Feature Comparison
Every feature, every tier, every purchase option — at a glance.
Your plan applies to every cloud you connect — Google Drive and OneDrive alike. Every scan is complete on every tier — there is no file or size cap. The free-tier scan cooldown is counted per cloud, not shared between them.

Cloud coverage
Nearly everything works identically on both clouds. These are the differences, and why they exist.
| Capability | Google Drive | OneDrive | Why |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dashboard, sunburst, duplicates, folder tree, cleanup, security audit, trends | ✓ | ✓ | The analysis engine is provider-independent |
| Scheduled background scans | ✓ | ✓ | Each cloud keeps its own schedule |
| PDF reports, CSV export, saved scans, storage budget | ✓ | ✓ | Shared across providers |
| Cleanup / unshare via generated script | ✓ | — | Uses Google Apps Script, which you run yourself |
| In-app execution of cleanup / unshare / version actions | — | ✓ | OneDrive has no Apps Script equivalent, so DriveNest carries the action out itself on your confirmation |
| Automatic cleanup after a scheduled scan | ✓ | — | Built on the Apps Script deployment pipeline |
| “Shared with Me” partition scan | ✓ | ✓ | Both clouds separate owned files from files shared with you |
2 On the Free tier everything is found and scored; only the list is truncated to the first entries per section.
3 Free keeps only your latest scan, so there is no second snapshot to compare against. Premium keeps up to 20, Ultimate unlimited; scan history and the “changes since previous scan” dashboard panel come with them.
Premium OT = one-time perpetual purchase. Premium Sub = monthly subscription.
Ultimate OT = one-time perpetual purchase. Ultimate Sub = monthly subscription.
All subscription tiers include every feature from their one-time tier plus subscription-exclusive automation features.
Perpetual purchases cannot be upgraded between tiers (Google Play limitation). Choose carefully, or start with a subscription.
Subscriptions include major version updates. Perpetual licenses receive minor and bugfix updates only.
See it on your own cloud. DriveNest is free to try on Android, for Google Drive and OneDrive — no ads, no DriveNest server.
