My Cloud Home

My Cloud Home is a basic product with no features to manage drive. Their is no administrative account to oversee invitees accounts. You also are not able to access it without an account. When I sent back my My Live Book, I thought I was getting a similar functioning drive but I was wrong. You cannot use any of the WD backup products available only Windows 10 file history. I wish WD would add some feature to see it on my local network and manage the drive.

Doesn't work with Acronis True Image

It was easy to set up and worked, but I eventually found out that it would not work with Acronis True Image backup software. Partly my fault because I didn't ask the right questions before purchase, and I eventually was shown the page where that limitation was revealed, but it isn't in the upfront description.

Hardware working okay; Acronis software not

Thankfully I'm an IT guy because "My Cloud Home" is not easy to setup and install. You see the term "Home" and think it will be easy-as-pie for anyone. It isn't. They don't make it clear that there a new separate Discovery app for My Cloud Home. And forget trying to install the promised Acronis backup software -- it is not compatible (you have to figure that out on your own). Acronis is the single biggest reason I bought a WD NAS unit. Not having Acronis work, and not spelling that out before purchase, is a HUGE disappointment. WD has always been our gold-standard, sadly not now.
