My files are safe

Likeliness to Recommend

8 /10

What differentiates Google Drive from other similar products?

Google Drive's encryption is better than iCloud's for keeping private information safe. It's where I keep important work on my computer.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

AES 256-bit encryption locks my clients' contracts, which is required by law. To make links even safer, like for formal documents, I can set passwords for them. The vault keeps files for checks, which protects me.

What do you dislike most about this product?

There is no zero-knowledge encryption, so I encrypt very important things on the outside. One time, I was worried that shared links didn't have a built-in lock, and a client opened an old file. The support bot was slow and sent me to FAQs that didn't help me.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Drive's security is strong enough to keep your files safe, but you can add your own for top secrets.

Pros

  • Enables Productivity
  • Efficient Service
  • Over Delivered
  • Security Protects

What differentiates Google Drive from other similar products?

Google Drive is known for its real-time collaboration, as multiple people can work on the same file at the same time without slowing it down or making it lost in data.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Google Drive automatically saves my work and retains the previous version of the file as well, allowing me to restore my files in case someone on my team made changes that were not necessary.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Free users are limited to 15 GB of space.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

If you want to explore cloud storage before going fully in on it, then you must check it out because I am sure you are not going to regret your decision about it.

Pros

  • Continually Improving Product
  • Performance Enhancing
  • Enables Productivity
  • Trustworthy

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

If the security of your data, stability and reliability are important, there is no better product in this product segment.
