 Google Drive is my main Drive at the moment when it comes to Personal Free Cloud Storage.  Unlike other services, Google does not have any referral system to Gain Free Storage.  As soon as you create Gmail The account you are eligible for the 15GB Free Cloud Storage of Google.
Even Though Google Drive did not provide referral earning free space for the Drive but google time to time offer some free space when you do certain Task.  as an example one time they provided me Additional 2GB of Free Space for Reviewing the google Security Verification,  Likewise they have the  Different mechanism of offering additional free space to the users.

As you can see in  the above list Google is providing tonnes of apps & Feature for Free with their cloud storage solution.  My Most Favorite feature they given is the Unlimited Storage for Photos & Videos for you if you set your back option on the Drive to High Quality(Visually Google Reduce the Quality of Image & Videos from the Original Size) High-Quality Photos Up to 16MP & High-Quality Video up to 1080P is is the limit beyond that size they will compress you photos and videos to maximum size and store.  if you need the original size then those will consume you Drive Space.
My Second Favorite is the Google Docs I'm Heavily depending on the Spread Sheet Which Compared to Microsoft free Online office Much Better Because it has More Features than What Microsoft is Providing.

Platform Support for App.

Google Drive App is Currently Support Windows Pc, Mac, iOS & Android and It doesn't Support Any Client for Linux & Windows Mobile but You can Always Access the Online Web Version from any of the Operating System Platform.  we talked most of the features and benefits about google drive lets moving to the next service.

Microsoft OneDrive

If you take Microsoft OneDirve Google Drive has Almost Similar features other than the storage service they have lots of online services like Online office and other Microsoft Related App linked into Single Authentication with Microsoft Account.

Microsoft One Drive intrinsically linked with Windows Phone, PC and online office. if you have Hotmail or Outlook Account you already have Microsoft OneDrive Space with you. before Microsoft Provided 15GB free storage & Another Additional 10GB for but after 11/08/2016 they have removed bonus Space, any new user will now get 5GB of Free Storage.
Though they give you only 5GB Free Storage you can always earn extra 10GB as referral Bonus that means effectively you can Get Maximum 15GB OneDrive Storage Free.  Best Part of the referral Bonus is the person who is inviting and the one who is accepting and Signing in to OneDrive Both will be able to Earn 500MB Bonus Space.

 as you can see in the above they have integrated with social media and like sharing options so that you can publish the link and invite people to OneDrive both Can Enjoy the 500MB Bonus Space on it.  you can Signup OneDrive Here.

Platform Support

OneDrive has the native client for Windows & Mac operating system and Native App for the Windows Mobile, Android & iOS Devices. the benefit of the native client or the native app it will give your file access even if you are in offline mode and once you are online files will automatically sync across all the devices.  all the other platforms you can have online web access to OneDrive as well as free apps like word, excel, power point etc, with limited features.

Summary

as to summaries the free cloud storage if you do the small comparison of above three services ultimately the free space given my all the three Comparison are almost same. lets put them into a table.

DropBox                                       GoogleDrive                         OneDrive

2GB Free R.B*(14GB Max)                  15GB Fee upon Signup                 5GB Fee R.B*(10GB Max)
                                                                High-Quality Photos &
                                                                Videos Unlimited Free
                                                                16MP & 1080P Quality
R.B* = Referral Bonus
as you can see above the Best Storage is GoogleDrive without the hassle you have 15GB Free Storage as well as Unlimited Storage for you Photos & Videos if you set with the HighQualtiy options that will not consume Drive Space Which is Great.
Native Client Support vote is Going to Dropbox which cover almost all the platform.
When It comes to Features & Storage No Doubts it is Google Drive.  so I hope my article may help some of you to just compare & select What Free Cloud Storage is best for you. Since there are no restrictions to stick into one service i'm enjoying all the 3 services i have mention above.

Main Benefit is No worry about formatting PC or Resetting your phone, with google all my contact, pictures, Documents & Videos are backed up.  so never lose any important file again use the cloud service and it will be available at your  fingertips when every you need it.
