Selecting iCloud over Microsoft OneDrive may seem like a no-brainer for Apple users, but it might not be that simple. OneDrive 14.2 review Deciding between iCloud and OneDrive is not the same as choosing between two different applications. The Mac and iPhone are so steeped in iCloud that you can't ever fully get rid of it, so you may wonder if you might as well go all-in on iCloud. Besides the obvious factor of iCloud's effortless integration, though, you need to know if you are getting the best value for your money and if the storage capacity meets your needs. Of course, there are other cloud storage services like Dropbox, but here is a comparison of the cloud services of two much larger companies -- Apple and Microsoft. Although iCloud and OneDrive differ in offerings, these two cloud storage services are wildly popular. The best cloud storage solution for you depends on your use case. OneDrive review - What you get for your money Both Apple iCloud and Microsoft OneDrive offer 5GB of storage for free. However, in a world where it's common to shoot 4K videos from an iPhone, 5GB of free storage is practically insulting in 2023. Apple's iCloud offers a maximum of 2TB per paid subscription. This storage limit is plenty for the casual user who only snaps a few photos, but if you frequently shoot Apple ProRAW photos or Apple ProRes videos, you might run out of space before you know it.
