Overall Satisfaction with Apple iCloud
Apple iCloud makes it easy to sync videos and photos taken on my iPad to my Mac laptop. The photos and videos are readily available for me to edit and share to social media. iCloud is also used to sync documents that I work on with my iPad to my laptop as well. I never miss a beat when editing a presentation from one device to another.
- Documents are synced almost instantaneously.
- Photo sharing
- Backup feature
- I have an old Mac so it takes a little longer than I like for my photo library to load.
- Base storage is very limited, which requires you to purchase more space.
- Transfer of files is very slow for large file sizes.
- iCloud saves me time with syncing between my devices. Saving time saves me money.
- iCloud makes it easy for me to develop my presentations on my iPad and have them ready almost immediately on my Mac.
- iCloud allows me to work from anywhere because I can get my documents whenever I need them.
Google Drive comes packaged with my GSuite account so I still use it but it doesn't sync all of my Apple devices together. As a result, the device syncing makes iCloud a more important cloud service for my business. I do find that upload speeds to Google Drive tend to be faster than iCloud though.
