Have faced some confusion with the interface but have managed collaboration and document sharing efficiently
We currently use Notion for project management and CRM, which includes document capabilities and task management features. We have a self-hosted solution and utilize Google Drive Enterprise for everyday tasks. We are customers of Google and integrate Google Drive Enterprise with third-party applications. The compliance requirements are met through the platform's features. On a scale of 1-10, I rate Google Drive Enterprise an 8.

Great migrations, useful integrations, and offers good data replication
The local libraries from NetApp to NetApp are good. This way, we don't have to put the middleman in between to do the transition or conversion. The NetApp Cloud Volume Services for AWS has been helping migrate workloads onto the cloud. We did migrate a couple of native applications into AWS using this, and it was helpful. In terms of the integration with AWS native services, I did not configure it by myself. There was another team who did it. That said, I presume they didn't run into any issues, which is why we are using it. While the solution did not help us reduce the amount of storage, it allowed us to have data replicated across on-premises and in the cloud, so that we have a backup in DR. While it did not reduce the footprint, it helped DR expansion. It increased redundancy. Since deploying the product, we have not been affected by ransomware or other external threats.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The integration with Gmail, Calendar, and Google Meet is the most valuable."
"Google Drive Enterprise has helped compile data in one spot."
"The solution is very easy to scale."
"Google Drive is always up when I need it, so I don't have any complaints."
"Compared to other solutions such as Microsoft, this solution offers faster synchronization."
"It is very convenient and easy to access."
"It's a stable product."
"One of the reasons that I use Google Drive is that I used Gmail for more than 10 years, so when I had to choose a cloud storage solution, I selected Google Drive as I had experience with it and it was really easy to use and it was accessible all the time."
"The NetApp Cloud Volume Services for AWS has been helping migrate workloads onto the cloud. We did migrate a couple of native applications into AWS using this, and it was helpful."
 

Cons

"It would be ideal if they could offer more GBs for free. Offering 15GBs is too small."
"It is difficult to share documents with outside clients, and that's why I am looking at some other solution."
"You cannot upload multiple files with the same name to Google Drive. I'm not sure how relevant it is for other users, but I have multiple files with the same name that I'm unable to upload to a single folder."
"The solution is relatively new and takes some time to get used to."
"Improvements could include better editing features within a Word document, similar to the characteristics of on-premises versions, such as more formatting functions. Another improvement could be file transfer from the browser to the desktop, making it as simple as drag and drop."
"In the free version, managing the files and folders and data is a little difficult."
"The home page can be confusing at times. This is the main area that needs improvement in Google Drive Enterprise."
"The storage limits could be higher."
"We'd like the solution to be less expensive and offer lower latency."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The program is very affordable."
"Storage is the only product offered and that makes it expensive to use."
"You need to pay an extra cost to use more space."
"I use the free version of the product."
"There is a monthly fee that we pay for the use of this solution and the price is fair."
"Google Drive's price is lower than competitors. I have two accounts, including one with Apple that I use to manage some pictures and contact. I use Apple Cloud for only this purpose. I use Google Drive for everything else. Compared to Google, the price of Dropbox is high and the solution isn't good."
"I rate the price of Google Drive Enterprise a four out of five compared to other competitors."
"The costs could be lower, but they are reasonable for the value they provide."
