File storage and sync

Sync and share files across devices from storage you control, instead of paying for cloud storage plans.

Paid products in this category

Box sells cloud file storage, sharing and business content tools. The alternatives cover file access and sharing rather than Box's full governance, AI and e-signature platform.

3 open-source alternatives → Dropbox See pricing page

Hosted cloud storage with desktop and mobile apps that keep a folder in sync across devices, plus share links, file version history and recovery, camera uploads and team folders. Storage space, history length and transfer limits grow with paid plans.

10 open-source alternatives → Google Photos See pricing page

Hosted photo and video library with automatic phone backup, search by faces, places and objects, shared albums and a timeline and map view. Free storage is shared with Gmail and Drive; more space is a paid Google One subscription, which is what most people are replacing.
