Pros

“It completely eliminates the need for email attachments or physical flash drives. Despite minor UI clutter and the occasional need to manually clean up folders, it remains my go-to platform for cloud storage and team collaboration.”
RG

Ritesh G.

Fullstack Developer

“We use it with several vendors and when they send me a document because they are sending it to my work email, but my log-in is set to my personal Google account, it requires requesting permissions or logging out and back in.”

Patrick C.

VP Strategy

“Google Drive provides me with a cloud storage that makes it possible for me to always have access to my stored documents from anywhere and whenever i need to use them.”
DH

Daniel H.

Senior Lecturer

Pros

I signed up to download videos from someone who stores on Mega - when I try to download I get the error “insufficient disk space” even though the video is only 1GB and I have 15GB free on my iPad and 3TB free in Mega.
LH

Lady H.

CEO

“I like the file sharing capability and storage even with the free version it will allow a certain amount of upload and download size for free.”
WL

Whitney L.

Small Business Owner

“I use it for sharing files and for storing large photos/videos i can’t keep on my device”
LM

Lorenzo M.

Web developer

Cons

“Additionally, I hate the updated cost/storage structure where my emails count towards my Drive storage and if I want more than 15 GB I have to pay a monthly subscription or delete important/sentimental emails.”

Sara S.

Client Relations Coordinator

“One drawback of Google Drive is that the free storage space can fill up quickly when storing large files, requiring users to upgrade to a paid plan.”
PP

Piyusha P.

Customer service

“Customer support for free users is somewhat limited, and recovering accidentally deleted files beyond retention periods can be challenging. While bugs are uncommon, minor performance issues can occasionally affect large file operations.”
PP

Customer service

Cons

“Also, pricing is not great compared to other vendors.”
MA

Md A.

Graduate Assistant

“So I was fraudulently charged over $100 and still can’t download the videos.”
LH

Lady H.

CEO

“They scammed me - I signed up for 1 month and they charged me for 1 year.”
