SharePoint and Google Drive offer similar capabilities, although SharePoint is structured better for accommodating organizational structures by separating out navigable document libraries and creating "Sites" for individuals teams/groups.  Google Drive is easy to use and intuitive, and the UI is more responsive.  For personal use I would recommend Google Drive, since the overhead for administration is much lower.  SharePoint administration requires a certain amount of software knowledge and configuration.
