I had the opposite impression. Dropbox sync was constantly making conflict files while Google Drive Sync (now replaced by File Stream) was able to more gracefully determine which file was newer. File stream adds the benefit of just keeping a stub file on all of my machines, then not actually downloading the file until I need it (you can, of course, specify which folders to always keep a downloaded copy of).

That being said, I had conflicts with Dropbox when opening a Visual Studio solution on a directory mapped through a junction point, which made me unsure about how reliable is their filessystem driver.
