OneDrive is one of the best cloud storage services. It is simple and easy to use, and it has many functions. Those who use Microsoft Office and primarily work on Windows PCs should make this decision. It provides an effective search feature, strong support for collaborative editing, and reliable file-sharing options (including password protection and expiry dates). The majority of platforms are supported, and you can sync files between them or save space by simply downloading files as needed. There’s also a personal vault with 2FA protection. Due to the fact that you can open any file within the program, OneDrive is possibly the best choice for reviewing or editing files. (Even photo editing is possible.)

The free storage is constrained, there is no end-to-end encryption, and only a few features are available on the free and basic tiers. If you use Microsoft Office and Skype, it makes sense to choose them, as they are both included in Microsoft 365 at a good price.

Dropbox is one of the best cloud storage services. It is one of the first cloud storage providers, Dropbox is easily accessible, has support for almost any device, and is dependable. Many users said they have used it for more than ten years, mostly as a simple means of transferring files from one platform to another. It has several integrations and functions well for teamwork (file sharing, coauthoring, and document editing), especially when team members are using various platforms. Yet, the additions make Dropbox better; it supports digital signatures and has a reliable password manager. The mobile app's built-in document scanner is another feature you may like.

End-to-end encryption is not available. Dropbox possesses the key to decrypt your data even if it says it won't look. It may comply with a government request for access, or a rogue employee could conceivably take a peek. Dropbox is also comparatively expensive, and the free version offers limited storage.

IDrive can be your best option if all you want is a digital locker to store your data from numerous sources. You will find tempting introductory prices on high-capacity plans. Most devices are supported, and it is simple to use. For a quicker initial backup with the majority of plans, iDrive will ship you a real external hard drive before transferring the data to your online account. You receive a private encryption key, and there is 2FA. As a result, even if required to do so by law authorities, iDrive cannot decrypt your files.

If collaboration and file-sharing are important to you, IDrive is not the best option because of its limited support for these activities. File uploads on the app can be slow because it is so simple. It's also crucial to avoid getting caught up in the introductory pricing. Examine the regular price first, and if you decide not to stay, be aware that you must manually switch off auto-renew and make plans to migrate your data before your renewal date. If you go above your allowance, be aware of overage fees as well.

Cloud storage services tend to be utilitarian, with rows of folders and file names, but Bublup takes a refreshingly different approach. This service, which is pronounced "bubble up," adds some much-needed flair and pizzazz to file-sharing and backups with a customizable, aesthetically attractive interface. You can drag and drop files using your web browser to create a visual mix of notes, papers, photographs, videos, online connections, and more.

There are also browser extensions and mobile apps available. Group folders are great for things like trip planning and interior design because it's simple to share links between them. Together with the choice to share publicly, the discovery tool also suggests relevant content based on what you have saved in a folder.

Your data is stored by Bublup using Amazon Web Services (AWS) (everything is saved multiple times in multiple U.S. locations). Web browser connections use Transport Layer Security, and data is encrypted using AES-256 both in transit and at rest (TLS). Bublup also makes a commitment to keep all of your information private. Regrettably, 2FA is not available, although login alerts are provided.

iCloud is a simple option for someone who only uses Apple products. It is well-designed, easy to use, and completely compatible with iOS and macOS. It is intended to operate largely discreetly in the background. Online editing and file sharing are available for Pages, Numbers, and Keynote files. Documents can also be password-protected and collaboratively edited. The use of 2FA is supported. If you sign up for an iCloud+ plan, you can use iCloud Private Relay to secure your browsing privacy. If you have a HomeKit security camera or video doorbell, you'll want HomeKit Secure Video, which lets you establish temporary email addresses rather than exposing your own.

There is no Android support for iCloud, however, it works with Windows. iCloud still feels basic in comparison to the majority of competing cloud storage providers, despite improvements. (There isn't even a search feature available on the online interface.) Although Apple's security is generally good, file versioning is only available for the files of its productivity apps, and end-to-end encryption is not widely supported.

SpiderOak One Backup is a product to consider if you're concerned about security and privacy. It operates under a zero-trust, no-knowledge policy, encrypting everything from end to end so that only you have access to your data. Plans have limitless devices and file versions but are priced per person. To prevent man-in-the-middle attacks, SpiderOak also uses transport layer security (TLS) for data in transit. (TLS is the SSL's replacement.) Security is valued by the service, and SpiderOak has openly stated policies. Support for Windows, Mac, or Linux is available, along with reliable recovery options, file versioning, and flexible file-sharing options including self-destructing links.

There is no support for mobile apps, and SpiderOak is relatively pricey. It's a strange omission for a company that focuses on security that there is no 2FA for web logins. You should keep your password secure since SpiderOak cannot reset it if you forget it and if someone gets it, they can access your stuff.

• Can slow down your machine

Significant discounts are available with annual payments. All business plans support unlimited users, unlimited server backups, and unlimited external drive connections.
