Watch Out Dropbox, Google's At It Again!

Just wanted to share some quick info on a new tech tool that's worth checking out called Google Drive.Google Drive Now, we keep pretty busy each day creating real estate business cards and postcards for our clients, and we rely on all kinds of technology to keep the machine running smoothly! In a recent article I talked briefly about some of the benefits of using Dropbox which is another great tool we use in our business. Having the ability to quickly and easily share documents within our office, without the need for dedicated servers or other complicated network scenarios has been a great solution for our needs.

Recently, however, an old kid on the block came along with a new toy! Google Drive is very similar to Dropbox but has one major advantage...it costs a lot less when you need more space! All in all, cloud storage solutions like this are a great way to protect yourself from lost files, so whether you go Google or not, you'd do good to take advantage of this great technology that really does make our lives easier! You can find more on Google Drive here.

Hi Nic,

Both Google Drive and Dropbox are excellent storage services.

In fact, you can use both Dropbox and Google Drive as a backup destination to backup all your data from other cloud services. For example, if you use Evernote and Sugarsync, it might good to backup all notes and files to either Google Drive or Dropbox.

So do check out cloudHQ (http://cloudHQ.net) - cloudHQ can backup and synchronize all your files from Dropbox Google Docs, Evernote, SugarSync, Box, and even Basecamp projects.
