since the switch from GSuite to Workspace, there is no longer a tariff with unlimited storage space at Google. As a result, many photographers and videographers are dependent on Dropbox Advanced (3x18€)...

Google drive takes so much time to open or upload things! Dropbox let you see preview of zip files

[@FarelForever]

Perhaps this is silly, but I consider switching to Google right now, because DropBox has sooooooo many items in the right-click meny for files and folders. I asked support if this could be tweaked (WinRar does let you select what goes there), and I'm told that its not. Google keeps everything under item that expands to more options, right?

[@AnthonyEsquivel-y6p]

Google looses because when you DL a folder someone sends to you it splits it into 5 zips and splits up all the files randomly. So you have to go in and reorganize. Not to mention their sync function always randomly undoes itself. And I have had files go missing and slowly reappear over the course of a week, Google could not explain this.

What a crappy review. Comparing the free tear of those services cannot be called the Ultimate Showdown. You are just trying to make people click your Google Drive affiliate link. That's ridiculous.

Dropbox is better in many areas, the block-based synchronisation alone is a huge difference to Google. But Dropbox is too expensive and doesn't have an offer that is probably sufficient for most users, something around 100-200 GB for less money, so it's not interesting for me. I have 100GB with Google and it all works perfectly. However, if Dropbox had something similar, e.g. 200GB for 3€ per month, I would probably switch back to Dropbox.

Google don't synch files with special characters, while dropbox synch regardless of filenames.

[@1dreamysky]

Oh a good point! Google can be annoying with this. It gave me headache

Do not use dropbox if you wanna store personal photos, I remember when I was like 11 I uploaded family trip photos and videos with me and my sister, why did I upload them? I don't know I was 11. But the thing is when I came back to look at them years later when I was 17, there were comments from weirdos, I deleted all the photos immediately. Turns out the photos were on public the whole time and I didnt even know .

I think the beat proprietary cloud storage are Dropbox, MEGA and Dropbox. All can be use on desktop and mobile to sync files. But on mobile is not stored on local while on desktop yes. Free Dropbox is 2 GB, Drive 15 GB and MEGA 20 GB. I use Dropbox because has a lot of compatibility with OS'.

[@ArielMartinez_dp]

Is disappointing, you decided to only compare the free versions. Practically makes this video useless for a lot of other users.

[@kyrbies]

unfortunately, the support of "shared drives" under iOS has been solved very poorly by Google. Even the Gmail app can't add files from there as attachments to InApp, because the Drive app can only show "my drive" in Files, so the only way around is via "share" from the Drive app or a third party like File Browser by Stratospherix

[@tube.brasil]

It seems it's not possible anymore to use any cloud service with an external drive on a Mac. Is it true?

[@shaynetran]

also one thing you missed' google drive you can share your storage with a group of 5 ppl that you invite

[@Shak1993]

I’m very interested in switching from DropBox to Google Drive. The user friendliness is what’s pulling me in. My hesitance is transferring from DropBox to Google Drive. I don’t know how and am scarred of losing files.

Your discount links doesent work

[@AbhishekK-ho4qs]

Were you with Strauss in Oppenheimer movie?

[@cheeng1]

Google Drive and Dropbox are so very close (imo), but for me the thing that makes Google win is the integrated apps.

[@rioborzeli147]

[@nazdice7405]

Google drive dekstop app,... usage so much RAM ... for me a reason i went to dropbox.

It´s really annoying that everytime a soundeffect is heard, your voice gets lower in volume. Your voice should be the gold standard. The baseline. I see your video is at -14.1 Lufs, thats ok but not really necessary to be honest. Focus on your voice, soundeffects can still be heard and UNDERSTOOD if lower in volume. And if at certain parts of the video where soundeffects and your voice can be heard at the same time, yes the volume will be louder in this passage, and? who cares? Crank up the limiter or just drop your lufs. I´ve almost never came across a video where i thought "hmm that is really low volume level and low lufs". But your video stands out from anothers by its annoying sound. Although the video quality is great. I hope you take this as a constructive feedback and help. Thanks and kind regards. P.S.1: BTW I run a recording studio since 15 years and make also yt videos. P.S.2: Your voice could muuch better audible with the right processing, now you have to concentrate and turn up the volume for good understanding.
