DropBox no doubt, it's been around for a while, very reliable, very responsive, syncs files instantly. I have staff having conversation on the phone and files are synced in the matter of seconds between two geographical locations.
I have tried one drive, mozy sync, and nothing beets dropbox. There is no worse frustration when employees call you up because files are not synchronized, especially top level management...
Microsoft keeps changing its plans for one drive every now and then, in the beginning, Microsoft sync, then sky drive, and now one drive, who knows what's in the future... Staff get very confused when things are changing quite frequently.
Accessibility: both of them have pluses and minuses, but overall both seem to be quite accessible and manageable with JFW or NVDA. Can't say anything though about the top dropbox package for admins because I'm not there yet, do not need like 1 TB of space just yet and portal to manage all the accounts. Both of them work great in windows explore, the start menu app for one drive is somewhat gloomy in windows 8, never use it.
Dropbox works on the domain account, but will not work properly with roaming profiles, something to consider if roaming profiles are in place. I have upgraded our server to win2k12 R2 last summer, folder redirection and no roaming profiles and dropbox works perfect, can't say much about one drive, do not use it at work.
Do not remember exact numbers for 100 GB of dropbox space, but it was something what I purchased and never looked back.
Hope this helps at least a bit.
Anatoliy

Hello,
I'm looking for practical, cost and accessibility comparasons of Dropbox and One drive.
Have any of you used boht services? What one is better do you think?
I only need about 10GB.
By the way, I would sell my right arm for a decent cloud based note taker as well.
