I’m a Google girl
I have these on my desktop, Chromebox, Chromebook, and android phone.
Keep - can share notes (perfect for grocery list), can “tack” notes to the top, choose reminder dates.
Backup and Sync - Can sync items you choose (Drive, Desktop, Photo’s, etc)
Contacts - Will stay synced between pc and phone
Drive - On my pc, this would be “My Documents” folder. Inside of that I have folders for each of my boys that I share with them. You have no idea how many times this has saved us over the years! Copies of their driver’s license, copies of our auto insurance, vaccination records, medical records.
Music Manager - uploads “My Music” folder so that I have access anytime to my music (I have around 20,000 songs!) need to set to wifi only on phones so data doesn’t get used.
Families - especially nice for sharing movies, books, and apps across family members.
Other ones:
TeamViewer - perfect for working on my 86-yr old mom computer from home so that I don’t have to drive to her house to get her “cc:” field back in her Outlook, lol. Or my lazy butt to go turn off DS’s pc he left on in another part of the house. I can also work on college son’s pc when he requests help (rare, but still nice to have). Our high school distributes MacBook’s to all the students… except I’m mean and force my DS to use his Chromebook from home. For one class that needed to use a program, he used TeamViewer on his pc at home to run the program via his Chromebook at school.
