A great collaboration service for small organizations

The synchronization should be simplified. Other solutions like Dropbox and OneDrive have apps. I tried using the mobile version, but it didn't work properly, that needs to be improved. It was cumbersome. It's a good solution for a small organization like ours, but it really depends on your use-cases and the size of your organization. I had a very bitter experience with their mobile app. It was challenging to even download it and once I did, I wasn't even able to log into my system. The mobile app needs to improved for easy use.

Offers the most simplest and easiest UI to use

I would not like many changes in the tool, but I think the 15 GB space provided by Google Drive Enterprise needs to be increased to around 25 five GB, as it would be really helpful for users. These days, the resolution of pictures and everything else has been increased. If you take a picture from an iPhone, it could easily be of around seven to eight GB. Photos are memories that one would want to keep or store properly. I believe that it is not possible to save a lot of photos in Google Drive Enterprise since it only provides 15 GB to users. The product does not offer a bit more storage space for users, which makes it an area that needs to be considered for improvement.

It's very easy to manage files and share files on Google Drive Enterprise, and these are its most valuable features."

"We can use the product to store large documents we cannot always carry."

"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."

Cons

"I had a very bitter experience with their mobile app."

"Lacks scalability and security."

"If they would implement something for people who have been working on Google Drive for so many years, to have an upgraded version or to be upgraded to that capacity or storage, that would be fantastic."

"I would like to see larger storage capabilities."

"The only thing that's really been annoying is the single file size limit."

"The product must provide more storage space."

"Wasabi is better for scalability aspects because it is limitless."

"The Google Sheets should have more functionality."

"I am not sure what will happen if you forget to renew your license."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's cheaper compared to similar products available"

"Google is much cheaper than Microsoft."

"I use the free version."

"I have evaluated Amazon AWS and IBM solutions. Amazon AWS has competitive prices for cloud storage and backups."

"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."

"The costs could be lower, but they are reasonable for the value they provide."

"The price could be better."

"The solution has a subscription-based license."

"It is inexpensive and the cost is per user per month."
