## Keep it, or make your own?

- You could not: Storing and serving files for other people.
- You could not: Apps for macOS, Windows, Linux, iOS and Android that stay in step with each other.
- You could not: End-to-end encryption done properly.
- You could not: What a company asks for before it lets staff use something: roles and permissions.
- You could not: The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
