Worked example
What it makes
The starting criteria for a cloud storage service comparison, with example scores for three unnamed options to show how the weighting works. Your Room uses your own options and scores.
| Criterion (weight) | Option A | Option B | Option C |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fits our office suite (5) | 5/5 | 3/5 | 4/5 |
| Storage per user for the price (4) | 3/5 | 5/5 | 4/5 |
| Sharing with people outside the company (4) | 4/5 | 3/5 | 4/5 |
| Permissions and admin controls (4) | 3/5 | 4/5 | 2/5 |
| Version history and recovery (3) | 4/5 | 3/5 | 4/5 |
| Sync on the devices we use (3) | 3/5 | 4/5 | 2/5 |
| Data residency we need (2) | 4/5 | 3/5 | 3/5 |
| Weighted score | 75.2/100 | 72/100 | 67.2/100 |
Weighted score = sum of (weight × score) ÷ sum of (weight × 5), out of 100.

Questions
About the Cloud Storage Comparison
Does WZRD rate these products?
No. You score each option on your own criteria; WZRD only does the weighted maths and lays out the result. Check prices and features on each vendor's own site, because they change often.
Is this for personal or business storage?
The criteria are written for teams. For personal use, delete the admin criteria and add your own.
