Joining the ranks is Google One. This is the company’s cloud storage platform. It should come as no surprise that Google One surpassed a billion downloads. It’s a staple for every Google account owner, as every account gets automatic storage. When you make a Google account, you start off with 15GB of cloud storage for free. That’s enough to get most people started off on the right foot. This also applies to Google Photos storage.
If you want to access more storage, you can pay a monthly or yearly subscription fee for it. Google One encompasses all of Google’s services including Google Drive, Gmail, Google Photos, Google Photos, and Google Docs/Sheets/Slides. Getting a subscription will give you more storage for all of those products.
The cheapest plan will cost you $1.99/month ($19.99/year). With that one, you’ll get 100GB of storage to share with up to five people. You’ll also have access to Google experts for help.
The next up will cost you $2.99/month ($29.99/year). This plan gets you the same perks as the first plan with 200GB of storage. Also, you’ll get 3% back when you shop at the Google Store.
Next up, there’s the $9.99/month plan ($99.99/year). You’ll have a full 2TB of storage along with 10% back when shopping at the Google Store, a Workspace premium account, and the Google VPN added to your plan.
The last four plans have the same perks. The only difference is the amount of storage you get. There’s the 5TB ($24.99/month, $249.99/year), 10TB ($49.99/month), 20TB ($99.99/month), and 30TB ($149.99/month) plan.
