Adapting to changes is smooth with flexible storage options and responsive support
I can't use Google Chrome Enterprise for my bank site because it could be the bank site issue. Something is breaking on the logging page itself, so it could be a cookies issue. As long as it is working in Edge, I am content with that. Google account storage could use some improvements. They should have a better compression mechanism or increase the free data space to the next level; at least make it 30 or 40 GB. According to the current trend, increasing the free version is better so that people can sustain for some time before making a purchase. There could be more flexible options for pricing and license for Google Chrome Enterprise. Currently, there are maybe two, three, or four options, but there should be something lesser than one TB. Customers should be able to choose extra storage according to their needs, such as 50 GB on demand, rather than predefined sizes. There aren't many complaints about the Google Admin console; maybe some improvements, especially with the parent control part. Perhaps I didn't explore that much; that could be a reason.
