Why you may need an alternative for Google Drive:
While Google Drive is widely used for cloud file storage and offers smooth integration with Google Workspace apps, some users may need tools with stronger admin controls, enhanced privacy features or better handling of large media files. For those looking to improve team collaboration, file management or external sharing capabilities, options such as Dropbox Business or iCloud may be a better option.
Although Google Drive’s interface is praised for being accessible, familiar and easy to navigate, some teams may outgrow its core functionality. Advanced file organization, flexible permission settings, or offline access features are not always reliable, which can be limiting for businesses managing complex or sensitive content. Occasional syncing issues, limited free storage or poor support for non-Google formats are also cited as reasons to explore alternative platforms.

Our Methodology
Our objective research is based on market demand signals along with an analysis of our proprietary data, including product information and verified user ratings and reviews, as of February 2026.
To be eligible, products had to meet at least one of the following criteria:
- Be considered a popular Google Drive alternative based on our analysis of online search trends where users compare the two systems.
- Emerge as one of the top-mentioned products in Software Advice reviews that reviewers switched to from Google Drive, or considered as alternatives when selecting Google Drive.
- Show popular demand in a software category shared with Google Drive by being among the products that users most commonly inquire about on its Software Advice profile page.
- Rank among one of the highest-rated Google Drive competitors.
The selected products also met these requirements:
- Have at least 20 published reviews in the past 2 years as of the analysis period.
- Demonstrate U.S. market presence based on factors such as the availability of U.S.-based reviews and product website research.
In certain cases, depending on the product we’re considering alternatives for, we may expand our selection criteria based on our market insights to ensure we’re providing the best options for buyers.
To offer users a varied selection of vendors to consider, we restrict the number of products from the same software vendor on the list. If several products from the same vendor qualify for inclusion, we select the one most often searched as a Google Drive competitor according to online search trends.
