# 2 Google Drive alternatives for Mac

Canonical page: https://macbase.app/alternatives/google-drive

Google's cloud storage for keeping, syncing and sharing files, with a desktop app for the Mac.

Google Drive ties your files to a Google account and shares its space with Gmail and Google Photos. Most people who switch want end-to-end encryption, closer ties to Finder, a different price, or syncing that never touches the cloud.
