Simply put, the more Apple devices you use, the more useful iCloud will be to you. The native integration also means that there’s little in the way of setup-if you have an Apple device, you’ll already have an iCloud account, and all the software you need to start storing your files is built in. It’s easy, for example, to set up a folder structure on Finder, which will back up to iCloud, or to synchronize photos from your iPhone’s camera roll with the Photos app across your devices. It seamlessly integrates with the way Macs, iPhones, and iPads organize files. ICloud is a particularly well-designed service if you use Apple devices. iCloud has a maximum file size of 50GB, whereas, with Dropbox, you can upload files up to 50GB via the website or up to 2TB via the desktop or mobile apps. You can upload to either using the desktop app, mobile app, or web browser interface. With both iCloud and Dropbox, the process of uploading and syncing files is generally simple and easy.
