Bitcasa has witnessed growth:

  the Infinite Drive
  – with adoption in both large (US, UK,
  Germany and Japan) and small markets (Switzerland, South
  Africa, and the Solomon Islands).

• The company has more than 18PB of user data
  under management, a 13% increase in just the past month.

• The conversion rate to paid subscribers is
  tracking above average, and in many cases users are enthralled with the value
  proposition and upgrade to the paid service in less than 10 days.

"Imagine
a world in which you never have to worry about gigabytes – users across the
world have realized this dream with our Infinite Drive," said Tony
Gauda, CEO of Bitcasa. "The
impressive growth we have experienced is evidence that infinite storage and
frustration-free sharing is the way of the future. It is the way we will
connect on any device without ever having to worry about running out of space
or backing up your data. Bitcasa is the future of storage. And the future is
today."

Users are enjoying simpler digital
life:

  videos with grandparents. Grandma streams it from Bitcasa with no file size
  limits and no email attachment frustrations.

• Moms are taking pictures and videos on
  their iOS and Android phones, and know they are uploaded to Bitcasa. From
  there, it’s shared with family friends.

• Students are storing their class notes and
  documents, knowing they are backed up, encrypted, and accessible from their
  tablets, phones, and laptops.

• Home users are backing up their important
  folders or their entire hard drive. With Bitcasa folder mirroring and
