In our modern tech society cloud storage is all the rage and
a month ago Dropbox was your only major option. But this month we have seen the
launch of not one but two cloud storage services under the names of Cubby and
Google Drive. Both have proven to be true competitors in the cloud storage wars
and may be giving Dropbox a run for its money. In this article I will go over
my opinion of all three sevices and give you my honest opinion on which one I find
the most useful and reliable.
1. Dropbox
2.
Cubby
3.
Google Drive
The newest member of the cloud storage
family is Google Drive. Now we all new Google would have to release a cloud
storage service in order to keep up with their competitors. Sadly Google drive is
only available on Windows, Mac, and Android without any option for iOS use. But
what Google Drive lacks in software it makes up in features, with the ability
to sync between all your Google services such as Google Docs. While Google
always seems to do great jobs with their software, I Don’t believe Google Drive
is anywhere close to being as good as it could be. Overall it is an excellent
service that I’m sure will only get better in the near future. You can take
advantage of this free5GB storage by downloading the free application on your
computer or Android phone.

Who wins?
All three services offer something that the
other doesn’t. Dropbox is the most stable, Cubby is the most user friendly, and
Google Drive offers the most features. Overall Cubby has proven to be the
better service of all three. Even though the service is still in beta I have
been overly impressed with its easy to use interface. This service is surely
going to take off when the full version of the software is released. I highly
recommend Cubby to anyone who is trying to find the perfect cloud service that
will fit their needs.
