Google Drive to hit 1 billion users milestoneJuly 27 (AZINS) Cloud is the next big thing and Google Drive with its increasing number of users is the perfect example of that. Google Drive is reaching over 1 billion users this week, joining the league of other very popular Google services including Gmail, Chrome, YouTube, Maps, and Play Store, GSMArena reported. The cloud service recorded over 2 trillion file additions and over 800 million active users last year.

Recently, the company launched new set of plans nicknamed Google One which offer you more storage. Google One comes with a new family sharing option. Similar to iCloud, it allows you to share a plan with up to six family members, each having their own private storage areas, Engadget reported. There's also a one-tap access to experts feature for Google Drive and other services.

Importantly, Google Drive is now available in new storage plans and revised rates. A new 200GB plan is available at USD 3 per month. Cost of the 2TB plan is now reduced at USD 10 per month. Other plans remain the same, starting from 100GB for USD 2 per month and going all the way up to 30TB at USD 300 per month.
