It's easy to create folders and sort things by sliding them in and out
Pros and Cons
  • "I like that you can easily create folders and sort things by sliding them in and out. I like the sliding option. It's quite nice."
  • "It's easy to start creating something in the Drive and share it with multiple people."
  • "I would like better security because I use Google Drive to store some personal documents, It would be nice if I could password protect some files."

What is our primary use case?

I use Google Drive to create and store documents, like tables, docs, CVs, etc. I also store important documents that I've scanned like my ID, some family papers, and stuff like this. 

What is most valuable?

I like that you can easily create folders and sort things by sliding them in and out. I like the sliding option. It's quite nice.

What needs improvement?

I would like better security because I use Google Drive to store some personal documents, It would be nice if I could password protect some files. 

For how long have I used the solution?

I've been using Google Drive for more than 10 years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Google Drive is highly stable. I think Google knows what they're doing with how many users they have.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

I've had some documents that we've edited simultaneously, and it never lags. I have some collaborative documents. We have one project with three people working on it.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

If I didn't have Google Drive, I would need to carry all my papers physically and I could lose them. 

How was the initial setup?

If you have a Google account, you have automatically a Drive. It's almost instant use. It's already pre-installed by Google, so you don't need to do anything.

What other advice do I have?

I rate Google Drive nine out of 10. It's easy to start creating something in the Drive and share it with multiple people. All you need is an email account. It's a great service.

I would recommend Google Drive, depending on what purpose you want to use it for. It's great to have your files on you everywhere, but Google Drive may not be the best solution for every purpose. It's an all-around solution, not specialized.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Public Cloud

If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?

User-friendly, with great photo backup feature
Pros and Cons
  • "I also use OneDrive, but I prefer Google Drive because it's available on many platforms and devices, so it gives a wide variety for backups, especially on Android systems."
  • "The desktop app could be improved, especially how it functions in the Windows environment."

What is our primary use case?

I use Google Drive on my phone for backups.

What is most valuable?

The most valuable features are the backup of photos and the user-friendliness. It's also useful to have Google's version of Office embedded in the app, as it allows you to view your files directly from your Google Drive online.

What needs improvement?

The limit on the storage size could be expanded, and the desktop app could be improved, especially how it functions in the Windows environment.

For how long have I used the solution?

I've been using this solution for five to six years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Google Drive is stable.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

I also use OneDrive, but I prefer Google Drive because it's available on many platforms and devices, so it gives a wide variety for backups, especially on Android systems. However, OneDrive's desktop app is better because it's embedded in Windows, and you directly back up your PC to OneDrive while working in your Microsoft account.

How was the initial setup?

Google Drive is easy to install, especially on Android phones where Google's services are linked in.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

Google Drive is free.

What other advice do I have?

I would give Google Drive a score of eight out of ten.

Makes file and information sharing easy, secure, and fast
Pros and Cons
  • "I like the ease with which you can share files securely with the team. It makes file and information sharing much easier than sending attachments."
  • "The storage limits could be higher."

What is most valuable?

I like the ease with which you can share files securely with the team. It makes file and information sharing much easier than sending attachments.

We have to do a lot of presentations. We keep the presentation in a specific secure folder. Then, we give access to those that need it. Whenever they go to a client to do a presentation, they can access the folder, bring up the presentation, and go through it. It's fast.

What needs improvement?

The storage limits could be higher.

I would like to see more cloud services being bundled into Google, such as mobile security.

Google should definitely build some modules into it so that when we add organizational data onto Google Cloud, we won't need to build separate proxies for security.

For how long have I used the solution?

We have been using this solution for the last three to four years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

It's quite stable; we have not had any issues.

How are customer service and support?

In Sri Lanka, technical support was initially an issue, but now, it's okay.

How was the initial setup?

If you're an experienced user, the initial setup is quite easy.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

Google is much cheaper than Microsoft.

What other advice do I have?

Google is much cheaper and much more flexible than Microsoft. On a scale from one to ten, I would give Google Drive Enterprise an eight.

Good for sharing, searching and storage share
Pros and Cons
  • "Low maintenance solution."
  • "Record your meeting and simply share with anyone without thinking where to store the file."
  • "The ease of user sharing information among people in the organization is the most valuable feature of this solution."
  • "Google meets use of whiteboard is primitive making it difficult to demonstrate while talking."

What is our primary use case?

We utilize the Drive Enterprise for sharing, the search drive and the storage share.

What is most valuable?

The ease of user sharing information among people in the organization is the most valuable feature of this solution.

For example, when you have a meeting, you can record it and then simply share with anyone you would like. You don't have to think about where to put the file, everything is semi-automatic, everything is functional.

What needs improvement?

Microsoft Teams has a lot more features than Google. Google Meet allows you to collaborate by drawing on a whiteboard while talking in the meeting, however it is primitive and not user friendly as it is a bit challenging to try to demonstrate using the whiteboard.

For how long have I used the solution?

We have been using Google Drive since day one of our organization.

How are customer service and support?

Google Drive Enterprise is a low maintenance solution.

What other advice do I have?

If you don't need the added features of Microsoft Teams, Google Meet will satisfy the needs of collaboration and discussion. It is a good integration of Google. There has been no problems or issues. I would give it a 9 out of 10.
