Convenient, easy to set up, and has a nice user interface
Pros and Cons
  • "It is very convenient and easy to access."
  • "The solution is kind of expensive."

What is our primary use case?

I primarily use the solution to collaborate with my colleagues. We'll share documentation and use it as an archive. 

What is most valuable?

It's easy to share files.

We use Google Drive more than, for example, Google Hangouts. We also use email and calendars. 

We're a small company, and we've started using the Google solution, and it's worked well for us. 

It is very convenient and easy to access. 

The solution is stable.

It is scalable.

The solution is easy to set up.

What needs improvement?

The solution is kind of expensive. 

We need a bit more storage space.

Sometimes when we download files, it takes a long time to sync. We'd like files to be moved as easily as if we were moving something on a local disk. We want more drag-and-drop functionality. 

For how long have I used the solution?

I've been using the solution for ten years. 

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

It is stable. The solution is reliable. I'd rate it eight out of ten. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The solution is scalable. I'd rate it eight out of ten.

There are 30 users on the solution right now. 

How are customer service and support?

I've never dealt with technical support. If I need help, I reach out to my colleagues, and they might deal directly with Google. They have found the support helpful so far. 

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

I've used Dropbox in the past. Google is more convenient for me. I like the interface better and I find it easier to access files using Google. 

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup process is very simple. 

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The solution is a bit expensive. We need to keep buying more licensing in order to get more space. I'd rate the pricing six out of ten. 

What other advice do I have?

I'm a Google user.

Overall, I'd rate the solution eight out of ten. We are mostly happy with the product. I'd recommend the solution to others. 

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?

Good for sharing, searching and storage share
Pros and Cons
  • "Low maintenance solution."
  • "Record your meeting and simply share with anyone without thinking where to store the file."
  • "The ease of user sharing information among people in the organization is the most valuable feature of this solution."
  • "Google meets use of whiteboard is primitive making it difficult to demonstrate while talking."
  • "Google meets use of whiteboard is primitive making it difficult to demonstrate while talking."

What is our primary use case?

We utilize the Drive Enterprise for sharing, the search drive and the storage share.

What is most valuable?

The ease of user sharing information among people in the organization is the most valuable feature of this solution.

For example, when you have a meeting, you can record it and then simply share with anyone you would like. You don't have to think about where to put the file, everything is semi-automatic, everything is functional.

What needs improvement?

Microsoft Teams has a lot more features than Google. Google Meet allows you to collaborate by drawing on a whiteboard while talking in the meeting, however it is primitive and not user friendly as it is a bit challenging to try to demonstrate using the whiteboard.

For how long have I used the solution?

We have been using Google Drive since day one of our organization.

How are customer service and support?

Google Drive Enterprise is a low maintenance solution.

What other advice do I have?

If you don't need the added features of Microsoft Teams, Google Meet will satisfy the needs of collaboration and discussion. It is a good integration of Google. There has been no problems or issues. I would give it a 9 out of 10.

Excellent performance, feature rich, easy to scale, and easy to use
Pros and Cons
  • "Accessing their services is simple, user-friendly, and does not require a lot of technology."
  • "Accessing their services is simple, user-friendly, and does not require a lot of technology."
  • "When compared to Commvault or Veeam, I'm not sure what Google Drive has to offer in terms of backing up data on the cloud or in a data center for a large organization."
  • "When compared to Commvault or Veeam, I'm not sure what Google Drive has to offer in terms of backing up data on the cloud or in a data center for a large organization."

What is our primary use case?

I use Google Drive Enterprise for my personal use. I back up my files, photos, and other information I have stored on my mobile device, as well as my daily tasks, or whatever is done on my computer are backed up on my drive.

What is most valuable?

Accessing their services is simple, user-friendly, and does not require a lot of technology.

Google Drive Enterprise is easy to use.

What needs improvement?

Personally, I can't say what I don't like about Google Drive Enterprise because I haven't discovered anything better.

The price could be lower.

When compared to Commvault or Veeam, I'm not sure what Google Drive has to offer in terms of backing up data on the cloud or in a data center for a large organization.

For how long have I used the solution?

I've been using Google Drive for personal use for nine to ten years, and I've been a premium user for the last two years.

I'm using the most recent version. I use the web version rather than the app.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Google Drive Enterprise is a stable product.

Google Drive's performance is one of my favorite features. It doesn't take long to load, and everything happens instantly.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

I currently have more than 300 GB of data on my Google Drive. I don't believe that scaling would be an issue. It's easy to scale.

How are customer service and support?

We have never had any issues that required assistance from technical support.

How was the initial setup?

When using their web version, no setup is required. If I'm using an Android app, for example, I only need to configure my storage. In Google Drive, I have to define my storage and what I want to back up, and it backs it up ahead of time.

Because it's for personal use, I haven't had any issues with it, such as difficulty setting it up or anything like that. It's not like Veeam or a formal setup that requires many machines for that environment.

I am not using it on a large scale, it's for my personal usage only.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The licensing fees are not cheap, but when you compare it to other products and the features it provides, it's reasonable.

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

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

The management in my company has just decided to switch over to cloud backup solutions, which is why I have been researching the various websites for products that are best for my use.

I am exploring, but management will review the information and make a decision. I don't know what they're going to decide, so I don't have a say in it.

What other advice do I have?

My family does not have access to the credentials, but if they needed something backed up or saved, they would just give it to me to store safely on my cloud.

For personal use, I would definitely recommend this solution.

I would rate Google Drive Enterprise a ten out of ten.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Versatile, extremely useful, and is quite stable
Pros and Cons
  • "When we collaborate on a team project, everyone has the opportunity to contribute to the project."
  • "Personally, I believe it is a great solution for businesses, but it all depends on how many people you have working for you and what your main goal is."
  • "There are a few kinks to work out at first, but once you get the hang of it, it's pretty simple and extremely useful."
  • "There are a few kinks to work out at first, but once you get the hang of it, it's pretty simple and extremely useful."

What is our primary use case?

Because we work on projects, Google Drive is extremely versatile. It is interchangeable among users, and every one can edit at different times.

What is most valuable?

We are all in different parts of the world. When we collaborate on a team project, everyone has the opportunity to contribute to the project. There is a team leader who reviews and edits everything before we all get credit. It's pretty cool. I'm from a different era and teaching myself.

It's pretty straightforward. You have to have the right mindset for it, but it's pretty simple.

What needs improvement?

There are a few kinks to work out at first, but once you get the hang of it, it's pretty simple and extremely useful.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Google Drive Enterprise for two years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Google Drive Enterprise is quite stable.

How are customer service and support?

I have not contacted technical support.

If I have an issue, members of my group navigate me through it. I have never had to contact them.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The University of Phoenix provides it. I've never had to pay any fees.

What other advice do I have?

I'm happy with how things are going right now because I'm getting used to them. That's probably a question for later, when I am more acquainted with my business. I'm hoping to graduate in May, and I need to write a 40-page dissertation. This is a tutorial of what is to come for me.

Google Drive is popular in this generation because it is so interchangeable. People can look into your documents if you provide them with a password.

Personally, I believe it is a great solution for businesses, but it all depends on how many people you have working for you and what your main goal is.

It brings a project together, which is wonderful.

The world today fascinates me. I remember encyclopedias and going to the library to look at Microfiche.

I think that it is fabulous. I have my own practice. I am in Social Services. This information is good for me and the people I network with. I can bring anybody, I want in, I can create documents and have others look at it and give me advice. I enjoy Good Drive.

I would rate Google Drive Enterprise a ten out of ten.
