1. Dropbox
Dropbox has been around for a long time, and is considered a useful add-in for your Office package.
You can import Dropbox as a place in Microsoft Office, which means that you will open Dropbox directly from your Office apps, instead of using windows explorer to open it.
To use Dropbox on your computer, you must have Windows 7 to 10 installed as operating system, and Microsoft Office installed and running on your computer.
Once installed on your PC, it allows you to save directly to Dropbox from the menu options of your Office app.
To share using Dropbox, click Share in your Office application.

SOS Click stands for Save On Steroids and is an add-in created for users that want to save their work created in Microsoft Office on up to eight different locations using only one click.
This saves a lot of time and makes you more productive and more efficient in your daily activity.
The add-in costs $5 for one app and $10 for all three apps (Excel , Word, PowerPoint).
More than that, using SOS Click with your Office package, you get protected from hardware failure, ransomware attacks,etc.
SOS Click works on any Windows computer (from Windows 7 to 10), both 32 and 64bit versions that run Microsoft Office (Word, Excel and PowerPoint) with older versions such as 2007 and 2010, or newer ones like 2013, 2016 and 2019.
3. Google Drive
Google Drive is another free add-in that you can use along with SOS Click.
This add-in from Google is mainly used to open, edit, and save your work in Microsoft Office using Google Drive.
Being almost similar to Dropbox, you will use only one of them, Google Drive or Dropbox, but not both.
If you choose Google Drive, you need to have a computer with Windows 7 to 10,and 32 or 64 bit version installed, and Microsoft Office running on your PC.
