Getting Started with Cloud Storage

Last updated Apr 25, 2026

What is Cloud Storage?

Cloud Storage gives your clients a private, branded file storage platform — like Dropbox or Google Drive, but running under your reseller brand. They get drag-and-drop uploads, folder organization, sharing links, team collaboration, and trash recovery.

Logging in

  1. Direct your client to your storefront's storage portal — it runs on your own domain at your-storefront.com/storage (for example shop.yourbrand.com/storage), fully white-labeled with no third-party domain. The exact link is included in the welcome email sent when you activate their account.
  2. They enter their email and password
  3. Click Sign in
  4. The eye icon next to the password toggles show/hide

Security note: After 5 failed login attempts, the account locks for 15 minutes. This protects against brute-force attacks.

Sidebar navigation

Once logged in, the left sidebar groups everything into four sections:

Storage

  • Dashboard — overview of storage usage, file stats, and quick actions
  • My Files — upload, browse, and manage all files and folders
  • Starred — files favorited for quick access
  • Activity — log of every action (uploads, downloads, deletes, shares, etc.)

Collaboration

  • Teams — create teams, invite members, share team files

Sharing

  • Shared Links — manage all public share links in one place

Account

  • Trash — deleted files (can be restored or permanently deleted)
  • Settings — edit profile and change password

The user's email and a logout button sit at the bottom of the sidebar. On mobile, the hamburger menu (three lines) in the top-right opens the sidebar.

Dashboard overview

The Dashboard is the landing page after login. It shows:

  • Stat cards — total files, folders, shared links, teams
  • Storage bar — how much space is used out of the plan
  • Quick action cards — jump to Upload Files, Create Folder, Share Files, or Manage Teams
  • File type breakdown — number of documents, images, videos, etc.

Reseller notes

Cloud Storage is sold by capacity tier — 25 GB, 50 GB, 100 GB, 250 GB, 500 GB, and 1 TB. Plans are managed by you (the reseller) from the panel. Clients see their plan and current usage on the Dashboard and Settings pages, but cannot self-upgrade.
