## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-10-24 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> Here's what I'd actually recommend, roughly in the order I'd suggest trying them:
> 
> **1. Google Workspace (Drive) - ~$7-14/user/mo.** The default answer for most remote teams under ~200 people. Real-time co-editing is still the best in the business, search is excellent, nothing to install, and everyone already knows how to use it. Weakness: it's a file store, not a records system - thin on retention policies, approval workflows, and structured metadata.
> 
> **2. Microsoft SharePoint / OneDrive (via Microsoft 365) - SharePoint Plan 1 from $5/user/mo, Business Standard ~$12.50.** The right pick if your team is already on Office, or if you need genuine document *management*: version control, retention labels, permissions inheritance, and compliance controls. It's cheap for what you get. The tradeoff is that SharePoint is genuinely complicated - budget for someone to own the information architecture, or it degrades into a folder swamp within a year.
> 
> **3. Box - Business plan ~$20/user/mo (range roughly $5-35 depending on tier).** My recommendation when external collaboration and compliance are the hard requirement: client/vendor portals, granular share controls, HIPAA/GDPR tooling, strong
