Came here to say this. Unlimited is never good. People get really pissed off when it's not really unlimited. And you immediately will have some people trying it and blogging about it.

I think specific flavors of unlimited make sense. It sounds like Corkboard can offer unlimited storage but with a cap of 50MB on files. The number of people willing to jump through the hoops required to make that truly unlimited is likely very few.

We do a similar thing at LayerVault. We offer unlimited storage and versioning of design files, but only for design files we support.

I would just be worried about them going away because they cannot pay for what they promise. Or because of bad press. I have for instance around 8 TB of log analysis PDFs which are around 20-30 mb per PDF. I know that's a special case but this is then a lot 'cheaper' for me to share with everyone who needs to see that growing amount of files than the way we use now.

Thanks filmgirlcw! We completely understand your concern. Simply put, that's why we're not offering it free. ;) Would love to hear your thoughts.

Why doesn't the plans page say how much storage the free plan has?

Hi glomph. We tried to design that page to show that the free version is remarkably different than the Pro version. Currently, the free version has no file storage -- it's also missing many of the features on the Pro version's list. Let me know if this is confusing.

It certainly is confusing. Saying the paid plan has 'unlimited storage' and not mentioning storage on the free plan strongly implies that the free plan has some storage.

Further how can you claim to be more convenient than dropbox, when for the majority of users (I am pretty sure the majority of dropbox users have free accounts) setting up a payment system just to share say one file represents a massive complication over the alternative.
