Huawei FusionStorage and Google Drive Enterprise are two prominent storage solutions vying for market dominance. Google Drive Enterprise appears to edge out as the superior product due to its robust features, which users feel justifies the cost.

Google Drive Enterprise offers seamless integration with other Google services, superior collaboration tools, and a comprehensive feature set compatible with existing workflows.

Offers valuable features like synchronization and backup

Some time ago, I faced issues with Google Drive Enterprise, but it is not related to the tool and was more of a problem associated with Android. At the end of the day, I had to contact Google's support team to deal with the issue associated with the capacity offered by the solution. Google's support team held me for free, and they helped me change the location from the US because the mobile app factory showed that the activation work was done in the US. Google's team helped me move the location to Spain. Google's support was fast, knowledgeable, and customer-friendly. I rate the technical support an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I like that you can easily create folders and sort things by sliding them in and out. I like the sliding option. It's quite nice."

"For me, the most important feature is the option to save the documents and then access it from anywhere from a mobile or a desktop, or any other device."

"The initial setup is easy."

"The most valuable feature of Google Drive Enterprise is storage and the mobile version. We can connect to Google Drive, on our Android phones and store all our documents, for later access at any time. It is a very flexible solution."

"The most valuable features of the solution are space and availability."

"The stability of Google Drive Enterprise is good."

"Google Drive provides a guarantee that I can retrieve my data anytime."

"The solution secures the data well."

More Google Drive Enterprise pros

"In cases where system interruptions occur, it enables rapid restoration, ensuring a prompt return to normal service levels."

"The solution’s most valuable feature is its performance."

"It is a stable solution."

"The product has a very simple GUI-based management platform and it is very simple to use. There is a very easy step-by-step configuration procedure that guides you through, and you can configure it very easily."

"Provides easy access to our data."

"Huawei FusionStorage does well in its basic functions and offers broad utility."

Cons

"The desktop app could be improved, especially how it functions in the Windows environment."

"Google Drive Enterprise can improve by suggesting to me I have duplicate files or some kind of duplicate feature. If it can give that kind of advice, it would be a great feature on a drive storage capability. There has to be some kind of machine learning to analyze individual data and provide recommendations."

"The product must be more secure."

"It's a cloud-based product that is stable and secure, but I would like to see more security features added."

"I had some issues with permissions at first. I have to ask for Drive permissions because I'm a new doctoral student. Sometimes I have to ask for permission because I can't access this kind of document, but recently they fixed that by adding me to their team. Now I can access any document that my department supervisors and staff share on Drive."

"There is really not too much that I think needs to be added to the product to improve it. Some of the features within Sheets could be enhanced so this product is a more complete replacement for Excel."

"In the free version, managing the files and folders and data is a little difficult."

"The feature for synchronization of data from multiple systems with the same single ID is not happening in Google Drive. This feature should be added. For example, if I have only one single mail ID and I'm using it in a different location to upload different data, this is the challenge. It is happening from one system or one server. The synchronization of data from the local system to Google Drive will not happen if the IDs are the same. If I'm using it for different systems in different locations, synchronization is not happening. The system hets logged out. This feature is very important for us and they need to add it."

More Google Drive Enterprise cons

"Their cloud services could be improved."

"I hope for improvements in the product's processing ability and performance."

"The problem with Huawei is that it generally oversells. As a principle, Huawei does not educate the partner or the end user enough to scale up their solution correctly."

"The initial setup and installation is not that straightforward. It should be made easier and the time to install should be reduced."

"The product needs improvement in terms of affordability."

"The solution’s support could be improved."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"If you need extra storage for the product, then you need to make certain payments towards the product's licensing charges."

"It is inexpensive and the cost is per user per month."

"Storage is the only product offered and that makes it expensive to use."

"The product is not expensive."

"In the free subscription, Google Drive Enterprise provides limited integrations. You get basic integration features, but for more extensive API usage, a paid subscription is required. Even with the paid subscription, there are limits on free API usage, such as a certain number of calls per day or month."

"You need to pay an extra cost to use more space."

"The costs could be lower, but they are reasonable for the value they provide."

"The product is available for free, so I don't need to pay for it."

More Google Drive Enterprise pricing and cost advice

"It is expensive but might be optimal based on the partnership."

"If one is a cheap solution and ten means it is a very expensive product, I would rate the price as two or three."
