Blomp Review

Blomp is one of the newest cloud storage providers that have been introduced to the public in the data storage industry. As a matter of fact, this cloud storage platform has been first heard 2 years ago in 2018. Based on the data and records that I have found, this cloud storage system has been designed and developed in the United States of America. Upon further research, I also have confirmed that there are now currently more than 102,000 people in this planet who have become aware of the presence of the Blomp cloud storage platform and use it on a day-to-day basis. You will know more about all of these things once you read the full Blomp Review I have prepared below.

From the solid user base alone, it is estimated that there are now more than 12 million files that have been actively stored in the cloud storage platform. From that number alone, the cloud storage service provider also claims that the files stored in the cloud have been accessed more than 1 million times already. This further proves that files that have been kept on the Blomp cloud storage platform can really be retrieved without any problem.

Since Blomp is relatively new to the cloud storage industry, nothing much is known about its features and capabilities. This is the reason why I have to personally test this cloud storage platform in order to see whether or not it is worthy of your attention.

Read the entire Blomp Review below if you are interested to know more about my recent discoveries about this cloud storage provider.

Pricing & Plans

Based on my research, I have found out that Blomp has a very simple pricing structure for all of its subscription plans. As a matter of fact, all of the subscription plans need to be regularly paid every single month. Quarterly and annual subscription plans are not available. The only difference is the amount of cloud storage space that I will be able to get upon purchasing a subscription plan. The higher the price of the monthly subscription plans, the higher the cloud storage space will be.

Check the price table that I have created below in order to know more about the price structure of the subscription plans of Blomp cloud storage.


20 GB
Per Month
Free
250 GB
Per Month
0.99$
2 TB
Per Month
2.99$
10 TB
Per Month
9.99$

Aside from the paid subscription plans of Blomp cloud storage, I was also able to find out that I can also open a lifetime free cloud storage account. In this option I will be able to get 20 GB worth of free cloud storage space. I can also invite people to sign up for a free Blomp cloud storage account in order for me to get additional 20 GB cloud storage space. The referral system currently allows me to get as much as 180 GB cloud storage space from 9 people signing for a Blomp account.


Who is it for?

If you just want to get a free cloud storage space without the need for so many advanced features, then Blomp cloud storage may be best for you. The 200 GB free cloud storage space should be enough for your basic data storage needs.


Ease of use

It is quite hard to sign up for a Blomp cloud storage account. First and foremost, to choose one of the subscription plans that are displayed in the main webpage of Blomp’s website. After that, I need to click the “Sign Up” menu button corresponding the subscription plan chosen. It will then redirect me to a page where the registration form will appear. Then I need to type a valid e-mail address and select a password which will be used in order to register for an account with this particular cloud storage service provider.

However, I also need to type my name as well as create a support forum username before the registration procedure can proceed. I also need to check the box allocated for the consent on the provisions of the “Terms & Conditions.” This makes the registration procedure quite complicated. I need to click the “Register” button and then verify my account through e-mail.  I encountered a few bugs too during the registration process.

 In order to access the web user interface, I just need to type my e-mail address and password and then click the “Log-in” button. The downloadable installer files of the desktop client version of Blomp cloud storage is available both in the dashboard of my account and in the main webpage of Blomp’s website. On top of that, I found out that there are desktop client versions for Windows, Mac, as well as Linux.

File previews & edits

It is very unfortunate that I can’t actually preview document files as well as pictures and videos using the web user interface of Blomp. I can’t also edit document files which is really not a good sign.


File syncing

Since the desktop client version of Blomp has too many bugs and too many issues, it can’t be used in order to sync files from your local computer to the cloud. As a matter of fact, I can’t even open the desktop client version of Blomp for Windows. This is the reason why I resorted to uploading files and folders to the cloud using its web user interface.

Uploading files and folders using the web user interface of Blomp cloud storage platform is relatively easy. All I have to do is access the feature through the “My Files” menu option in the dashboard of the web user interface of the cloud storage platform. Then I just need to click the “Upload Files” button so that I will be redirected to a page where the upload box can be accessed. After that, I just need to immediately drag and drop a specific file or a specific folder in the box provided so that the upload process will start automatically.

Clicking the upload box is another process that I can use as an alternative to the “drag and drop” method. Once I do that, the existing files and folders on your computer will appear on the screen and then I just need to select which one I’m going to actually upload. I also found out that there is a 5 GB upload file size limit for this cloud storage platform. However, you can have as many file chunks as you want which makes the upload file size limit virtually unlimited. On top of that, I have discovered that Blomp has no imaginary drive system available on its cloud storage platform.


File sharing

I’m really quite disappointed upon knowing that Blomp cloud storage has no file sharing capabilities. This means that work collaboration through file sharing would definitely be impossible using this cloud storage provider.


Retrieving files

Retrieving files stored on the cloud is relatively easy. All I have to do is to actually click the download button that can be found on the right side of a particular file stored on the cloud. It is actually not surprising to also learn that I can only download individual files from the cloud. There is currently no option as of this moment that will allow me to download an entire folder using the web user interface of Blomp cloud storage.

On top of that, I recently discovered that Blomp lacks additional features that can usually be found in reliable cloud storage systems. In fact, Blomp has no file versioning system. It also does not have a trash bin.

Security

In terms of privacy and security measures, Blomp cloud storage has actually greatly failed. This is primarily because it does not have 256-bit AES encryption. The developers of the cloud storage platform are very silent with regards to the type of data encryption used. It also does not possess a client-side encryption. On top of that, the privacy policy page of Blomp literally admits that it shares information about its customers and service subscribers to 3rd parties. Moreover, since Blomp is created in the United States of America, the cloud storage system is very susceptible to security vulnerabilities posed by the CLOUD Act as well as the PATRIOT Act.


Online support

The online customer support system of Blomp is quite limited. It does not have user manuals and does not have troubleshooting guides. It also does not have a frequently asked questions (FAQ) page. Aside from that, there is no live chat support nor phone support system available. However, I found out that it has a forum page but the content is still quite limited.

 Moreover, I can just send an e-mail to support@blomp.com as part of the customer support system. I can also contact a forum administrator by filling the contact support form.

Additional features

I regret to inform you that there are no additional features available for the Blomp cloud storage platform aside from the mobile application programs for both Android and iOS.

Conclusion

Blomp cloud storage lacks a lot of feature present in a reliable cloud storage provider. My privacy and information security are also at risk because of the absence of 256-bit AES encryption. It also does not have file sharing capabilities. The customer support system is also very limited. On top of that, the desktop client version of Blomp is not working and has too many bugs that needs to be fixed. I definitely would not recommend Blomp as a cloud storage provider. Finding an alternative cloud storage would be my course of action.



We hope you found our Blomp review useful. If you have any unanswered questions feel free to ask them in the comments section down below and I’ll answer them shortly!

  1. The fact that it’s impossible to get 2x10TB or 3x10TB and that you have to upgrade to the $99/mo plan once you go 11TB makes blomp a scam… I would give them 0/10

  2. I’ve been using Blomp for a couple months now, and I love that it gives me 40GB for free. It’s great for storing personal files and photos, and I haven’t had any major issues. Would love to see file-sharing options in the future, but for now, it’s a good free cloud storage alternative!

  3. Blomp does NOT give 200gb free cloud storage. They give 20gb for each person you refer and when that person joins, they have to login monthly or Blomp will remove that storage. When I did join many years ago, it never said any of that at the joining area. I was never aware of any of it. I fought them and today they informed me they are closing my account against my wishes, giving me less than 2 days notice AND did something such that I can’t copy my files. Basically I will be losing all my files because Blomp, like an angry child, is throwing a temper tantrum. DON’T trust Blomp with your files. I am so sorry I did.

    1. Hey Elaine

      We’re sorry for any confusion about our referral program. We’ve always required logins to ensure storage remains active, but we understand if you felt like the messaging may not have been as clear in the past. To better serve our users, we’ve made improvements, and changed the policy—users only need to log in once per year instead of every month to be considered active, and we’ve increased free storage to 40GB from the get go! We promise you, there are many more improvements that we’d love for you to try.

      As for account closures, we never delete files without multiple notifications. If you believe your account was closed in error, please contact our support team at support@blomp.com, and we’ll look into it right away.​

      We value our users so much and are committed to making Blomp better every day. Thank you for your feedback!

  4. Blomp is the most deceitful company I have ever dealt with. They trick you into referring friends but leave out the part that your friends have to login every month. If your friends don’t, they lose their storage and you lose YOUR storage that you received for referring them. So you CAN’T trust them to keep your files safe as they hold them hostage and try to use it to get you to pay for storage. So much for the FREE storage they claim to give. In my case, they also tricked me by saying they put back my storage and it was back for less than ONE day.

    1. Hey there, Blomper.. We’re sorry to hear about your frustration. We’ve always been transparent about our free storage program, and you can find all the details both on our homepage, and support forum. However, I do want to mention our newest updates with you.

      For example, our initial requirement of logging in once a month to be considered active has now changed to once a year! A lot of customers have loved this update ever since we rolled it out and we’d like you to experience it too.

      We’ve doubled our free plan from 20GB to 40GB to bring even more value to our users. Nope, we did not stop there. You now can invite your friends, and Instead of earning 20GB per invite, you now get 40GB for every friend who signs up!! If you want to give Blomp a try, we promise you we will have our Blomp team help you out with anything you need. You can always reach out to us on support@blomp.com.

    1. We appreciate your enthusiasm! If you have any specific feedback, we’d love to hear it —whether it’s a feature request, a concern, or just general thoughts about your experience with Blomp. Let us know how we can help! You can reach out to us on support@blomp.com. Your input helps us improve!

  5. Insecure?! Use it for rclone backups. These are client side encrypted, so even if they use FTP and post your files on the interwebs you should be good.
    So, IMHO if they have a half-decent backup policy, the service is worth the money.

    1. “Thank you for sharing your thoughts on Blomp. We appreciate users who take security seriously, and we agree that client-side encryption provides an added layer of protection. We are always working to improve our security features and usability.

      If you have any specific security concerns or feature requests, we’d love to hear them! Feel free to reach out to our support team on support@blomp.com, and we’ll do our best to assist.”

  6. I subscribed to the 2TB plan 8 months ago to store my movie collection. Blomp has inexcusable problems.
    1) Movies often do not upload into the folder I selected and I frequently find them by accident in the most unexpected of places. (I created a separate database to tell me where to find them. – Moving them to where I want them is very hit-and-miss).
    2) There is no general search engine that will search all my folders to look for them. (I can search individual folders but not my entire system). This is a problem because I have uploaded hundreds of folders.
    3) For the last 2 months I cannot open (or download) anything from a primary folder that contains more than half (1.1 TB) of my uploaded data. (It contains about 200 sub-folders and thousands of files).
    4) All of my requests to support for help with this problem go unanswered.

    I believe that my experience with BLOMP is relevant and important for any prospective customers. I an supply supporting documents for all of this.

    1. Hey David

      Thank you for sharing your experience with Blomp. We completely understand how frustrating those issues must have been, and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience you faced in 2022. At that time, Blomp was still in its early beta phase, and thanks to valuable feedback lie yours, we’ve since made major improvements.

      Here’s what’s changed since then:
      ✅ Enhanced file organization – making it easier to find and manage your files. (Search functionality is also on our roadmap, along with other exciting updates!)
      ✅ Optimized handling of large folders – ensuring smooth access, even for high-volume storage.
      ✅ Dedicated support team and forum – with 24-hour response times for customer queries.

      There’s more!
      We have increased our free plan.. actually, we’ve doubled it! From 20 GB to 40 GB. Plus, for every successful invite, you get an extra 40 GB – Just like that!
      ​And we do not stop there. We also extended the login requirement as well. You no longer need to log in monthly to stay active. Now, you only need to log in once a year to keep your account active.​

      We’d love for you to experience these improvements firsthand. If you’re interested, simply reach out to us at support@blomp.com, and we’ll be happy to set things up for you.

      We truly appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you back to Blomp!
