Overall Satisfaction with Google Drive

We keep a lot of marketing information on Google Drive, which helps ensure that everyone on the team sees the updated document and doesn't use outdated materials, from the brand book to the partner's logos. Additionally, we collaborate on our texts as a team. This is very convenient to work with text simultaneously; the comments, name tagging, and suggestions are beneficial.

Pros

  • Access levels.
  • Team work on one document simultaneously.
  • Folders.

Cons

  • I'd like to have more space for free.
  • Small selection of document templates.
  • It's hard to format tables properly.
  • It makes the job faster.
  • It minimizes mistakes, like taking the old information into the work.
  • It reduces stress of sending a lot of files and losing them.
It is mostly easy to use. Documents can be created from scratch or downloaded from existing templates. Formatting is not ideal, but in most cases, documents downloaded as ODT, Word, Excel, etc., look decent. Google Drive supports most of the traditional office formats. Video and audio players are sometimes too slow, but Google Drive still works as a storage solution for them.
Google Drive is more accessible and doesn't require additional implementation, downloading, and synchronization. You need a Google account. It makes it the first-choice instrument when working with non-technically savvy team members or clients. There are no complicated interfaces or overly advanced options, so it doesn't intimidate people who aren't into all that digital stuff.

Do you think Google Drive delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Google Drive's feature set?

Yes

Did Google Drive live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Google Drive go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Google Drive again?

Yes

It is a very good instrument if you need a space to store your working documents, keep all the information updated, and collaborate on documents from different locations. Just make sure it is not top-secret information, because, as I understand, it can be indexed by Google search if the settings are not configured correctly.
