How good is Proton as a paid all-in-one solution for e-mail, calendar, and cloud storage?

@VolumetricShitCompressor

Technically speaking, it's good. But 2 questions:

Do you need end-to-end encrypted emails and cloud storage?
If not, you may find cheaper alternatives (if cost is a thing for you). :)

What would be those alternatives? My main point would be to get away from microsoft with my mail and a somewhat sizable cloud storage (0,5-1 TB).

What about kSuite? Are they better?

@VolumetricShitCompressor

Between Proton & kSuite, both are good, you just need to compare prices and features. :)

Both have beautiful and modern interfaces - you can create a free account on both to test.

Both companies offer very different services from each other included in their suite, e.g., Proton has a VPN and Password Manager, while Infomaniak offer video call, transfer of large files, office online etc.

It also depends on whether you read your emails in a mobile app, browser or email client and the importance you attach to E2E encryption.

So E2E encryption would be Proton and accessing mails on mobile apps would be kSuite, right?
