SWITCHdrive is an online storage space that allows you to store files individually or to synchronize entire folders. Files can be shared with others or protected with a password.

One unique feature is the option to grant others the right to upload files via the web browser to their own storage space. Moreover, texts, tables and presentations can be jointly edited.

Unlike commercial service providers such as Dropbox, the data on SWITCHdrive is stored in Switzerland.
