13. Reasons for my choice Part One I selected Ubuntu One because it offered Windows and Linux clients. Canonical, the parent company of Ubuntu, is well capitalized. I trusted Canonical to do the right thing. I am disappointed in Canonical, but not disgusted. I selected Box because it is well capitalized.

14. Reasons for my choice Part Two Box has had no security breaches as has Dropbox. Box has had fewer outages than Google Drive (99.99%). Box is free with a 10 GB storage space. Box has no Linux client but the web site makes up for it. 250 MB file size limit for free accounts. Box Notes text editor
