# Cloud Storage

### Introduction

There are several university-approved cloud storage options:

- [Box.com](https://ucla.box.com/)
- [Google Drive (using g.ucla.edu)](https://drive.google.com/)

Both solutions provide unlimited storage space for UCLA accounts, but Box.com has a 25GB single file size limitation.

**NOTE:** Dropbox is **NOT** authorized as a cloud storage option at UCLA due to security concerns and non-compliance. Please do **NOT** use Dropbox for any official university documents, files or storage.

### UCLA Box Enterprise

Box is the official cloud storage solution of UCLA. To use UCLA Box Enterprise service go to <https://ucla.box.com/> and log in with your UCLA Login ID and password.

### Google Drive (via g.ucla.edu)

Google Drive is part of the Google Apps platform that UCLA implemented when ucla.edu email addresses were moved over to Google’s servers.

Setting up a Google Apps account is as simple as going to [https://g.ucla.edu](https://g.ucla.edu/) and logging in with your UCLA credentials.

More information on [Google Apps](https://www.it.ucla.edu/services/email-calendaring-collaboration/google-apps) can be found on the UCLA IT website.
