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 stability of Google Drive Enterprise is good."
"The initial setup is easy."
"The solution is simple to use."
"Though I don't see a major difference between Google Drive Enterprise and other competitors, I find that the solution is easy to use. You just need to connect to it and upload files and give access to users who need access to the files. It's very easy to manage files and share files on Google Drive Enterprise, and these are its most valuable features."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to share files."
"Google Drive Enterprise provides convenience to its users. Also, it provides its users the option to easily share and collaborate."
"The solution is good, it does everything one needs, it is cloud-based, sufficiently secure, user-friendly, and I have not faced any problems in which I feel something to be missing."
"Google Drive provides a guarantee that I can retrieve my data anytime."
"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

"Google still has a learning curve you need to get over."
"It may not scale up to an enterprise level."
"The product lacks in the area of documentation."
"The solution should be more user-friendly so that people get used to it."
"I have sometimes observed that when the data is very huge or there are so many rules, Google Sheets documents get stuck while uploading. It keeps on loading the document and gives an error. There should be an improvement in this aspect. It should be quick. Currently, we have to wait for a long time."
"The desktop app could be improved, especially how it functions in the Windows environment."
"One problem I face is that online storage capacity is limited these days."
"The product does not offer a bit more storage space for users, which makes it an area that needs to be considered for improvement."
"We'd like the solution to be less expensive and offer lower latency."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I am using the free version."
"If you need extra storage for the product, then you need to make certain payments towards the product's licensing charges."
"The product is available for free."
"Google Drive Enterprise is free for everyone to use."
"We pay a monthly licensing fee for the solution."
"You don't need to pay if it is within your storage limits. If you need more, you can have a corporate license. I don't know the pricing, but there is a corporate license. The extra costs would only be if you exceed these free limits."
"I have evaluated Amazon AWS and IBM solutions. Amazon AWS has competitive prices for cloud storage and backups."
"Google is much cheaper than Microsoft."
