Problem You May Encounter with Multiple Google Drive Accounts
It is trendy to use clouds to store data nowadays. Google Drive is a popular cloud service that not only provides users with 15 GB of free space but also has wonderful features like sharing, file viewing, encryption, etc.
However, Google Drive just allows one account to be connected to a single desktop device at a time. So, you may encounter such a problem if you have several Google Drive accounts on same computer---you may find it is annoying to manage them. On one hand, you have to repeatedly switch your accounts if you need to operate with different Google Drive accounts. On the other hand, you may find it is more troublesome when synchronizing or transferring Google Drive storage to another account because you need to download files from one account and upload them to another cloud.
As mentioned, Google Drive offers only 15 GB of free storage. To have more free cloud space to store work and personal files in different accounts or to backup files, people usually choose to register another Google Drive account. We can also notice a customer demand through the above cases that sometimes people need to transfer Google Drive storage to another account when they posses multiple Google Drive accounts and many users are trying to do it without efforts.
So, is there any simple way to use multiple Google Drive accounts at the same time without switching accounts? Fortunately, MultCloud can help you.
