OneDrive.
If u gonna pay for Office which the majority will need, worth it. At RM 28 monthly with 1TB space and Office license for 5 PCs. Google Drive not worth it. The stupid desktop all kept crashing on both Mac and PC. Dropbox best for the enterprise but a bit expensive for home users. iCloud is pure rubbish. It ties u down to iOS.

If you’re on Apple ecosystem.
iCloud wins due to just how seamless it is between Mac. iPad. iPhone. If you’re on android, google photos. But I typically prefer Dropbox. Faster upload/download. And I don’t encounter corrupted downloads like with google drive (>10gb videos). One drive/ teams is pretty good too on windows. Won’t like their online version of excel though. Lags when the excel is complicated. This post has been edited by LegendLee: Oct 27 2020, 10:55 AM |

Microsoft has the best track record on privacy and security compared to the others. Google for sure will milk any data you have.

own both OneDrive 1TB & Google Drive 100GB
Before OneDrive upgrade... it was slow and always face sync error... So mainly use GDrive most of the time... re-visit OneDrive 1TB last year and never look back... migrated 70% of my data to One Drive and keep GDrive for work purpose... both sync rate is equally good now... |

With Apple One RM19.90 for 50GB iCloud, apple music, apple tv+, and apple arcade, it's a clear choice if you use an iphone.
Google and Microsoft don't even have anything near that offers. 🤭 |

True, but if you want large storage for cheap, there is an option.Apple one family plan about double that price but with 200GB storage only. Unlimited google drive for business 10USD/month, but you need to have 1 domain name. |

Switched from Dropbox to OneDrive due to pricing. Both support camera uploads on Android/iOS. In terms of app stability and functionality Dropbox wins hands down. IMHO if you don’t need 2TB storage OneDrive is the better option since it comes bundled with Office 365.
I’m on Apple’s ecosystem but I find iCloud is a pain. Yes the photo sync is good, but space is limited and pricing isn’t as competitive as the other options. |

Spotify wins in terms of user interface and ease of use. I’m on Apple’s ecosystem but I find iCloud is a pain. Yes the photo sync is good, but space is limited and pricing isn’t as competitive as the other options. and iCloud isn't easy to use. Everything is done in the background, and I have no idea what has been uploaded/backup. Onedrive looks very integrated into PC. This post has been edited by Chrono-Trigger: Nov 10 2020, 09:29 PM |
