Looking for total cloud solution (like LiveDrive), but with separate accounts...

    Folks,
    I am looking for a total cloud solution, like LiveDrive, which I find excellent.

    I find it suits my needs because it appears just like an extra drive in Windows, so has an easy to use interface (for the less inclined).

    However, now i'm faced with a new challenge. There are going to be a few users on the cloud. What i'm looking for is, on the one cloud, for each user to have their own folder (which no one else can see, except admin), and then one shared folder, that all of them can see.

    Does anyone have experience of same, that can point me in the right direction?

    Dropbox, Google Drive, Microsoft SharePoint...lots of options really because your requirement is pretty much the point of cloud storage. I'd go with the big names though if this is for a business. Perhaps look into Google Apps and tie in email, docs, storage and uptime guarantee.

    Livedrive 'business' account allows separate users within one account so i'm going to go with that. I like the inferface of Livedrive in the sense that it just shows as a new virtual drive on 'My Computer' - very no-nonsense for not-so-literate users
