Offers accessibility from various devices and easy to setup
I never intended to use Google Storage. It was just a backup or auxiliary service to my Gmail account. If someone wants to use it, they probably can use it. I am not sure about the corporate environment. But at a personal level, Google Storage supports a lot of functions of the whole Google package, from the calendar, mail, photos, news, and so on. So, anyone who is using this software is definitely using Google Storage in some way. It is about the core usage. So, if someone is looking for a cloud storage solution, I would suggest using it. Overall, I would rate the solution a nine out of ten.
