What differentiates Google Drive from other similar products?

The support of Google's other software makes Google Cloud Drive Enterprise from other similar products.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The Graphical User Interface of this product is so clean and anyone can easily drag and upload their data very quickly into it. The other favorite aspect is there is free cloud service for every user up to 15 GB available. The pricing is also affordable for this product. Interestingly, we can access from anyplace all over the World the information transferred in Google Drive by a solitary sign in process. It's likewise an awesome method for sharing information through a drive link.

What do you dislike most about this product?

There is difficulty to search the document from Google Drive and there is also no support of search history. The interface is very plain and straightforward it should be attractive and more user friendly.

What differentiates Google Drive from other similar products?

Google Drive is all about simplicity and speed. With its compatibility with any web browser I have used to access it, fast synchronization regardless of the number of devices, it is the most simplistic and fast file storage cloud platform I have laid my hands on.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Google Drive brings with it, a host of other applications for spreadsheeting, presentations, note-taking , documentations etc There is no other file storage program that matches Google Drive in terms of the quality of its add-on tools.

What do you dislike most about this product?

If I had to save very sensitive files, Google Drive may not be my first choice. This is because of the lack of an authentication protocol between Google Drive and integrated email accounts. Which always means that once I have access to my email account, I can access Google Drive and every other integrated add-on applications.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

For convenience, file synchronization and ease of use, Google Drive is the ultimate file storage tool.
