How to compare cloud storage
Cloud storage is not just capacity. Compare security, sharing controls, sync behavior, version history, and total cost per user.
Key comparison criteria
- Security: encryption, MFA, recovery options.
- Sharing: permissions, link expiry, access controls.
- Sync: clients, speed, conflict handling.
- Versioning: history and restore options.
- Cost: per seat, per TB, add-ons.
Use cases
Personal
Backup, photos, docs.
Team
Shared folders, permissions, auditing.
FAQ
More space or more control?
