Setting this up is as simple as scanning a QR code into a smartphone app, as shown below: SecureDocs requires additional authentication by default for all of its logins, while the others I mention have it as an option.

If someone manages to download your files without your login, they shouldn’t be able to do anything with them. Support for Android, iOS, and web clients to browse shared directories and folders on the go as well.

*Credit card required to activate free trial Popular secure file-sharing services compared Vendor Egnyte, SecureDocs, ShareFile, and SugarSync are just a few of the more popular services here’s a chart with a rough comparison of how much they cost and what they offer to start: Instead, you should consider an enterprise-grade cloud-based file-sharing service, one that adds more layers of protection by encrypting your data, and that has fine-tuned access control. They’re adequate for single-use sharing or sharing files across your own devices, but they’re not my preferred solution. Even so, they’re often second-rate when it comes to user experience (Dropbox’s collaboration features can be confusing, iCloud and Windows have a complicated relationship, and Box’s file preview feature doesn’t do such a great job).

But if you are contemplating these services, everyone in your sharing circle should use two-factor authentication (such as Authy) to access them, not just a username and password. Many of these are free or nearly so for minimal use. Some companies won’t risk it: With one of my clients, I had to get a new email address on their domain to share their Google Docs.īesides Google Workspace and OneDrive, there are more than a dozen different providers of personal file-sharing services, including Dropbox, Box, and Apple’s iCloud. We’ve all seen the news stories where a database or collection of documents fell into the wrong hands because someone failed to apply the appropriate security. The more convoluted you make your sharing situation, the greater the potential for a mistake where the world (or perhaps family members) gain access to your files. You might inadvertently share the document with people who shouldn’t see it, or lock someone out who needs access. While built-in collaboration tools like Google Workspace or Microsoft OneDrive (or something equivalent based on your email identity) can solve the version control problem - and might be your only option if your company insists - they can become cumbersome the moment your team expands beyond your office domain. Google Drive and OneDrive have their flaws, too
