The ability to collaborate and share specific documents or full folders is fantastic. The amount of storage for free is fantastic and if you need more space the price is affordable.
I was using thumb drives and external hard drives to store my files to have access to them on the go, but they always fail at some point and if I didn't have a back up copy the files were lost.
The software is very good as it has the signature Google interface which means everything is very understandable and intuitive. It integrates wonderfully with the rest of Google's ecosystem.
The only trouble I've had with Google Drive has to do with the windows software which has caused me some problems.
Google drive is extremely easy to use, their collaborations features are amazing, the fact that everything is immediately saved on the cloud is the best.
I hate the lack of file organization. It looks like a mess and difficult to find documents.
As part of Google products, Drive is a must for everyone's work and personally. Outstanding and even giving you free storage which you can enlarge if you want and when you need to.
As with all Google products: bad support, lack of continuous improvements, lack of basic features, and horrible UI for the advanced features.
I have all my important documents and files saved in it and my photos are saved and it backs everything up.
I don't hate anything so far but when you forget your login details it renders the iPhone useless. So always keep your login.
First of all, iCloud is super easy to use and cheap. I do really appreciate the ease of syncing for example documents and photos with all of the Apple devices that you have.
I had a problem trying to opening my files on my android tabs and keep on interrupting my transfer process.
My experience with iCloud is positive, highlighting its ease of use, real-time synchronization, secure document storage, and the ease of collaborating on projects and documents with others.
There are some issue that people icloud has been breach and data has been leaked. I take it seriously and had adding more security to the account.
I loved how easy and flexible it is. It allows for me to link my files and share with my clients, as a health coach its a great.
I switched my iPhone for an Android device, and to my surprise, I couldn't access my uploaded files on my new phone. I also lost access to my iCloud email—shame on you, Apple.
Diego: My name is Diego, and I work with Youth With A Mission. We're 16 people on staff, and my rating on Google Drive is a four. We use Google Drive to share documents, share information with each other, follow up on projects or specific tasks that we have. So Google Drive is very useful for that purpose. Yeah, I love Google Drive because it allows us to connect with each other. Very easy. It's super easy to navigate, so I think Google Drive is very... There's different apps within or different interfaces within Google Drive that you're able to share documents, and it makes it easy just to work together as a team. One thing I wish that Google Drive would have is... just so it's more compatible with Office documents, like Word and Excel. I know there's their versions in Google, but I wish there's an easy way to make those compatible, easier to navigate. And I also wish there would be maybe plans of storage that are a little bit cheaper. Sometimes they can be a little expensive, but other than that, Google Drive is very useful.
Francisco: Hi, I'm Francisco. I'm a Chief's Editor, and I give iCloud four out of five stars. For more review like this, click below. Other software that I tried is the Google Suite, specifically, Google Drive. I also tried OneDrive, Dropbox, a lot of software before using iCloud. The other software is great for Windows and maybe Linux, but when working in Apple products, I really like to use iCloud. Yeah. Well, the main reason is that you need to have diversity in the company when using multiple platforms, but specifically for Apple products, iCloud is very, very easy to use. Integrations are very... Close compatibility between Apple devices is really easy to use. Yeah. Well, it is not really hard. It depends on how many Apple devices you have. If you don't have the need to use it, well, it will be a little bit difficult because integration with Windows and other smartphone platforms is not very intuitive and you have to use... I don't know. For example, Windows, you have to use Chrome for integrate iCloud, the Keychain, for example. But if you already have many Apple devices in your company, it is not really a problem. You just have to log in, you have to have your account, and that's it. Well, the first recommendation, it will be, if you manage a lot of accounts, for example, you're an IT and you get in charge of all the email of the employees, right? You have to remember all those passwords and accounts and all of that. Sure you can save them anywhere, or you can check it in your IT software, but you can also use Keychain. It's like, "Oh, wait. I need to check this accountant in my cell phone, or in my Mac." Yeah. And then you just log in. Your biometric security is all that you need, and you have access to all that information. So, I think that is really cool.
