If collaboration is critical, I don't think you can beat Google Drive for working with other people on the same document. Personally, I prefer to use Dropbox combined with MS Office for all my documents and Apple Notes for text-based notes that I'm not sharing with others. Dropbox works well for me because it appears just like a regular folder in my computer, sharing is straightforward, and it's way easier to manage PDFs than with Google Drive. I use Google Drive for my startup, but I almost never store PDFs on it.
If you're using a Chromebook, however, Google Drive might be a better option because it's supposedly well-integrated.
