Dropbox is in my experience the easiest to use; it is easy to upload and share documents across mobile devices. That being said it is more consumer focused than business oriented, although they are making efforts to beef up their business offering. Box.com is more enterprise oriented - you can easily set up data rooms among internal and external teams of users; however I find Box's usability across different devices (laptops, iphone/pad, etc.) to be more difficult and cumbersome. My company is currently beta testing enterprise box. Both dropbox and box are easily scalable based on number of users. My understanding from my IT department is that Skydrive/OneDrive does not have the level of encryption and security that box and dropbox (and other cloud services) have.

Installing the Google Drive Sync app on your PC/laptop makes the use of Drive quite painless. Drag a document to the drive folder and a few seconds later it's shared with your team. You can control who has access to the folders and files by right clicking and selecting Google Drive from the context menu. The files are still stored locally as well, so you can get at them even while offline; your changes will be synced the next time you connect.
The app occasionally has a hiccup where it causes high CPU utilization (mostly when there's been a network interruption of some sort). Quitting and restarting the app fixes it, though. |

Of course, but it doesn't do much in the way of versioning or collaboration on non-google apps style documents.

Goggle Docs or Office 365 would be my recommendation.
If OP really only wants storage then AWS or similar might serve just as well as anything. (Cue jokes about EU data compliance) |

Neither can guarantee EU data compliance.

I remember seeing an article about a cloud service called Microsoft Azure, is it the same as office365?
