Just like the simple access to PlayChess.com, all you need to access the cloud is a ChessBase account.

 

 

Here is a description of what possibilities are offered by the web based access to the cloud server.

 

Although access is free of charge, the full functionality of the cloud is only available if you have an active and unlocked ChessBase account. You can log in with your account or you can create a new account on the web site.

 

Depending on the type of ChessBase membership you have you can create a large number of databases which you can delete again at any time.

 

The databases "My Games", "Repertoire White" and "Repertoire Black" are always installed. If you attempt to delete these databases all the games are removed, but the databases themselves remain in place.

 

Guest access is pointless for this function, so you should create a ChessBase account if you don't already have one.

 

You can access the databases that you have saved on the cloud server with ChessBase with any Internet web browser. The opposite is also possible. You can create data with the web application and then access them later with ChessBase.

 

Storage space for the cloud databases

The amount of storage space you can use depends on the type of PlayChess membership that you have. A free ChessBase account offers you 20 MB storage space. That is roughly 10,000 games. Basic membership offers you 100 MB. Premium membership offers you much more, a total of 250 MB.
