Overall Satisfaction with Google Drive
We use Google Drive as part of the GSuite line of products. We use Google Drive to provide 'at rest' encryption of data and to facilitate an easy way for staff to share and collaborate on files. The product is easy to use and provides flexibility for our employees and students so they can work from anywhere.

- Sometimes the search feature hangs or does not locate documents

- The cost cannot be beat
- The GSuite is great for students
- Google encryption is a huge plus
We are also a Microsoft school in addition to GSuite. The Microsoft products don't seem to flow as well in my opinion. I also have had serious synchronization issues with OneDrive. I found OneDrive a little more difficult to navigate when looking for files within folders. OneDrive just did not seem as intuitive or flow as well as Google Drive. It is also easier for our institution to use due to already being logged into GMail with is our email platform.
