There's one answer for you.
- braderhart 9y agoLook into GSuite and see what else you get, in addition to archiving support for Google Drive... and actually, GSuite is unlimited storage... sorry Dropbox, but you lose in terms of price and features.
- danieldk 9y agoDepends on what features you need. I don’t need unlimited storage. Dropbox’ sync is far more reliable (see my other comment). Dropbox has Paper, which supports LaTeX equations and can be exported as Markdown. Dropbox has great integration with Microsoft Office and Office Online. Dropbox supports file requests. The only relevant feature for me that Google Apps offers over Dropbox is email. But I highly prefer FastMail, which respects standards (IMAP, CaldDAV, CardDAV) and not Googles broken implementations.
- untog 9y agoSure, but if you literally just want somewhere to store files, then Dropbox is cheaper. That's one reason why someone might prefer it.
- 8ytecoder 9y agoYou are comparing a monthly plan against an annual plan. Google's annual plan costs $100. Only very slightly more expensive. In addition they have a 200gb plan which is enough for people like me
- untog 9y agoFair point, though I'm surprised Google doesn't promote that more, on the pricing page I can't see yearly pricing mentioned anywhere.
