Senior Software Engineer at a tech vendor with 501-1,000 employees
Collaboration works seamlessly and automation supports efficient file sharing
I work as a software engineer in fraud prevention projects where I function primarily as a data engineer. I work with data warehouses, which are centralized storage systems where transactions through databases occur and data from various client sources is consolidated. Amazon WorkDocs can be integrated with AWS Lambda and used with step functions. If publishing with SNS, WorkDocs can subscribe to SNS as well. The integration capabilities of WorkDocs with other AWS services are strong. For access, we use Okta with our AWS account, and we can only log in through our laptops. We authenticate and access whatever services we are authorized to use from the company. Mobile access is not allowed. On a scale of 1-10, I rate Amazon WorkDocs an 8.

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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This solution is great for inviting and sharing documents with other users."
"For content sharing, it provides automation features that can be customized according to needs, which are some of the best features that I appreciate."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to share files."
"I like that I can access files from anywhere."
"Accessing their services is simple, user-friendly, and does not require a lot of technology."
"The solution is absolutely stable."
"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."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is file sharing with partners."
"The stability of Google Drive Enterprise is good."
 

Cons

"The auditing features of Amazon WorkDocs have not helped meet compliance needs."
"I had a very bitter experience with their mobile app."
"Some features like transpose are still lacking in the solution for power users."
"The product does not support certain formats."
"It would be helpful if there was a synchronization option that would allow me to synchronize folders or emails with my online repository. That way, any new items added to the folder would automatically be uploaded to the solution, without me having to manually upload them."
"I'm never sure if the problem is with Google Drive or my browser. Sometimes, it takes a long time loading, but I'm not sure we should blame Google Drive."
"I'd like some UI enhancements for an even better user experience."
"I think that Google Drive Enterprise works for a lot of people but it didn't work for me."
"If somebody has made changes, for example, there should be a timestamp. Also, if two or three people are working and someone deletes something, a mechanism to retrieve the previous version should be available."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's cheaper compared to similar products available"
"I use the free version of the product."
"The tool is a bit expensive."
"In the free subscription, Google Drive Enterprise provides limited integrations. You get basic integration features, but for more extensive API usage, a paid subscription is required. Even with the paid subscription, there are limits on free API usage, such as a certain number of calls per day or month."
"The product is free."
"I rate the price of Google Drive Enterprise a four out of five compared to other competitors."
"The licensing is yearly. We pay for the high-tier subscription."
"There is a monthly fee that we pay for the use of this solution and the price is fair."
"Google Drive is free."
