Afternoon. My wife and I both have seperate laptops and for our new business require to have access to the same files. I'm vaguely aware of what I believe is called Cloud Sharing but that's as far as my knowledge goes.
Could anyone tell me the best method of sharing files and what I have to do.
Thanks.

Google Drive or Dropbox is good for online sharing. Otherwise in the house get a Network Drive and store on that.

Dropbox. That is what me and my wife use. Every file in the dropbox folder gets copied onto the local drive of both computers and backed up to 'the cloud' when ever you connect to the network. It's all seamless and very easy to use. The only issue is if you try and work on the same file at once, then it makes two copies.

I think I've got one referral left. If you use this link then you and me will get some free space: http://db.tt/izJNqkM

Once you've signed up you can refer your wife and you will both get some more free space 🙂
