Last we heard from Pogoplug, it had unleashed its Series 4 hardware (its current device for making any of your drives network accessible). Today, the corporate, known for its pursuit to make the cloud more "personal," has shifted its gears back to software, aiming directly at businesses with a brand new service dubbed Pogoplug Team. On basic level, Team is the same to the software-based version of Pogoplug, enhancing the experience with goodies like multiple accounts and entire customization to compare your businesses' look. Interestingly, Pogoplug isn't including storage options for Team's pricing scheme, but instead charging $15 a year for every user (minimum of 3 required) -- meaning your users dictate the quantity of space for storing needed with their very own computers and drives, in place of utilizing remote servers as with other major services like Google Drive or SkyDrive. Better yet, current Pogoplug users can upgrade to Team if they're interested. Curious for your entire details? There is a nifty press release just after the break.
