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

"For content sharing, it provides automation features that can be customized according to needs, which are some of the best features that I appreciate."
"This solution is great for inviting and sharing documents with other users."
"It is very convenient and easy to access."
"The stability of Google Drive Enterprise is good."
"The performance of this solution is fast because it is hosted by Google."
"The solution is very easy to scale."
"It's easy to access from an Android device and can access things like cyber security restrictions on USB drives, file size, and so on. Google Drive will be an option."
"Google Drive Enterprise has helped compile data in one spot."
"The tool is intuitive and easy to use."
"When we collaborate on a team project, everyone has the opportunity to contribute to the project."
 

Cons

"The auditing features of Amazon WorkDocs have not helped meet compliance needs."
"I had a very bitter experience with their mobile app."
"It might be ideal if we could increase storage more easily, however, I don't have much visibility on that and have never had any issues."
"Lacks scalability and security."
"It would be ideal if they could offer more GBs for free. Offering 15GBs is too small."
"Google meets use of whiteboard is primitive making it difficult to demonstrate while talking."
"I would like to see the price reduced in the next release."
"The solution should be more user-friendly so that people get used to it."
"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 would like to see better integration with Google Docs, the Google landscape in general, and other environments."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's cheaper compared to similar products available"
"The program is very affordable."
"I use the free version."
"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."
"Storage is the only product offered and that makes it expensive to use."
"I have evaluated Amazon AWS and IBM solutions. Amazon AWS has competitive prices for cloud storage and backups."
"The product is available for free, so I don't need to pay for it."
"It has a yearly license."
"Google is much cheaper than Microsoft."
