Google Drive

Google Drive stores and shares files across Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS. Google accounts include up to 15 GB, and listed storage options reach 5 TB per user; additional storage can be requested, with costs that vary. Users can grant edit, comment, or view permissions and set expiration dates for shared files. Shared drives let teams store, access, and manage files together, and file versioning is available. The mobile app can scan receipts and billing statements into searchable PDFs. Drive integrates with Google Workspace apps and services including Slack, Zoom, Salesforce, Atlassian, and SAP. Security and administration options include ransomware detection, client-side encryption, Vault, DLP policies, and Workspace management controls. Drive for desktop offers ransomware detection and file recovery, while Gemini in Drive can find, summarize, and analyze files with AI. Google One Basic is listed at $1.99 a month for 100 GB; Google AI Plus is $9.99 a month for 2 TB, and Google AI Pro is $19.99 a month for 5 TB. Google Workspace offers a 14-day trial.
