Google Drive Tutorials

Can you sync Google Drive and Box?

If you want to sync Google Drive to Box so that you can back up a few folders or your entire Google Drive, you can use Google Takeout and get the job done automatically.

Does Box work with Google Docs?

You can use Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides with Google Drive, or other cloud storage providers, like Box, Dropbox, or Egnyte.

Which is better Google Drive or Box?

The difference is that Google drive can sync files up to 750 GB per day, while Box can sync files up to 150 GB per day. When the file sync limits of both clouds are exceeded, the sync tasks will no longer be possible to run in the same day.
