[Technology] Sml Buisness: Google Drive v Apple iCloud v Microsoft

Bold Seagull said:

I've been backing up to various services, well, lots of them with ODrive Sync, but really need to commit to a platform.

My Google Account seems the best platform at the moment, I like the templates on Google Docs, Google Photos works well as does Google Drive. I want to be a bit more efficient in producing gant charts, to do lists etc.

Most of my hardware is Apple though, so iCloud is also an option.

I have a Microsoft account as well, but not sure the interface works as well.

This is about starting to use a platform a bit more seamlessly than I have been. I've been more of that traditional application from your computer running, then backing up thereafter. Cloud apps and docs seems to allow a far greater degree of flexible working, backing up and productivity.

Any thoughts or experiences of preferred services?

For small business personally I'd avoid Google. While there is a lot of benefits, they have been pretty ruthless in the past which changing products / dropping products at a drop of a hat.

Microsoft are probably a safe bet. Or Apple like you've mentioned.

Do you have email? Could you go full Office 360 ?
