Dropbox is one of the most popular cloud based platforms for hosting and sharing files. Like Google Drive, Dropbox offers a decent free storage space to start with and there is also the possibility to buy more storage capacity. Unless it is a Google doc or presentation, I always save my PDFs and other documents to Dropbox. What I like the most about this tool is its syncing capacities which are way faster than Google Drive. You can upload a PDF on your desktop and access it instantly on your Dropbox account in iPad.
