Dropbox is hosting service that allows users to create special folders on their computers, which are then synchronized, accessing the same folder, regardless of which computer is used to view it.
Anything users add to Dropbox will automatically show up on all their computers, phones and even the Dropbox website — so they can instantly access it from any location.
It also makes sharing and collaboration easier, by inviting other users to any folder in Dropbox.
About MEGA
MEGA - private, trusted and secure cloud storage and collaboration platform
Anyone could be forgiven for thinking that all cloud storage services are the same, and all that separates different cloud storage providers are simple features and price differences. But this is not the case. MEGA understands the importance of keeping data and conversations private while providing a fantastic user experience that does not impact a user’s right to privacy.
Launched in 2013, MEGA is the world’s first easily accessible zero-knowledge cloud storage provider to deliver user-controlled end-to-end encryption. Our product design is governed by the principle of not letting our no-compromise end-to-end encryption get in the way of usability.
Today, MEGA is the world’s largest privacy-focused cloud storage and chat provider with over 220 million registered users globally. Users upload over 65 million encrypted files a day. With MEGA, they are in control of who can see, access and share their data. MEGA can be used from all major devices and platforms from anywhere with the Internet.
Zero-Knowledge
Zero-knowledge means that not even MEGA can access your files, and only each user holds the key to unlock their content. We also offer the ability for users to verify the credentials of contacts when sharing files, using cryptographic fingerprint technology, ensuring they are authentic before gaining access to your content.
Generous and Easy to Use
People need to send and store a lot of files, and a cloud provider should accommodate this! Our generous 20 GB free offering will help users get started, and when you need more, our competitive paid plans will support you with up to 16 TB for individuals or unlimited for businesses. We’ve got you covered, without breaking the bank.
Using MEGA, your friends, colleagues and customers can download shared files without the need to sign up, and they’ll still benefit from our super-fast transfer speeds.
MEGAchat
Audio and video calling with messaging come with every MEGA cloud storage account. But unlike some other video calling providers, you can rest easy knowing your conversations are fully secure thanks to MEGA’s user-controlled end-to-end encryption. Available on desktop and mobile.
*“I’ve been using MEGA for years as a fast and reliable way to transfer large volumes of data in a private and secure fashion.” *

Does this service offer an API?
The MEGA SDK consists of code and documentation that enables you to make use of MEGA's API functionality at a comfortably high level of abstraction. Its core component — a code module called client access engine — maintains a current copy of the user's account in memory (which includes all relevant files, folders, contacts and shares), accepts commands from the application and notifies the application of command results and other updates through callbacks.
