Best for end-to-end encrypted file sharing hosted in Germany
TeamDrive is encrypted storage and sharing hosted in Germany, with an audit trail and archiving for regulated work. Prices are in euros for business use, and after the 30-day trial the app drops to a reduced Private mode.
Who TeamDrive is for
- Fits if your data must be held in Germany under German rules
- Works for law, tax or healthcare teams who need retention periods and an audit trail
Who TeamDrive is not for
- Pricey if you are one person, as storage starts at 10 GB for €76 a year
- Not for you if you want a free plan, as the trial ends after 30 days
- Tight if you grow, because the shop lists three Starter packages and more needs added licenses or storage
- Watch out: prices exclude VAT and are shown for business use, and Outlook encryption is Windows with Classic only

Keep TeamDrive, or make your own?
Keep it
To replace TeamDrive you would be making files kept in step across devices without losing one. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
It costs $84.91 a year.
What you could not
- Files kept in step across devices without losing one.
- Storing and serving files for other people.
- Apps for macOS, Windows, Linux, iOS and Android that stay in step with each other.
- End-to-end encryption done properly.
- What a company asks for before it lets staff use something: roles and permissions.
- The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
What this rests on. TeamDrive’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
What is TeamDrive?
TeamDrive is a file sync and sharing service run from Germany for businesses and public bodies. Files live in shared Spaces that are encrypted end to end, and data is held in German data centers. It also covers large-file sending by link, an Outlook add-in and archiving with set retention periods.
Worth knowing
- Prices are shown for business use and exclude VAT, in euros.
- After the 30-day trial the app drops to a Private mode with reduced functionality.
- The shop lists three Starter packages by default; larger needs mean adding licenses or storage.
- The Outlook attachment encryption is for Windows with Outlook Classic.
Key features
- End-to-end encryption
- Encryption is applied automatically in every package, and the vendor describes the service as a zero-knowledge cloud.
- Spaces for projects
- Each package allows an unlimited number of Spaces, each with its own access permissions.
- Large files and guests
- Files can be sent through a Space or a download link. Guest licenses are unlimited and limited to one Space each.
- Archiving and audit trail
- Archives can enforce retention periods and the vendor describes them as GoBD-compliant; an audit trail records activity.
- Outlook add-in
- A plug-in for sending email attachments securely; attachment encryption works with Outlook Classic on Windows.
