Google Drive Enterprise Reviews

We primarily use the solution for internal file management and also for creating rooms or drives for clients.

The streamlining that an organization gets when using the solution is great. It saves a lot of space on the desktop because all of the files are in the cloud and don't need to be downloaded.

I don't know if it's already available, however, being able to set a period for which files can be available to people you share them with before the permissions disappear would be quite helpful.

A separate interface to give users a summary of how they've shared items on the drive would be useful. You can end up having a lot of stuff and the sheer amount can end up making users feel a little bit lost in terms of knowing who they've actually shared items with. 

I haven't been using the solution for too long in this current organization, however, I have worked with it extensively in the past.

The solution is quite stable.

The solution is very easy to scale.

We currently have about 300 people in our organization using it regularly. Virtually everyone uses it, including executive management. Analysts, sales, developers and finance teams are all on it.

We've never contacted technical support. I don't think we have any issues.

We have previously used Dropbox. However, it wasn't great for streamlining services.

The initial setup is quite simple. Users will find it very straightforward. There isn't even really any setup required. As soon as the domain was set up, it was ready to go.

We didn't evaluate another solution. I had already used Google privately and decided it was a good one to use to streamline and switch over to.

We're using the latest version of the solution. It's constantly updating itself. A user doesn't have to go and manually update the solution.

We use this solution on a daily basis and quite extensively.

Most organizations need to try it out. It's very straightforward. I'd suggest users go to Wix to get their domains, however, instead of Google, as Google can be quite expensive for that.

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten.

Our primary use case of this solution is for personal files and file storage. So basically I use the solution as long-term storage for photos, documents, or media files that we used over the years. 

What I like most about this solution, is the space feature that is used to store documents. I like it that I can store files to access whenever and wherever I want. I can access files on my laptop from anywhere. The other valuable feature is that the solution is fast and secure. The program runs seamlessly. I simply send my files to the cloud where they are stored, and I don't have to worry about losing my phone or laptop, I know exactly where they are. I don't have to use any other features in terms of sharing it, for instance.

I don't really see anything that needs to improve. I am not a very heavy user so I haven't had any issues with it. I think it does okay for the basics, for storing and saving files. Perhaps the security of files can be better.

The program is very stable. I've never seen it crash. 

I think Google is scalable by default. I know that from personal experience. I'm not a heavy user, so I think it's scalable.

There has never been need to contact their support team.

Yes, we did use a different solution, Google Cloud, so it was very similar software. I used Microsoft Drive as an alternative too. Google Drive is a great solution if you are on Gmail, so it's worth sticking with Gmail. Also, if you use an Android device that works with integration, the system runs seamlessly. Google Drive gives you a better storage amount in terms of it being your own storage unit and not others.

It is really easy to set it up on your personal laptop. But I am in government now, so we're not allowed to set up Google Drive. We're restricted and due to security measures Google Drive is not accessible in all areas. 

I'm an IT technician so I was responsible for the installation and deployment, which took me only about two minutes. 

The program is very affordable. I am just not sure what will happen if you forget to renew your license. Will you lose all your data? That is still unclear to me.

I will rate this solution an eight out of ten. I think there is a lot of distrust when it comes to giving your data to Google. They're a commercially based company, so putting anything on Google Drive might not be hundred percent secure and how will I know for sure that nothing's going to happen to my file? You don't have the assurance, so it's always a security issue when giving your files to Google Drive to store. I don't think security is Google's first priority, although it is a flexible, good software. That's why I give it eight.

Google Drive Enterprise is designed for different use cases. It is used for sharing with colleagues or teams. It is naturally easy to use and perfect for basic usability.

The solution provides access and manageability of storage.

Collaboration might be improved. In SharePoint, you have a structured directory, which makes it better for managing, organizing, and versioning documents. On the other hand, Jira is a bit more complicated and is more suitable for small companies. For large companies, SharePoint is better for collaboration.  

The biggest weakness is its connectivity and integration issues with Microsoft products. Many companies rely heavily on Microsoft Office, especially for Excel, and if a customer uses Google Drive, they need easy access to all these resources. For example, using Excel in Google Suite is not seamless; it can be difficult to edit and use, making the experience frustrating and unattractive.

I have been using Google Drive Enterprise for five years.

I rate the solution’s stability an eight or nine out of ten.

The solution is scalable. 50,000 users are using this solution.

Support is responsible for supporting every question, ticket, and incident related to Azure, Google Drive, and other associated services.

Overall, I rate the solution a seven out of ten.

This solution is for my personal use and for Facebook. I'm a customer of Google Drive. 

The solution is good for sharing and I like the storage aspect, it's very helpful. 

The product lacks scalability and I feel it could be more secure.

I've been using this solution for a few years. 

I recommend this solution and rate it eight out of 10. 

I use Google Drive for personal storage and organization of my documents, files, and other personal data.

The most valuable feature of Google Drive is its seamless integration across mobile devices and computers. Accessing and editing files from different platforms makes it incredibly convenient.

There could be some improvements in Google Drive, maybe in terms of user interface or additional features. Considering things like speech recognition or enhanced benefits in Google Cloud could be worth exploring for a better experience.

I have been using Google Drive Enterprise for a few months.

I would rate the stability as an eight out of ten. It could be a little faster.

I would rate the scalability as a ten out of ten.

The initial setup was very easy and I deployed the solution myself.

It is on the expensive side.

Overall, I would rate Google Drive Enterprise as an eight out of ten.
