Naresh Kumar - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers great reliability to users
Protection is an area in the product where improvements are required. If big companies want to use the tool for protection purposes, like security, which is a big thing people are looking for nowadays. Sometimes, the tool's user interface automatically puts all the files in a different place, making it a bit difficult to go deep and figure out in which folder a file is present. I need to search for a file and drill down to be able to find it. There are a few bugs in the tool, as with all content management tools, since the solution is usually used to deal with huge amounts of content. If the flow of the documents is huge, the tool might get slow for the end users, or when the data is being migrated or imported into the tools.

Useful for businesses to archive their information
I don't use the tool directly. Based on what my team says, from one to ten, if one is difficult and ten is easy, I rate the product's initial setup phase as a nine. A technical person took care of the product's installation phase. The solution is deployed on the private and public clouds. The tool is majorly deployed on a private cloud. I use the cloud services from Microsoft Azure. The solution can be deployed in a period of two years. For deployment in the infrastructure, we had five people who are infrastructure specialists. About twenty people needed development, and the team consisted of analysts and specialists. For infrastructure, there were five people as specialists for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). Though we use too much of Azure, OCI is the biggest product for our company. Azure is managed by a medium number of people. There are five people to take care of the clouds.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The feature we've found most valuable is the ability to access our data anywhere, anytime."
"The most valuable feature of Google Cloud Storage is the shared folder."
"The solution is stable and has good performance."
"The solution's most valuable features are availability, feasibility, and reachability."
"It is seamlessly integrated with your Android. There’s no fuss, no hassle."
"The most valuable features of Google Cloud Storage are the ease of use and I can share files with my colleagues."
"The most valuable features of Google Cloud Storage are flexibility and sustainability."
"The responses from the technical team are fast...It is a stable product...We do have plans to increase the number of users since it is a scalable product."
"The technical support for the solution was very nice."
"The most valuable features of the tool are scalability and security."
"The solution's most valuable features are its speed, unlimited space, and simplicity of use."
"One key feature is that you can make buckets private, requiring pre-authentication and using a specific URL for access. Additionally, the buckets are encrypted by default. The flexibility of public or private buckets and how you grant access are vital security features."
 

Cons

"Pricing remains challenging, especially for SMEs, making cloud services costlier than on-premises solutions."
"The solution should offer more free storage."
"The main area for improvement would be providing a local setup or working area. Currently, developers need to commit code to test changes. A lower-cost option for this would be beneficial."
"I would prefer more support for alternative operating systems like DSD. The performance could be better because sometimes there are glitches. The price could be better."
"It is hard to migrate to another product if we want to."
"Google Cloud Storage could improve by having better integration with Microsoft Office files. When I open a Google document I would like it to be able to be opened with Microsoft. You can already open Google documents in Microsoft Office."
"Google Cloud Storage could be improved by increasing the drive capacity."
"There are inefficiencies with cache when the names are sequencing."
"Cost-wise, it is not an affordable tool if you allocate space, and try to use it some other day."
"Sometimes, there are glitches with applying policies. Even when the policy is correct, it might not work consistently. We need to troubleshoot to see if it's a user error or if the policy itself needs adjustment. It usually works after refreshing, but that inconsistency is a minor complexity."
"Oracle Cloud Object Storage needs to have an additional bucket for security."
"The solution should provide more customization and the possibility of doing more manual tasks."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Its price is fine."
"I pay for a monthly subscription."
"We pay a monthly subscription."
"I pay a yearly subscription fee."
"The solution comes with a cost once a person has exceeded a certain limit."
"I just use the free storage that comes with Gmail. I have 15 gigabytes."
"The solution is very cheap."
"There are no licensing fees."
"Oracle Cloud Object Storage might not be that expensive compared to on-premises solutions."
"During the billing cycle, if I use the tool only for a day, I still need to pay you for a month."
"We have a yearly subscription for the product."
"Disaster recovery (DR) can be expensive."
