If you're not planning on backing up very large files (such as large video files or disc images), this is by far the better-value option. This tariff has 100GB of storage space but only allows for a 2GB maximum file size. You can also get a Box Starter account for $5 (around £3) per month. This is the same price as a 100GB Dropbox account, although the file size restriction does make it slightly less flexible. This gets you 100GB of storage and the ability to store individual files of up to 5GB in size. This means that if you want a file to be accessible from anywhere, you'll need to move it into that folder.īox offers 10GB of free storage which, unlike with some services such as Dropbox, can't be increased through bonuses or referral schemes, or you can upgrade to the paid Personal price plan for $10 (around £6) a month. In a similar way to Dropbox, Copy, Google Drive and OneDrive, Box will only synchronise files stored in the Box Sync folder on your PC. Its products are primarily aimed at businesses, but it also has free and paid-for personal accounts.

Box is a synchronisation service that not only allows you to access your files from anywhere, but also share and collaborate on them.
