Overall Satisfaction with Google Drive

Google Drive, (to my knowledge) is being used by our organization. We use it in my department to share files and easily find SOP documents, schedules and other shared files we need to be able to update and access easily. We are able to see real time updates to schedules and share updates regulary and immediately. I find it fairly simplet to use with the exception of naming formats, what is easy for one person to use or remember may be very different for another. Some use department, etc. Naming is the one thing I find challenging but do appreciate the ability to use this for almost all documents we can share with anyone within the organization.
  • Real time changes in documents particulary schedules
  • Share documents with unlimited individuals or groups
  • Allows users to request access to documents
  • Automatically date stamp when changes have been made
  • Set file naming suggestions
  • Sharing Documents
  • Real-time Updates
  • Access to make updates
  • Easier to do my job with easy access to important information
  • Real-time updates to schedules that impact daily work
  • Search SOP documents to be more self sufficient
I personally like Google Drive for the many reasons I've listed, easy to search, real-time updates and I also like that I can see the creator or owner of the document to ensure I'm in the intended document. I can also be sure I'm seeing real time updates and the same documents as my colleages. I appreciate being able to see who else is viewing the document.

I appreciate Google drive will suggest documents on days that I typically access them and show my recently access files first. Search is fairly simple and sharing documents is easy. I love being able to see real time updats in documents and sharing with groups, particularly schedules and product details.
