#FAtech: Cloud Apps!

Last week, we conducted our first Twitter chat collaboration with folks from #SAchat using a new #FAtech hashtag.  During the conversation, a question was posed regarding technology tools.  We've done some informal surveys of mobile apps financial aid administrators use, so we thought we'd share.  Today's post is the mobile apps in what can be considered the "cloud" category.



1. Dropbox: Free


Bring all your photos, docs, and videos anywhere.  Any file you save to your Dropbox will automatically save to all your computers, your device, and even the Dropbox website! With the Dropbox app, you can take everything that matters to you on the go.


Download Dropbox on iTunes or Google Play for FREE




2. Google Drive: Free

Google Drive is one safe place for all your stuff. Upload photos, videos, documents, and other files that are important to you, then access what you need wherever you go, on any device. Get going with up to 15GB of storage.
