurie, President and CEO, Synchronoss
Providing a carrier branded, easy-to-use, secure backup service that works across any platform not only delivers an important value-add to subscribers from a brand that they already trust, but also creates new revenue streams for the telecom providers.
