2021 Best Picks: Cloud Storage and Online Drive

One of the best innovations of the world wide web is the cloud storage or online driver where you can save all of your files. No more saving on the hard drive of your computers or laptops, that just takes up so much space and slows down the performance of your device. Plus! You can access your files on any device, any time, anywhere.

But, of course, we need to know which ones are the best. Here are our top picks:

Sync

This cloud service is great for saving and sharing confidential and sensitive data. You don’t need to register for an account to access links shared from this cloud service. It supports almost all operating systems, provides unlimited data transfer for all plans, has no limits for storage for team users, and can seamlessly integrate with Slack and Microsoft Office.

Icedrive

It is the first of its kind to support Twofish encryption for better securing transferred data. You will be able to transfer files to your clients without them knowing a single thing about you. You can store up to 10GB of files for free. Another great feature is how quick syncing is with this service. And, you can stream media and share with your friends.

Microsoft OneDrive

Google Drive

Just like Microsoft OneDrive, you have access not only to Google Drive when you sign up for a Google account but also to Google’s other office applications such as Google Docs, Google Sheets, Google Slides, Google Forms, and many more. And, all of the documents that you create using these applications are automatically saved in your Google Drive which allows you up to 15GB of storage.
