1 min read
Summary
Dropbox and Google Drive are two of the most popular options for cloud storage available, with many people using one or the other, or both, to store files.
While both have much in common, there are also many differences that could sway a buyer towards one or the other.
This article compares Dropbox and Google Drive side-by-side, looking at everything from price, to user interface, to the number of third-party integrations each allows and concludes that the best platform depends on the individual needs of the user.
For example, Google Drive offers the most free storage (15GB compared to Dropbox’s 2GB) as well as a simpler user interface, but Dropbox is more flexible, more secure and has better storage management features.
Dropbox starts at 11.99permonth(or99 annually) for 2TB of storage, while Google Drive starts at 1.99permonth(or19.99 annually) for 100GB.
Dropbox has more third-party integrations, particularly with creative software, but Google integrates with itself – with apps like Docs, Sheets and Slides as well as Gmail and Google Calendar.
