"Looking at a feature to feature comparison of FileDen and CX offerings, consumers will note that the feature set is essentially similar but the FileDen user experience and data security will be significantly enhanced by transitioning to CX," said Brad Robertson CEO of CX. "Together, CX and FileDen will deliver easy to use and effective solutions from image hosting to secure online backups without having those annoying downloads. FileDen even has an MP3 Convertor for music enthusiasts that want to store their music in the cloud while remaining independent of e-retailer tied storage solutions."
