I love that I can access my photos from any device, in real time. I take pictures with my phone, and they are automatically uploaded to my Google Photos account and viewable from my computer immediately. It also allows me to make Albums, which helps with organization. It is very easy to use. Cons My only complaint is that I have only learned how to save pictures from my Google Photos account to my computer hard drive one at a time. I have not learned how to save several at once, if this is a possibility. It may be a feature that I haven't figured out. So I am saving pictures individually, which takes up some time. But other than that, this software is amazing. Review Source MR Mohan R.
