Reliable and enhances research efficiency but needs more detailed search filters
We use Google Chrome primarily for research purposes. In our enterprise environment, we research articles, find competitors, and conduct normal industry research Our use of Google Chrome allows us to conduct secondary research efficiently and aids in finding competitor information. Google…
Darko Borovic - PeerSpot reviewer
Easy to use and has good features like control panel, system settings, and backup
Windows 10 is mostly used in our production system. We are a TV station with some software depending on an operating system. This software won't be able to start or manage in other operating systems. We were forced to use Windows 10. Since we updated that software, we switched to Windows 11…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Bookmarking is very good because they are synchronized across all devices."
"We use the product to run applications and devices."
"This solution is user-friendly with security features detecting if there is suspicious activity on the browser. There is a lot of extensions we can use to provide us with good coverage."
"Google Chrome's reliability is a valuable feature, providing consistent and comprehensive search results."
"Google Sheets and Google Docs are the most valuable features of the solution."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its browser, which offers good performance."
"Chrome functions as a comprehensive solution due to its continuous self-evaluation and improvement. The evolution process has been significant, with a notable distance covered from its inception to the present. Notably, features like VPN support have been incorporated over time, enhancing the platform's capabilities. A distinctive feature is that users don't even need to know the Wi-Fi password; upon signing into the machine, internet connectivity is established immediately. Furthermore, the cloud storage system ensures data isn't stored locally, making it seamless for users to switch between machines. In summary, Google Chrome Enterprise is an excellent solution, particularly when there's a shortage of available manpower."
"Google Chrome Enterprise is a stable solution with good performance."
"All the features the solution has are enough for us and we are satisfied."
"Windows 10 is a user-friendly operating system."
"The solution is versatile and allows for easy installation."
"The solution's price is affordable."
"I like the basic features of the product, overall."
"The two main features that I have found valuable are its ease of use and that we are used to using Windows."
"It's stable for the most part. It's working fine."
"I have found all the features to be valuable. I like the compatibility of Windows with other products, I can add applications. The general compatibility of Microsoft is good, I know that I can use all the Microsoft products."
 

Cons

"The tool is not very user-friendly."
"You still need to have a pretty good understanding of GCP to deploy it properly."
"Google Chrome Enterprise doesn't use AI in its solution."
"Setting up anything resembling a shared inbox is still kind of a giant pain in the solution."
"Chromebooks are hard to find in the Indonesian market."
"I wish there was a way that they could update things a little less often if anything. I think a lot of enterprise customers are frustrated... Certain plug-ins like ad blockers will lose some functionality in the next quarter to half a year."
"They need to deal with their memory management."
"There is a need for improved features to refine search results and narrow them down efficiently."
"It should be more secure and should have an antivirus."
"There is room for improvement when it comes to the licensing."
"It would be valuable for Windows to have an MDM feature to deploy applications remotely to it natively, such as the Jamf solution for Apple."
"The solution's pricing could be a little cheaper."
"The pricing could be more competitive compared to other products of the same nature."
"I think there are too many unnecessary questions when installing the solution. I try to do it as quickly as possible, answering "no" or "I don't want" to most questions. I don't remember the questions because I just try to skip them all. I don't pay attention to particular questions as I don't need them. I know I'll get Windows at the end, which I need. Compared to years ago, the installation process now has many more non-technical questions about usage and family members, which I don't like."
"I want a more stable version of the Linux interface that you can use within Windows 10."
"Windows 10 could improve its security and they have not added anything extra to the solution from the previous versions."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Google Chrome Enterprise is a medium-priced solution."
"Pricing varies significantly based on different regions and specific requirements. The cost can differ for the Euro price as opposed to the Asia-specific price. Generally, the standard pricing falls within the range of twenty-five to thirty dollars per license. This payment can be structured on a monthly or yearly basis. Opting for the yearly payment plan often comes with an added discount, either directly from Google or through negotiations with your vendor."
"So all I can say is just for us since we just recently re-upped our three-year contract for Google Education Enterprise, whatever the name is for their highest level enterprise...I found the pricing to be pretty reasonable overall."
"We are on a monthly subscription for this solution."
"Yearly payments are to be made towards the licensing costs of Google Chrome Enterprise. It is not an expensive solution. I rate the solution's pricing model a six out of ten. There is a need to pay an extra cost in addition to the solution's standard licensing fees."
"The product price is very good in my opinion."
"The pricing scheme could improve for Windows 10. There is an annual license required for the use of this solution."
"The license came with the computer when I purchased it."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is the lowest price possible and ten is the highest, I rate its pricing five since it's quite overpriced."
"The licensing is yearly. It would be nice if they offered some one-time license options where you could procure it for a lifetime."
"There is a license required for this solution."
"The solution came pre-installed on my computer, so I did not incur a licensing fee."
"There is a licensing for the solution and they could improve on it."
"There is a license required for this solution and it could be less expensive."
