Start there, and only go shopping if you have a specific reason to.\n\n**1. Google Workspace (Google Drive)** - My default recommendation for most remote teams. Real-time co-editing in Docs/Sheets is still the best collaborative experience available, sharing links \"just work\" for outside collaborators, and it's browser-first, which matters when your team is on mixed hardware. Starts around $7/user/month.\n\n**2. Microsoft 365 (OneDrive + SharePoint)** - The right answer if you're already on Microsoft or Teams. Deep Office integration, strong enterprise security and compliance, and you're likely paying for it already. Business Standard is $15/user/month with desktop apps; standalone OneDrive for Business is ~$5-10.\n\n**3. Dropbox Business** - Pick this if syncing across many devices and locations is the actual pain point. It's still the most reliable sync engine of the bunch and the easiest for non-technical people to understand. Standard is ~$12.50/user/month for 5 TB. Weaker as a document collaboration tool - it's storage, not a suite.\n\n**4. Box** - For", "answer_truncated": true, "measurement": "One answer from one engine on one date.
